How the crap does general motors stay in business? Good freaking crap. Their trucks have had me at my wits end today. Take the next left on. The first one was going back to that 2019 Silverado that had the completely busted oil cooler hose. Based on the information that I got from general motors, … Continue reading 2023-12-06 — American Junk

I can't even remember what happened yesterday. Not even a little bit. Let's see... Pretty sure I slept in again. I tried to go get wood chips for down by the deck, but their bulldozer had broken down, and they'd sent their big loader out to go rescue it, so they didn't have anything to … Continue reading 2023-12-05 — Brighter Days

It was a tough day in some respects--more car issues that leave me concerned I caused damage. 😕 I don't know where my brain is. It's really discouraging right now. I've been making so many mistakes lately. I probably take more responsibility than is mine to reasonably take, but it's not black and white... at … Continue reading 2023-12-04 — Just One Thing

"I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being." ~ Hafez Periodically, I go back to one of my friend's Facebook pages and read that quote. It's written as the permanent intro to the profile... ... So much on my mind today. So many … Continue reading 2023-12-03 — I Wish I Could Show You

Rough day on the car front. 😅 First car was simple enough, a newer Tahoe or Suburban or whatever it was with an issue with the cooling system. The gentleman tried to fix it himself and accidentally broke the connector for the engine engine coolant temperature sensor. 😬 I tried to teach him what to … Continue reading 2023-12-02 — Head Ache

I've tried to be good. Long sleeve shirts, long pants... trying not to touch my face... To some degree, I've succeeded. But I've also failed miserably. Why do I say that? Well... little me is covered in poison ivy patches... even places that were covered. 😶 Ummm... 😶😶😶 Gratefully, I've managed to keep it out … Continue reading 2023-12-01 — Happy December 😊

Whoa, boy! Mighty bump in the road yesterday (I'm writing this the morning of the 1st of December). I woke up to rain, which I love, but I wasn't expecting earlier this week. Forecast had it coming Friday, not Thursday, which is why I pushed the work back earlier this week all the way to … Continue reading 2023-11-30 — Bump in the Road

I woke up this morning feeling like I slept better than I have in a long time. Part of that might be because I used a portable heater in my room because when I wake up in the morning my room has been like 56°, which feels pretty cold when you're crawling out from underneath … Continue reading 2023-11-29 — Busting the Butt

I worked today as well, as it just seems to work out better this week to work Tuesday instead of Wednesday. That puts a pretty big gap until my next work day which is going to be Saturday because it's supposed to rain on Friday. But I guess we'll see what happens. Today wasn't a … Continue reading 2023-11-28 — Tuesday Work Day

After having a wonderful nearly 3-hour conversation with my brother last night, mostly about gospel stuff, I was able to get to bed relatively on time (I think?) in preparation for today's long work day. And long it was. I got up and did my normal routine for the morning, and then it was on … Continue reading 2023-11-27 — A Monday
