Sorry you haven't been getting much out of me lately. I've been getting to bed too late, getting up too early, and really stressing myself out with the stock stuff. Having been unable to hold to my own rules, which has cost me a decent chunk of greenbacks, I'm taking a step back and reevaluating … Continue reading 2022-04-07 — Not Much

So... I've noticed something. I think pretty much every time I've lost money trading so far it's been because I haven't followed my own rules for trading. Because I'm trading cash and not margin, I have the stress of wanting to make my investment make the most money it can, because the money is going … Continue reading 2022-04-06 — And I Thought it Rained *Yesterday*

Today has been really really rough from just about the beginning of the day through now (11:46 p.m). I'm really struggling. I made a couple of dumb decisions, one early in the day, one in the later afternoon, and I'm really paying for it in stress, discouragement, etc. Not to mention the last car of … Continue reading 2022-04-05 — When It Rains

Not doing so well. Tired. Rough day. Good night, all. Lift the World ~ stephen

Hey, folks. 🙂 Happy end of Sunday and start of another week. Been a busy day over here. I had a nice hot shower. I gave myself a haircut, cutting off all the long hair I'd let grow out. It's back to being really short--#2 on the sides and an inch on top--something like that, … Continue reading 2022-04-03 — A Little bit of Everything

Hi, folks. 🙂 I'm pretty lonely today. Don't remember if I already mentioned that, as per the norm, the woman I messaged on Match.com didn't reply. They never do. 😕 Still... I'm not giving up. I'm gonna keep trying. But it's pretty clear to me that online doesn't work for me. Clearly, I'm not attractive … Continue reading 2022-04-02 — Did I Mention I Was Tired?

Have I mentioned recently that I'm tired? Oh, man... I'm exhausted. Made about $850 today with stocks. Fun story behind it, but I'm so tired. Three cars as well. Slow day there, by choice. I was dragging a bit. I can't remember the cars. ...oh yeah... Leaky thermostat housing in an 80s Crown Victoria. He'd … Continue reading 2022-04-01 — Happy April Fool’s

Hola, folks! Happy... end of Thursday/welcome to Friday. 😊 Been a pretty nutty day today, again. Seems like all the days lately have been crazy, especially since I started day trading. It's still high stress as I try to hone my strategy and learn everything. Today was decent day. I didn't make any issues that … Continue reading 2022-03-31 — Penny and My Thoughts

So, so tired. Got about an hour and a half of sleep last night. Stock stuff. Learning, and getting up early because I was still holding onto that one stock from yesterday, and I wanted to see how it did in premarket to see what I might be able to do with it. Gratefully, the … Continue reading 2022-03-30 — Dead Tired

Two years, baby. 🥳 Not really super important, but it's a habit (journaling) that's good for be anyway, I think. It's certainly been helpful at times in many different ways. Busy busy day today, not that busy days are anything new. I'm generally running around trying to accomplish more than I ought to squeeze in … Continue reading 2022-03-29 — Two Years 😊
