2023-08-06 — So Spatial

Exhausted.

Day before yesterday, I went to bed early hoping to get good sleep, but I just ended up waking up really early after poor sleep anyway.

Because that’s how I roll. πŸ™ƒ

I’ve also noticed lately, I’m not sure what the deal is, but I seem to be losing spatial awareness. I go to grab something and think I have it, but I drop it. I bump into doors and accidentally trip over things. It’s been about a week now? It’s really weird, and it’s actually kind of concerning.

Why on earth would my body be losing its sense of spatial awareness?

Hey Spencer okay chunk of the day just cleaning up my room and cleaning out stuff. Trying to thin out and simplify. Trying to reduce the number of outside pressures that press against me, yelling for my attention.

Looks like I might have found a buyer for Mama’s fainting couch. So that’s nice. That’ll give her a few extra dollars in her pocket and a few more square feet of space in her bedroom. πŸ₯³

Next up on the chopping block for her is her little rolling liquor cabinet but of course she doesn’t use as a liquor cabinet. πŸ˜…

I also found out that One of my friends from Utah is getting married. He’s a few years older than I am, and he’s getting married for the first time, so I guess that gives me a little bit of hope. He’s a good looking, popular guy, and He dated all the time, and I think had plenty of women interested in him, but it just never seemed to be right.

Congratulations to him! πŸ₯³

Here’s to hope for me. πŸ™ƒ

But as he says, the miracle happened. πŸ₯³

Funny enough, he found someone whom I’m thinking might actually be related to me? Her last name is Lusty, and we’ve got Lusty’s in our family tree on my mom’s side.

His getting married is good timing because I was planning on a trip to Utah already, so this helps me focus in on the timing part of it and gets the ball rolling. My cousin will also be back in the country (and Utah) for a little while visiting home from where she’s been living in Ireland for the last handful of years.

We’ve got a lot to take out to Utah and beyond. We’re bringing the antique couch to Jared, and we might be bringing a massive number of books to try to sell at the local bookstore in salt lake City in an effort to help us pay for the huge gas bill of the trip. Super pricey because we’re going to probably end up using one of my work vans, as those are the only vehicles we have big enough to take a couch, not to mention all those books That might be going with us.

We’ll see.

Did I mention one of my Google business accounts is suspended?

Yeah.

Ugh.

Is what it is. I’ll deal with it as best I can.

Lift the world.

  1. Chronic lack of sleep makes my coordination go out the window. That’s when I start spilling things, dropping everything, and injuring myself doing ordinary tasks… Count yourself happily abnormal for *not* experiencing klutz syndrome regularly with your chronic sleeplessness!

    I could be wrong, but selling the books at even the Sam Weller (I guess it’s now Weller Book Works) is probably *not* going to pay for much gas!! I’ve sold books at establishments that price them out while you wait, including Sam Weller years ago, and each time the return was ridiculously small. It’s not worth the hassle to bring them. But if you don’t mind a comparative pittance of cash for piles of books (yes, even antique books, unless they’re rare!) then maybe it’s worth the hassle… maybe? If you decide to do it anyway, let me know how you fare! I would love to be wrong! πŸ™‚

    1. Thx!!! I’m definitely dealing with a chronic lack of sleep. Really hoping that my visit to the doctor tomorrow will set me on a path for getting my, what I’m assuming is going to be a hiatal hernia diagnosis, on the road to repair, so that maybe, just maybe, I’ll be able to sleep lying down and actually start sleeping again.

      Sam Weller’s actually did me pretty well when I was selling my massive library before I went out to Arkansas, so I’m hopeful that maybe they’ll be enough to pay for at least a decent chunk of the gas. We’ll see. πŸ™ƒ I know they have to make their money, so I don’t expect them to give me a lot, but anything is better than nothing, and I’m hoping they’ll do me at least as well as they did me last time. 🀞
