I didn't make any money today. Not any! And I couldn't be happier. 😁 It rained and rained, and I took pretty much the whole blasted day off, and shout out to my sister Heather, I even took a nap!!! --an almost 3-hour nap!!! I didn't even get up until after 8, I think! Then … Continue reading 2020-05-15 — The World for a Nap

Morning Meditations: Anger/Frustration (Thought Dump #1)
For years, I've been familiar with the phrase "All frustration comes from unmet expectations." I don't know if he coined it, but my exposure to it comes through John Lund, a marriage educator and author who lives in Utah. I think I'm going to meditate a bit on that phrase and my own anger/frustration issues … Continue reading Morning Meditations: Anger/Frustration (Thought Dump #1)
2020-05-14 — Staying Strong
Did you think I forgot?No, no I didn't forget: It's just that I just barely finished work, and I'm heading home. It's 1:30 a.m. 😬 Should I bother writing that I am tired? No, I won't write that I'm tired. What good would it do to tell you that I'm tired. It's a given that … Continue reading 2020-05-14 — Staying Strong
2020-05-13 — An All Over Day
Just a heads up... this is gonna be a "meh" entry tonight. It's 12:07 a.m., and I'm just now sitting down to start writing this post, and I'm super exhausted, so getting much of anything out of me right now... yeah. It's been a long day. Not necessarily a bad day (no, every day is a good … Continue reading 2020-05-13 — An All Over Day
2020-05-12 — Oops?
Buenas noches, amigos y amigas, familiares y extranjeros! Bienvenidos al resumen de mi día! 😁 Soooooo... oops? I accidentally bought another car from the auction today. 🙃 I know, I know... my friend Miguel had the same reaction: "Accidentally? You pressed the button, didn't you?" Yeah yeah...

2020-05-11 — Awesome Title
Happy Monday, peeps. 😊 Another late night and another early morning has me still rather sleep deprived, but I'm still kicking. I busted out some more servicise this morning. And guess what? I have you to thank for it. When the sun woke me up at 6 something after going to bed at 1 something, … Continue reading 2020-05-11 — Awesome Title
2020-05-10 — I May or May Not Have
Well peeps, Fog brain. That's what I have right now. Not that it's anything new, you see. It's actually a seemingly nearly perpetual reality for me nowadays. It just is. The inability to think abstract thoughts or pull memories out of wherever they're lodged within the gray matter beneath this thick skull of mine. Anyway, … Continue reading 2020-05-10 — I May or May Not Have
2020-05-09 — An Awful Fantastic Day
I'm gonna sleep so well tonight 😁. I think I started working about 7 this morning oh, and its 11:55 right now and I'm on my way home. I still have about 20 or 25 minutes before I get home (gotta love voice-to-text journaling). In some ways it's been an awful day. I spent probably … Continue reading 2020-05-09 — An Awful Fantastic Day
2020-05-08 — Exercise? Check. +1
I did it! I finally started exercising again. 😁 Day 1 is in the books. 😎 It wasn't much... just 10 minutes of cardio (running around the back parking area picking up sticks that get run over by the lawnmower and throwing them into the huge branch pile), but 10 minutes is 10 more than … Continue reading 2020-05-08 — Exercise? Check. +1
2020-05-07 — Make Me a Match
Buenas! Happy end of Thursday. 😊 I suppose you could say that I took it easy today. I still worked like 12-14 hours, but it was a less frantic pace, which was rather nice. I got two of the dud cell phones shipped back today. I got some labor claims typed up and submitted for … Continue reading 2020-05-07 — Make Me a Match
