2021-05-06 — Another Reconnection

Hiya, folks.

It’s been quite the day for me today. I slept in a bit and took it pretty easy with work stuff, just doing three very simple jobs (no start, he’d run out of gas; running rough, had a bad coil; and no start… needed a battery). Taking it easy with work stuff was good because I had a very unexpected reconnection today.

I had a former high school student of mine reach out to me this morning. There’s a lot of history in our friendship, and hadn’t been in touch in like… 8 years? It’s been really neat to chat today.

Anyway, so much I could say, but it’ll have to be another day. I’m really tired and need to go to bed

Overall, it’s been a really good day, but also quite challenging. There have been a ton of big things converging today, and two very big new things came into the picture today. Big big things. I’ll write more when I’m not exhausted and when things unfold enough.

Suffice it to say, I’m tired and overwhelmed right now, and I’m a tad nervous/anxious, but I’m good.

#1. I’m grateful my truck is holding up as my work vehicle while I try and get this assessment finished, so I can get going using the van.

#2. I’m grateful for the lovely weather.

#3. I’m grateful for my old friend/student Kaylla for reaching out and supporting and encouraging during this great time of struggle for me in my life.

#4. I’m grateful that though I’m overwhelmed to a large degree, I’m still calm. Just my brain is darting around from thing to thing to thing.

#5. I’m grateful that I’ve been taking it easier lately with work. Fewer jobs, not pushing as hard. Progress. I hope.

Loves and hugs to all. 🙂

Lift the World.
