Whoops! Sorry!!! I keep forgetting to write. I'd even missed a couple of work days. 😬 Of course, work days have been a good bit crazier lately than usual, and having long ago broken my once nearly perfect habit of writing every night before I went to bed, I just seem to keep... slipping. So, … Continue reading 2023-08-18 — Ford Day.

2023-08-17 — Revenge
Yes. Yes, I did. Today, I took my revenge. Granted, it needed to be done anyway, but after dealing with some pretty intense pain last night, and with the stings still hurting, though not badly, this morning, I rolled my little butt out of bed, well out of my recliner, that is, and I set … Continue reading 2023-08-17 — Revenge
2023-08-16 — Yellow Jackets
Sleeping was an absolute nightmare last night. I had perhaps my worst night since I've had this weird stomach/esophagus issue. I was in pain pretty much all night, and ended up waking up at whatever hour of the middle of the night and staying up for a couple hours doing research on the condition that … Continue reading 2023-08-16 — Yellow Jackets
2023-08-15 — Nothing?!?!?!
No solid foods after midnight. No liquids after midnight... With the exception of little sips of water. But not even that allowed after 6:00 a.m. with my procedure scheduled for 11:00. Gratefully, the Taco Bell and popsicles managed to bring up some symptoms again, so I woke up with at least some symptoms. I was … Continue reading 2023-08-15 — Nothing?!?!?!
2023-08-14 — Tensioner +11.25
Six 🚗, plus my own 😬, in this edition of Manic Monday! Ready? Begin! The first car on the list today was a 2007 Honda Odyssey in Pea Ridge that needed an alternator. I had the alternator ready, and I've done that job so many times that it's almost second nature at this point. The … Continue reading 2023-08-14 — Tensioner +11.25
2023-08-13 — They’re Just Babies
Saturday and Sunday are blurs. I'm disappointed that I'm not keeping better track of what's going on. It's nice to be able to go back and look at what was going on, things that happened in my life on particular days, and when I miss days, it almost feels like avoid, something lost. Anyway, I … Continue reading 2023-08-13 — They’re Just Babies
2023-08-11 — Another Freaky Friday
Hey! Even with some pretty good discounts, I managed to get more than 12 billable hours. 🥳 Another Freaky Friday in the books! Just car stuff to talk about today, like usual for manic Mondays and freaky Fridays. 🙃 First car was a 1997 Toyota T100 that needed a radiator and radiator fan replaced. Customer … Continue reading 2023-08-11 — Another Freaky Friday
2023-08-10 — I don’t remember
I can't really remember Tuesday or Wednesday right now. It's a blur. I know that I pretty much just been doing to-do list things all week. Working on trying to simplify and get done the things that have been hanging over my head. I've continued to work on sifting through all the piles of paperwork … Continue reading 2023-08-10 — I don’t remember
2023-08-07 — Move Over 12.9
Move over, 12.9, we have a new record holder! Even with some things going sideways, I blasted my old record and was able to book 13.9 billable hours. 🥳 It was quite the day! The day started off with morning exercise at 6:00 with Thomas. Right now we're just doing stretching, push-ups, planks, and walking. … Continue reading 2023-08-07 — Move Over 12.9
2023-08-06 — So Spatial
Exhausted. Day before yesterday, I went to bed early hoping to get good sleep, but I just ended up waking up really early after poor sleep anyway. Because that's how I roll. 🙃 I've also noticed lately, I'm not sure what the deal is, but I seem to be losing spatial awareness. I go to … Continue reading 2023-08-06 — So Spatial
