We'll start with some gratitude. It's been a rough day. I'm grateful that my poison ivy immersion this last Sunday apparently wasn't the immersion that I thought. Yes, I have some new patches of rash on my arms, but that's really it. Pretty amazing, given that I was basically hugging vines and burning poison ivy … Continue reading 2023-04-13 — Reflections

2023-04-12 — Just… Can We Get Some Honest Professionals?
Well, ummm... Lots of stuff on my mind, so recalling the days events is a little difficult right now. I'll get to that in tomorrow's post, though. Let's see... First job was a Chevy truck that the brake went all the way to the floor on. Supposedly. But when I got there, the battery was … Continue reading 2023-04-12 — Just… Can We Get Some Honest Professionals?
2023-04-11 — Sleep Writing
Gosh, folks... I'm ridiculously exhausted. 🙃 First, though, shout out to my high school girlfriend. It was her birthday today. 🥳 Happy birthday, my old friend! 😊🥳😊🥳😊 She's good people. ... Did I mention that I'm exhausted? 🙃 It's almost 1:00 in the morning, And I think I got home about midnight from my last … Continue reading 2023-04-11 — Sleep Writing
2023-04-10 — Monday’s Monday… Ugh.
I'm pretty tired. More than just pretty tired. I think I finally got to sleep somewhere around 2:00 after giving up on trying to get my taxes done. I was just too tired, and my brain just wasn't working properly, and my eyes were closing. I guess either it's not like the old days where … Continue reading 2023-04-10 — Monday’s Monday… Ugh.
2023-04-09 — First Firefly 😊
Well, today was supposed to be tax day with some vine cutting and tree felling as brakes in between tax sessions, but it turned out to be half of a morning of tax work, and all the rest of the day out in the woods trying to clear out the vines in the brush in … Continue reading 2023-04-09 — First Firefly 😊
2023-04-08 — A.I.
I called it early-ish again today. 😊 Actually, I didn't even start working on cars until noonish, I think. I spent the morning working on taxes, as I need to have everything to my accountant by Monday. Gratefully, I was much better during 2022 at keeping track of everything and staying on top of things. … Continue reading 2023-04-08 — A.I.
2023-04-07 — Proud of Me?
So, shout out to my sister and a thank you! I should not have assumed that there weren't good reasons for people to be out on smoke breaks. Some states around the country actually have laws that mandate a certain break every certain number of hours. Arkansas doesn't happen to be one of them, but … Continue reading 2023-04-07 — Proud of Me?
2023-04-06 — Lighten Up 😜
Fair warning, potentially offensive content coming... (especially in this day and age when people choose to be angry and take offense at seemingly just about everything.) So... without further ado! I know this subject is as old as, well, the cigarette, but can I get free paid breaks from work, too? 🙃 I've never really … Continue reading 2023-04-06 — Lighten Up 😜
2023-04-05 — Unexpectedly Full
Holar, my lovelies. 😊 Happy Wednesday! Another day up earlier than expected. Apparently, it be my knew normal. 🤷 The day was unexpectedly busy today. For some reason, I thought I had very little on the schedule, but I guess it was more than I thought. I went to eight cars, got paid for seven. … Continue reading 2023-04-05 — Unexpectedly Full
2023-04-04 — Exercise!
Haven't had a day like today in a very long time. So I guess I'll try and stay on the positive side of things and say that "how wonderful it has been to not have a day this bad in so long." 😅 In fact, I'll try and look on the bright side of every … Continue reading 2023-04-04 — Exercise!
