(written on April 20th) Another full day today, gratefully. Six cars, just shy of 10 billable hours. The first three jobs of the day were all in Bella Vista, the first being a 2013 Chevy Camaro in absolutely gorgeous condition that he wanted front brake pads and rotors replaced on. As is off in the … Continue reading 2024-04-05 (Friday) — Just Work

(written on the 22nd) Thanks to the help of my wonderful mother, we were able to go to Springdale and bring back my big doggy van that I I bought and finally got fixed yesterday. 🥳 Other than being a little squirrely on the highway, not sure if it's because of low tire pressure or … Continue reading 2024-04-04 (Thursday) — Doggy Van Home!

Finally got a busy day! 7 cars, 10 billable hours. 🥳 First one of the day was a 2005 Toyota tundra in Bella Vista that wouldn't start. Pretty routine. Was a bad starter, and those aren't too difficult with those old tundras with that particular engine, And I had already come prepared with a starter, … Continue reading 2024-04-03 (Wednesday) — A Full Day!!!

(written on April 21st) I have zero memory of the 2nd. It was a Tuesday, so I wasn't fixing cars. So that pretty much makes it a neat certainty that I was working on Hill projects and my own projects. If I were better at writing my journal lately, I would remember. 🙃 Lift the … Continue reading 2024-04-02 (Tuesday) — 🤷

Wow, three slower work days in a row. That's a total head scratcher this time of year. 🤷 Four cars. Five and a half billable hours. First job was just north of where I live and was a 2009 Toyota Corolla that was having a misfire issue. I found that it was way too full … Continue reading 2024-04-01 (Monday) — 3rd In A Row

(written on April 19th) We're going to call today "shed day." I found a little church in Bentonville that was selling a tool shed for a really really cheap price, And I wanted to surprise my mom with it because she's been wanting a toolshed for a long time. I figured it might take me … Continue reading 2024-03-31 (Sunday) — Shed Day

(written on April 19th) The only thing that I remember about today was that I spent a good little while helping Jim and get all the weeds out of his grow boxes. Other than that, I've got nothing for the day. 😅 It was a very full day, I think completely on the hill, but … Continue reading 2024-03-30 (Saturday) — Jim’s Grow Boxes

(written on April 15th) Oddly, it was another slow day. Two in a row. The first car of the day Was it 2019 Toyota Highlander in Springdale that had a flat tire. They had asked me to change the tire and put their spare on, but I was able to find the screw hole and … Continue reading 2024-03-29 — Another Slow Day

(written on April 12th) Just four cars today--a bit surprising given the time of year. I would expect to be slammed. 🤷 First car was a 2011 Kia Rio that the owner wanted me to install an alternator that they had already purchased. I think it was someone who takes care of an older person … Continue reading 2024-03-27 — Slower Day

(written on the 27th) There isn't really much of anything to write for Friday through Monday. I've been sick. More emotionally and mentally and spiritually than bodily, but also bodily. I spent most of my time, nearly all of it, in my room for all of those days. I wasn't useful. I wasn't productive. I … Continue reading 2024-03-26 — Z3 Repairs
