2025-04-12 (Saturday) — Some in Pain, Some With Joy

(written on the 18th from notes taken previously) Spent most of the morning to early afternoon helping my brother help his neighbor with a plumbing project. Perhaps I brought my luck with me, because the project went sideways multiple times. There was all kinds of trouble brazing copper pipes together, until Richard decided to use … Continue reading 2025-04-12 (Saturday) — Some in Pain, Some With Joy

2025-04-11 (Friday) — Day With a Friend

Big fat happy birthday to my high school girlfriend.  🙃 Woke up late this morning. Haven't been getting rest that feels like rest.

2025-04-04 (Friday) — Hello, Utah! I’m Early!

(written on the 6th from notes taken on the 4th) I think it was somewhere between 4:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m. when I finally crashed for the night, somewhere not too far east of Shamrock, Texas. I thought about stopping at the gas station that I got gas at, as I saw another van there, … Continue reading 2025-04-04 (Friday) — Hello, Utah! I’m Early!
