So tired right now. I'll be in bed by 11! Yay! I have until like 2:30 to cancel my trip down under with a full refund, but... I'm gonna sleep through that deadline and... go on the trip. 🙃 I only got like 3 hours of sleep last night, so I'm looking forward to crashing. … Continue reading 2022-08-11 — To Bed, Sir. To bed.

Do you think days can just be... cursed? I mean... there are days where pretty much everything seems to go wrong. And I just wonder... "gosh, how is it possible for all these crazy things to go wrong in one day?!?!" Today was one of those days... so much went sideways, from the very beginning. … Continue reading 2022-08-10 — From Cursed to Adventure

I was supposed to be in bed a good while ago. 🙃 But I'll be there shortly. Not much to say today. 5 cars. It was supposed to storm all day today, but gratefully, I only got sprinkled on. Malaki stayed home after a long day yesterday and the expected thunderstorms, so I was flying … Continue reading 2022-08-09 — Just A Sprinkle

Hiya, folks!? Happy Monday! Up late. Up early. Phone started ringing off the hook even before 8 a.m. So. Many. Calls. Today. It's safe to say that the replenishment of the schedule after being out of town and having to work back up to super busy has arrived. We are replenished. We are--super busy again. … Continue reading 2022-08-08 — Gratiback

I think I mentioned I was tired yesterday. Well, I'm tired again. 🙃 I feel like I'm getting old. The joints get all stiff after just short periods of time in the same position. The body hurts in so many places and gets injured so easily. I'm just now feeling like my hip, injured a … Continue reading 2022-08-07 — Brown Army

Oh, I'm tired. Just plain worn out today. It's been a typical hot and humid Arkansas day, with the last several work hours taking place on the hot, radiating blacktop. The sweat just poured. After the rain we received, the humidity has returned, so instead of 103 degrees and super hot but relatively dry air … Continue reading 2022-08-06 — This Day in August

Hiya, boys and girls. 🙂 Happy Friday! Hope y'all have had a fantastic one. I sit here at my computer... 1:25 a.m., staring at the flight plan of a trip I'm contemplating. New Zealand, at the least, and Australia as well if I want. Month and a half? Should I do it? Deal is offered … Continue reading 2022-08-05 — Slow Yard

Hiya, folks! It rained! And rained! And rained. 😶 Three-ish inches, I think, in this last round of storms; but Malaki needs work hours, so though I normally would have taken the day off and rested, I went out and worked with him. Just two cars, but a relatively full day. A soggy day. First … Continue reading 2022-08-04 — Soggy

I took it a little easier today--just two cars. Malaki was home feeling pretty rotten. First car as was one that was supposed to be a crank, no start, but it started just fine when I got there. So I gave him some suggestions for how to proceed and be ready. He didn't have a … Continue reading 2022-08-03 — Nothing Special

I don't really have much to say today. I didn't sleep much last night on the floor of the Salt Lake Airport. I forgot to bring my sweatshirt and sweatpants (airports and airplanes often being cold, as I'm sure you know, so the cold made it even harder to sleep, but I think I got … Continue reading 2022-08-02 — Arkansas… Again
