I was roasty toasty last night. 😊 I think I was up until around 2:00 doing stuff on my phone before crashing, and I finally got my little butt out of bed and going sometime after 10:00, I think. But I was roasty toasty. 🥳 I'll see how it goes tonight, but I'm guessing it'll … Continue reading 2025-02-19 (Wednesday) — Winter Wonderland 🥰

There was a bit of snow on the ground when I woke up this morning. With my unplanned privacy wall in the way of crawling from the back to the front, I actually have to exit the van now, walk around the front, and hop in the driver's seat. Snow coming down. Wind driving it … Continue reading 2025-02-18 (Tuesday) — Bivouac

A very happy birthday to one of my Utah peeps. 🥳 Hope the day was a little slice of heaven on earth. 🤗 Stayed nice and toasty warm last night. Don't think it got below like 18°, so it wasn't bad anyway. The real tests come Tuesday night, Wednesday night, and Thursday night, with lows … Continue reading 2025-02-17 (Monday) — Sealed… I Hope. 🤞

Not really a very eventful day. I did finally put bags in Little John and a layer of wood chips in the bottom. Gratefully, ain't no smell as long as the lids on. Wrote my journal entry for yesterday. And then I spent pretty much the entire rest of the day down by the creek … Continue reading 2025-02-16 (Sunday) — Creek Sunday

(written on the 16th) Didn't work very much today either. 😅 I think I only start at 11:00 questions, and most of them didn't get finished because there were some black-hole questions. I still haven't figured out how to comfortably deal with black-hole questions. JustAnswer is terrible at clearly communicating expect expectations with their customers. … Continue reading 2025-02-15 (Saturday) — Cold Front

I slept in again today. Well, I woke up I think around 7:30 ish and then drove over to the main Walmart parking lot, crashed again, and I don't think I woke up again until somewhere around 10:15? Pretty sure it was 10 something. I was a bit burned out from JustAnswer work today. It's … Continue reading 2025-02-14 (Friday) — The Ends DON’T Justify the Means

(written on the 14th) I woke up to pick frost on the inside of all my windows. 14° overnight, hitting its lowest point just before dawn, I think. Gratefully, though my toes started out cold when I first went to bed, I woke up toasty warm curled up underneath my three layers of blankets. I … Continue reading 2025-02-13 (Thursday) — Froze My Shorts On

(written on the 13th) Well, the pulled muscle that I didn't think was very bad turned out to be super bad. 😬 Just moving around my bed and trying to find a comfortable position was painful. The delayed pain reaction to injury is an interesting phenomenon. I remember when I tore my labrum in my … Continue reading 2025-02-12 (Wednesday) — A Little Burned Out

My brain is spinning around tying knots in itself. I'm anxious. Concerned. Some recent events in my life have significantly increased the pressure that I feel to pin down what I believe in my heart of hearts to be true about this life and eternity. An effort that would perhaps bless me more than anyone … Continue reading 2025-02-11 (Tuesday) — My Reckoning

I woke up to the sound of a tractor going back and forth and back and forth near my van. So I poked my head out from underneath my blanket and saw Jim busily getting the tractor ready to load onto my trailer for a job that he needed to do. I popped into the … Continue reading 2025-02-10 (Monday) — Poo Burn Pile
