I think I slept about 12 hours last night. Or 13. 🙃 It's 1:37 a.m. Been a long day. 7 cars. One lawnmower, and turning in my sales tax stuff for June because the 20th is my deadline, and I have no idea when I'll get back from work tomorrow. Busy busy day. Got up, … Continue reading 2021-07-19 — When Else?

I'm feeling a tad better today. It's 6:55. Way early to be writing, but I'm exhausted. I spent time walking the creek in my bare feet. I'm home. I'm exhausted. Falling asleep... Might write more later. ~ stephen

I'm writing this on my phone while lying on my back in bed. It's 1:03 a.m. It's been a rough day. A three-hour job took seven (10ish over two days, actually). I got really angry. I'm back nearly 100% to where I was last February 2020)... no faith, quick to anger, feeling trapped, discouraged, demoralized... … Continue reading 2021-07-17 — What For?

With any luck, I'll be in bed before midnight. I didn't work today. I wasn't feeling well--exhausted from all the short nights and long days and over the edge physically. Today was the closest I've gotten to a full blown crash since I started taking the migraine stuff when starting to feel on edge. I … Continue reading 2021-07-16 — Before Midnight

I'm really looking forward to bed. It's midnight:11 over here. I've busted my little hiney all week. Little sleep, long work days. Been pretty crazy, and I'm exhausted. I might actually sleep in a little bit tomorrow... Get a full night's sleep. Been a while. I did seven more cars today. Probably tied a personal … Continue reading 2021-07-15 — To Sleep In

Won't take too much to improve upon a 4:30 a.m. bed time. 🙃 I'm out of my dragging, but not quite back into happiness. Just... working working working. That's an improvement at least. 🙂 As far as the jobs... 2003 Durango overheat issue. 2012 Fiat 500 thermostat replacement. Pre-purchase inspection for a 2012 Camry. Diagnosis … Continue reading 2021-07-14 — Sleep?

Seven cars today. No records. Just lots and lots of work. Running and gunning the day away on four hours of sleep. First one... gentleman needed help with his fuel pump (Tahoe), getting it back in. Turns out O'reilly's gave him the wrong part, and the poor man had spent I think four days trying … Continue reading 2021-07-13 — Running and Gunning

I was able to get out and work today. So... that's something. Did... four cars today? AC charge and dye injection (in an effort to find a leak in the AC system). Funny, turned out to be a young couple from our branch. Then it was to a 2011 Honda Pilot that they said needed … Continue reading 2021-07-12 — Gained Some Ground

I was gonna do some thinking today. I didn't. I didn't leave my room but for moments. I wasted my whole day watching Poldark... And I still can't tear myself away from it, even as I write this... I'm paralyzed. Avoiding life. And yet... I can't avoid it. I have business deadlines that are banging … Continue reading 2021-07-11 — Lost

So many things on my mind. So little to say. I guess I'll just recap the day... Sorry... not very interesting lately. My mom helped me drag the van I'm trying to sell back up the hill this morning, and then I went out and did two jobs before the funeral, a tranny fluid leak … Continue reading 2021-07-10 — A Mix
