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
2022-07-06 — Pull My Finger, Magneto
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
2022-07-04 — Road Trip!
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
2022-07-02 — Not Quite
So yesterday I was super tired at 8 o'clock, starting to doze off, ready to crash. Then I chatted on the phone for a while, and then I have a second wind and didn't end up going to bed until like...3. 🙃 Whoops. Slept until about 11. Did... 4.25 cars today. One person (with a … Continue reading 2022-07-02 — Not Quite
2022-07-01 — Tired Early
Hiya, folks. It's only 7:48 p.m. right now, but my eyes are closing. I'm ready to crash. Haven't done anything today. Hot day. Nothing really promised to anyone, so I stayed home. Nice not to be out in the heat, but it's gonna get worse. Gonna be beastly hot for at least the next two … Continue reading 2022-07-01 — Tired Early
2022-06-30 — Goodbye June
Holar, folks! Gratefully, in addition to being a short work day, it was pretty easy. First car was a Honda with a radiator fan that wasn't turning on--turned out to be a bad fan. The replacement was pretty easy and went quickly. Second car was another Honda that needed an alternator. Easy peasy. Great conversation … Continue reading 2022-06-30 — Goodbye June
2022-06-29 — Turn the Ship
Not sure what to write today. Supposedly have a meeting with my Modern English peeps tomorrow about 3. For the record, I have this feeling like I shouldn't do it. (sigh) So tired of those feelings. I'm... probably gonna do it anyway because... 😕 I'm tired of those feelings, tired of getting dammed up when … Continue reading 2022-06-29 — Turn the Ship
