Been quite the day today. I spent the morning trying to figure out how to use the Google Form I was so excited about. It... might not work. Google designed it to auto create a new row. And auto creating a new row means all my pre-filled cells get bumped off the row, and all … Continue reading 2022-10-02 — Double Trouble

2022-07-27 — Really Crappy Day, but We Got Some Rain
It's been a really really really really really really really crappy day. It started out with me getting a late start, and then I went to the Rogers autozone, and they took absolutely forever to get me my parts, and then we went to the first job. And they didn't order the parts properly, so … Continue reading 2022-07-27 — Really Crappy Day, but We Got Some Rain
2022-07-26 — 90 Million Miles An Hour
Well, folks, it's been a whirlwind of a day. I'm scrambling trying to get everything as ready as I can before my departure back to Utah on Thursday, but I keep running out of time each day 🙃, and I am just... tired. I keep thinking, oh, I'll pound it out tonight (some of the … Continue reading 2022-07-26 — 90 Million Miles An Hour
2022-07-25 — Utah, Reprise
Bought my ticket back to Utah today. I'll be flying in on Thursday, getting into SLC just before midnight. Not sure how long I'll be staying. My guess is it'll be a week or two, but we'll see. My aunt is fading a good bit, and I want to make it back before she loses … Continue reading 2022-07-25 — Utah, Reprise
2022-07-24 — Where to Plant the Roots?
Howdy, folks. 🙂 Time keeps flying on by. July is quickly coming to an end, and life is as crazy as ever. Slept in a bit today. Think I had weird dreams? I don't remember. I've had some interesting ones lately, and I don't usually remember my dreams. After getting up, I went in to … Continue reading 2022-07-24 — Where to Plant the Roots?
2022-07-23 — Super Exhausted
I'm exhausted. Body hurts all over. Feel like I've been hit by a car. 🙃 Long day (8:30-9:30 ish). Decent day. Very tired. Very tired. 7 cars. Malaki was with me all day. He's a super quick learner. Looks like he could work out. I'm excited about that. So tired. Lots to write, but I'm … Continue reading 2022-07-23 — Super Exhausted
2022-07-22 — Weird
Time is weird. It feels like I've been back home for... a long time already. But it's barely been 1 1/2 days. 🙃 Up relatively early to meet both potential techs in Bella Vista--the young kid and the woman. They both have a long ways to go before they could be independent mechanics. I'm feeling … Continue reading 2022-07-22 — Weird
2022-07-21 — Little Boy Tired
I set my alarm last night for 3:45 this morning, but then I woke up at like 3:25. I dozed a little bit, but in the end, I just got up before the 3:45 alarm went off. I spent a little while organizing the stuff in my Civic until Cory came out. I'm leaving my … Continue reading 2022-07-21 — Little Boy Tired
2022-07-20 — A Bit of Regress
Good day. Tough day. I got up early to be sure that I was available for the mechanic that I was trying out on a few jobs today. She was driving down from Noel, Missouri. It didn't go well at all. 😕 First of all, she was 20 plus minutes late to the first job, … Continue reading 2022-07-20 — A Bit of Regress
2022-07-19 — Rumblings of Change
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 … Continue reading 2022-07-19 — Rumblings of Change
