I'm getting a bit antsy. Part of me, anyway. Part of me wants to hide away in my room and never come out. Part of me is trying to break out of whatever this mental prison is, so I can... change the world. I'm a broken record. I've said this... so many times. I'm gonna … Continue reading 2022-05-22 — Poison Delay

2022-05-21 — Cooling Off
So nice to have a cooler day today. It was... low 60s today, I think? Rain. Lightning. Torrential downpour. Even lost power for an hour or so. Good stuff. Took the day off yet again. No noticeable improvement with my injuries, but the medical place wasn't open today to ask them about the apparent goofs … Continue reading 2022-05-21 — Cooling Off
2022-05-20 — One Car
Well, my trip back to work was a grand total of one car. Battery change at a hotel in Springdale for a 2018 GMC Acadia. Relatively straightforward, and she tipped me. That was nice. Then I went to the urgent care to get my body checked out. Think it was a waste. They ordered x-rays, … Continue reading 2022-05-20 — One Car
2022-05-19 — Back to Work
I really took the day off today. I pretty much didn't leave my room. Maybe that'll help the healing? Guess we'll find out: Gonna go fix cars tomorrow. 🤞 Why am I so afraid to go do my best to change the world--to actually do it? Is it a fear of failure? Is it a … Continue reading 2022-05-19 — Back to Work
2022-05-18 — Not Quite
So, I gave a little attempt at auto mechanic work today, but it was for one of my own vehicles (the Dodge truck). It went... okay. A decent bit of pain, both in my wrist and in my chest. 😕 Nice having another day off work, though. Wondering if I need to go to the … Continue reading 2022-05-18 — Not Quite
2022-05-17 — Another Day Off
Took another day off. Not sure really what to do. Coughing or sneezing hurts really badly. Exerting myself hurts a good bit as well. Went to look at a piece of property a couple miles away but found out it was going under contract today, so... oh well. 44 acres with Sugar Creek running through … Continue reading 2022-05-17 — Another Day Off
2022-05-16 — Maybe a Little Better?
Hiya, folks. 🙂 Chose not to work again today. Body isn't happy still. As of this evening, I feel a little better. Not as much pain laughing (I'm actually watching some Dave Chappelle comedy at the moment while writing this), so there are a few laughs to test out how the old bod' is doin'. … Continue reading 2022-05-16 — Maybe a Little Better?
2022-05-15 — Weird Injuries
I'm way off kilter... sleepwise. It's only 5:48, and I'm nodding off. Was up until 6... then I slept until I couldn't sleep, but that was only like... 11? Yeah, way off kilter. Awesome thunderstorm today. Got my room cleaned up a bit. Gonna clean up a bit more. Chest still messed up. Guess I'm … Continue reading 2022-05-15 — Weird Injuries
2022-05-14 — Just Breathe
Didn't work today. Injured some muscle or something in my chest. Hurt to breathe. Exerting myself makes it worse, so... I took the day off. Gonna take the day off tomorrow as well. Took a nap. Hard to sleep because it would hurt to move, and I move in my "sleep" a lot. Not much … Continue reading 2022-05-14 — Just Breathe
2022-05-13 — Reception Vacation
Hiyah, folks! Woke up this morning to... nothing. No calls. No messages. 🤔 No reception on the phone. Over the course of the morning, I had one call come in that dropped before I could talk to them. I ended up leaving the property to get reception, where I called T-Mobile, and they switched us … Continue reading 2022-05-13 — Reception Vacation
