Up late, up early, and lots and lots of car work today. I saw the title of yesterday's post, and it seems so long ago already. It's crazy how time is. So fast. Slow. Anyway, 1st car was one that was running rough and had a passenger window that was stuck down. The rough running … Continue reading 2022-06-18 — Thermo… nuclear meltdown

Well, the best news of the day is that the junkyard in Oklahoma gave me a full refund for the engine that I bought. I brought it back this morning after a bit of a fight trying to get it loaded into my work van. I was unsuccessful getting it into the work van, which … Continue reading 2022-06-17 — 0 for 2

Once again, I was up super super late, and then I just wake up... earlier than what you'd think my body would need with sleep. I think I went to bed around... 5? And I got up before 10, I think, and I felt fine. I swear I have the weirdest body rhythms. It's been … Continue reading 2022-06-16 — Crossing Fingers

Really rough day. Really struggling. I keep trying to move forward with the significant other area of my life after the mess of the last 12 years, but I can't. It's like it's not in my DNA to be able to move forward without answers. I trusted what I thought was right so much... and … Continue reading 2022-06-15 — Under the Piles

Hola, folkses. 🙂 Happy... Tuesday? I think it's Tuesday. Was up late again... I think? Gosh... it's all flowing together. I seriously thought about taking the day off. I actually made a small effort to do that, having only one job I'd promised for today, but I was so worn out (I think the heat … Continue reading 2022-06-14 — More Than I Thought

Hola, folks! After being up until after five with my internal gas production machine running well past overdrive (sometimes, it felt like I single handedly could reduce energy costs in the US if they'd just tap into my wonderful Apricot goodness. 😬 Feeling much better now, gratefully. No more apricots for me, thank you very … Continue reading 2022-06-13 — Engine Out

So... I ate a whole bunch of tried apricots right before bed... and now... here we are hours later, and my bowels are still quite unhappy with me. ...and heart burn. It's 4:15 a.m. Ugh. 😬 Not the smartest choices. 🙃 Gonna be a hot... at least couple of weeks. Today was brutal. Tomorrow will … Continue reading 2022-06-12 — Too Many Apricots

Another journal entry being dictated as I head home. It's been a really long, frustrating day. The first job went just fine. It was just a bad battery, so I replaced that, and all was great. The next job stood me up, so that was annoying, especially since I'd already done all the quotes and … Continue reading 2022-06-11 — Brake Nightmare

Hola, folks. 🙂 Happy Friday! I was supposed to have my alarm wake me up at 6:30, or something like that, but it never went off. I even had backup alarms set a little later, but... none of them went off, so I slept until like 7:30 or so. I was trying to get up … Continue reading 2022-06-10 — Get Your Motor Runnin’

Life was a lot more straightforward when I solidly believed in God and what I thought I knew about life and eternity and whatnot. It's not so straightforward now. I don't really believe or disbelieve anything that I used to believe, I just have pretty much everything up in the air, and in the midst … Continue reading 2022-06-09 — Pensive
