So... Technically it's the 15th right now, but since I haven't gone to bed, I'm still going to count this journal entry for the 14th 😁. As I'm writing this, it's currently 12:27 a.m., and I'm just heading home from my last job of the evening. 😬 It's been a very long day. I've made … Continue reading 2020-04-14 — Everyday is a good day… right?

2020-04-11 — Migraine
My head is pounding. Not sure I've got much in the tank to write anything meaningful tonight, so perhaps we can just call it a win that I'm even here writing, eh? Y'all good with that? I'll write a tad, just because... So... it's been another rough day. First guy canceled. The second job went … Continue reading 2020-04-11 — Migraine

Yeah... you've probably accurately guessed the meaning of the title if you've been keeping up with what I've been writing recently. Ugh. Rough day. I woke up sick... but at the time, not 100% sure it wasn't just allergies. Then you've got this whole Covid-19 thing, and what feels like a normal generally harmless (but … Continue reading 2020-04-10 — 4 1/2 Letter Average

2020-04-08 — Much Ado About Nothing
So... many years ago, I remember hearing a story (I honestly don't know if it's true or not) that went something like this: The CEO of a major company invited a consultant to help him better run his business. A meeting was scheduled, and the deal offered to the consultant was that one third of … Continue reading 2020-04-08 — Much Ado About Nothing

The University of Utah Years (’05-’08)
After graduating from BYU but before heading off to graduate school at the University of Utah, I went on a fun little three-week trip to Peru with one of my best friends whom I met at BYU. He and I had a blast, traipsing around Lima, Arequipa, Puno, Cuzco, Machu Picchu, etc. I have some … Continue reading The University of Utah Years (’05-’08)
2020-04-06 — Perspective
Hi, y'all. 😊 Today has been an interesting one. It's got me focusing a little bit more on what's important in life. It started out normally enough. I sent my contract worker out on a job, and I headed into town to do a job as well, as I'd double booked the schedule. I got … Continue reading 2020-04-06 — Perspective
