Hey all, Today was a repeat of yesterday. Good to see family, cousins I hadn't seen in years. My sister from South Dakota, a 1st cousin once removed, I believe is the proper relation, etc. Love and hugs. Yep. Good to see them. Personally, I'm doing much worse. I'm fighting the internal battle between not … Continue reading 2022-07-12 — Repeat

Happy 7-11 Day. 🙂 Did you get your free slurpee? It's been good to spend time with family today. It's also been hard. I'm not doing well. It's time for me to go to bed, so I guess this is all you're going to get today. Love and hugs. Lift the World ~ stephen

Tossed and turned, my brain churning and churning. A million thoughts racing and keeping me awake. When I finally feel asleep again, I had a dream that things were finally possible with a special someone, after waiting and waiting and waiting, but then... she didn't want me. Not a very fun dream. But that's ok. … Continue reading 2022-07-10 — My Favorite Canyon

Hiya, folks. It's been a hard, rough, painful day. I'm tired. I'm discouraged. I'm lonely. It was a day with ups and downs, like every other. I'm just... yeah. Catch y'all tomorrow. Love and hugs. Lift the World ~ stephen

My sense of time is all a jumble. I can't remember clearly what's happened on what day since I've been here. But I'm pretty sure that was the day that I found out that my aunt will be bidding farewell to this life soon. With all the complications, she's chosen to let it all run … Continue reading 2022-07-08 — Family… Gathering

Hola, folks. 🙂 Happy... Thursday? Slept in the hospital parking lot after visiting my aunt. Slept decently well. Visited my aunt again in the morning and also chatted a bit with an uncle and briefly with a cousin. Good to see everyone. My aunt wanted to take a nap, so I headed up to Salt … Continue reading 2022-07-07 — Catching Up

Woke up about 6:30 this morning after an undisturbed night in the back seat of my Civic. I figured that it was a good time to switch spots, heading up the canyon, so I did. But I ran into an awkward issue right away. I turned the car on without unlocking the doors first, and … Continue reading 2022-07-06 — Pull My Finger, Magneto

Hiya, folks. I'm parked beside a cemetery about to bed down for the night. I've stayed here before, so it's... familiar. Been a long day. After leaving yesterday and 8:30 ish. I drove all night for about 10 hours or so, finally stopping when the sun came up. I noticed that the cut on the … Continue reading 2022-07-05 — Utah

Just passed Kearney, NE. Been driving all night. It's about 5:35 a.m. My mom is trying to sleep in the seat next to me. Sort of an impromptu trip. My aunt has had some major health issues and is in the ICU, so we're meeting my sister in Nebraska and then heading to Utah. I'm … Continue reading 2022-07-04 — Road Trip!

Was doing okay. Then I wasn't. Didn't do anything today. Maybe tomorrow. ~ stephen
