You know how I was mentioning that ticks are smarter than I thought? That they will pay attention to wherever you've been and go there hoping that you will return? Little bugger was on my shoe in the morning. 😎 Sneaky. Every night I put my shoes on the top of my laundry bin (just … Continue reading 2024-07-02 — A Bit of Progress

Got up sometime around 8:00 something, I think, at least for the last time. I wake up a gazillion times during the night. That's just normal for me. Rarely am I ever actually deeply asleep. I started off the morning sorting through bins, trying to find all my clothes because, well, lots of them are … Continue reading 2024-07-01 (Monday) — In A Heap

Relatively decent night's sleep last night, gratefully. The main thing that keeps me sleeping a little lighter than perhaps I otherwise could is just concerns about ticks That might have hitched a ride last second and come in with me. 🙃 Living down in the field, that's quite possible, and I think it's happened at … Continue reading 2024-06-30 (Sunday) — Water Diversion Bump. Check.

It never cooled down last night. It was just hot and sticky all night. I think it was probably over 80°+ in the van all night. Thank heaven I have that little fan to blow on me, 🙏and thank heaven it holds a charge long enough to last all night. 🙏 Jim came driving down … Continue reading 2024-06-29 (Saturday) — Chafingly, Blisteringly, Hot

When I went to bed last night, even though I had diligently set up to charge my jump box to be ready to run My fan all night, apparently, once again, I forgot to switch it to the on position that allows it to actually charge. So when I went to lay down to go … Continue reading 2024-06-28 — Breaking Down

On the edge of breakdown. So tired of being alive. Don't have the courage to not be. On the bright side, I slept well again. Sleeping in the van has been great. Breakfast was cinnamon rolls and bananas. My diet is crap. My vegan has fallen apart. My no sugar is gone. It's all very … Continue reading 2024-06-27 (Thursday) — Still Moving

(written on the 28th) Gratefully, When the day dawned, I found that for the most part, everything had remained covered by the tarps during the storm. It wasn't a particularly major storm, but we did get some strong wind that rocked my van pretty good, knocked over the storage cupboards from the garage that I … Continue reading 2024-06-26 (Wednesday) — Saga Continues

(written on the 28th) My memory is spotty. Chatted for a good little while with Landon when he came to bring my gas can back. I went back to Jenna's/Steve's house, loaded up Mom's porch swing, her garden table and chairs, and the rest of the garden swing onto a trailer. I also loaded up … Continue reading 2024-06-25 (Tuesday) — More Moving

(written on the 25th and 26th) With the fan, it was a pretty normal night's sleep last night. I recharged my jump box before going to bed, and I slept pretty comfortably. 🙂 In fact, I think I slept maybe a little better than normal! 🥳 I like this little mattress that came with ET! … Continue reading 2024-06-24 — Sauna

(written the 24-25th) I've lost all sense of time. The days are just flying by, and it's hard to keep track of what I've been doing on each day. Let's see... It was nasty, humid, hot miserable night. I think the forecasted low was like 78° just before dawn. And Rover had sat in the … Continue reading 2024-06-23 — Moving Day x3
