Still no recluses! Is that three days in a row sans new 🕷️ in the traps? After several days in a row of spidies, it's nice to feel like I've got them under control. I might just be fooling myself, but it seems like I've definitely turned the corner. 🤞 Anyway, I slept in a … Continue reading 2024-07-20 — Pool of Oil

2024-07-19 — Crumbled, But Sans Job Box
Believe it or not, it was a cold night last night. 🥳 That was so nice! I actually grabbed my little secondary blanket. It was great. The weather has significantly cooled off. Highs in the 80s for like a week or 10 days straight. We even have one day with a high of 79, I … Continue reading 2024-07-19 — Crumbled, But Sans Job Box
2024-07-18 — No Spiders
Rough day. I had heartburn most of the night, but being in my van, there was no recliner to get into too ease the suffering by changing the angle of my body. I propped up blankets and pillows as best I could, but it was not the greatest night. Long, very little sleep. I think … Continue reading 2024-07-18 — No Spiders
2024-07-17 — Sun Clothes
Didn't leave my van today until like 4:00 in the afternoon. I slept a long time. And then I just wasted time on YouTube and what not. I'm... not well. My angel mother did my laundry for me, And that's what got me out of my van (her coming to bring it to me). She's … Continue reading 2024-07-17 — Sun Clothes

Find two more brown recluses in sticky traps in the little compartments where the TV used to be. Those could have been there for a couple of days. Not sure. They were still alive, so I put them down. I set up several more traps before I closed my eyes to go to sleep. That's … Continue reading 2024-07-16 — Fading

Another spider in a sticky trap. Couldn't actually tell if it was a brown recluse or not, so maybe not, as recluses are usually pretty easy to identify. Gratefully, the crappier jump Box was able to run my little fan all night. By the time I got up, the fan was definitely slower, but it … Continue reading 2024-07-15 — Velociraptor
2024-07-14 — Opposite Day
When did it become so hard for me to make decisions? Even little stupid ones. Like how to get rid of a shirt that's been worn only once, basically brand new, but has a little tear in the back because I caught it on something sharp inside ET during our road trip last year. It's … Continue reading 2024-07-14 — Opposite Day
2024-07-13 (Saturday) — To-Do Frenzy
I don't know how it happened, but somehow today I was focused and more motivated than I have been in a very long time. 🥳 🙏 Maybe a little bit of it comes as I looked at my badly sun damaged skin from years of working outdoors without sunscreen or long sleeves or anything and … Continue reading 2024-07-13 (Saturday) — To-Do Frenzy
2024-07-12 (Friday) — Books Given Away… Check.
All right, it's 10:30, and now it's time for me to try and remember what happened today. Let's see... First thing this morning, I gathered up some trash from down by the greenhouse area to put in the dumpster because it was Friday in the trash truck was coming at some point. I got up … Continue reading 2024-07-12 (Friday) — Books Given Away… Check.
2024-07-11 — Fence Up or Bust
Not much to report today. I'm beyond exhausted. I significantly overdid it physically today. I've been wanting to get all of the fence posts put up around the pond area. I said I was going to do that, and I got started, and then it was so hard pounding the posts in, but then it … Continue reading 2024-07-11 — Fence Up or Bust
