Stayed the night at the Walmart in Payson, UT last night and then headed over to my aunt and uncle’s house to visit my dying aunt again. I stayed there most of the day, visiting with my aunt, helping my other aunt and uncle with rearranging their garage for some stuff they were trying to get done. I also fixed an issue with their Toyota Camry.
I scheduled some cars to fix for my potential new contract worker. I’m hoping it goes well. Three cars on the schedule for tomorrow. Crossing my fingers. With her getting started tomorrow and with multiple other people applying to work for me right now, I decided to head back to Arkansas for a little bit to get things organized and whatnot. I shipped my tools home via USPS (as it would have been super expensive to carry them on the plane, though thinking about it now, I probably should have just carried them on with me, as I’d be able to fix cars as soon as I got home, but maybe it’s a good thing that I won’t be able to. It’ll force me to work on getting back to an orchestrator/manager and not the laborer.
It would be nice to get back to that. Maybe get me closer to the possibility of selling the business. That would be… super, if I could get it sold for a good price!
Anyway… so I bought a plane ticket for early Thursday morning, but my new little mechanic will be starting tomorrow morning, so we’ll see how it goes–hiring and risking from afar.
Crossing fingers.
I think I’m repeating myself.
Went out to dinner with my oldest brother. That was good. It’s been nice to grow closer with him over the last couple weeks that I’ve been here.
I’m really tired. Need to go to bed because I need to get up to be ready to help my new potential tech. Time for bed.
Where am I going to live? I’ve loved being back in my little Provo Canyon paradise. But the smog started rolling in today, and it is hard to be here emotionally, and the cost of housing is insane, and it’s… so. blasted. crowded here.
(sigh)
I wish I could have my mountains and my country living at the same time.
It’s been another pretty good day. I’m feeling lonely, but I’m ok.
Sorry if this isn’t really understandable. I’m not quite with it.
Tired. Actually staying in a bed tonight. 🙃
Love and hugs.
