I've been a bit of a zombie today, so much sleep deprivation lately that I'm not really... present? I'm just sort of zoned out. I wasn't really capable of doing anything today, and the day is a bit of a haze. Decided not to fix cars today. It was rainy for part of the day, … Continue reading 2022-04-15 — Zombie

2022-04-14 — To Dreamland
Only got like 3 hours, ish, of sleep last night. Super tired. I'm falling asleep while I'm chewing. That's... interesting. Up early, running and gunning, so to speak, with stocks. I made one trade, and I should have made money on it, but somehow my stock trading software got goofed up, so even though I … Continue reading 2022-04-14 — To Dreamland
2022-04-13 — Rain Rain
(guess it didn't actually post when I published last night) Rough day, on a lot of fronts. But I'm a live. I'm tired. Brain isn't working. Life is hard. Got some tax stuff done today. That was good. The state wanted additional documentation for what I submitted a couple months ago. Funny thing is that … Continue reading 2022-04-13 — Rain Rain
2022-04-12 — ‘Nother Down
Hola, my wonderfuls. 😊 I put my 2015 Nissan Sentra up for sale late last night, and I had lots and lots of people express interest, even in the middle of the night, so that was promising. Went to bed and slept decently. I got up early to trade the market, and I made a … Continue reading 2022-04-12 — ‘Nother Down
2022-04-11 — Rebound
Hola, folks! Happy end of Monday. 🙂 Had a pretty good storm overnight, lots of rain, lots of thunder. Good stuff. Little Rock had a big tornado today, though, and Springdale is still trying to cleanup the damage from the tornado that went through there a week or two ago. Over here on Haven Hill, … Continue reading 2022-04-11 — Rebound
2022-04-10 — Goodbye Doz
The love affair lasted only a day, and then I realized the transmission and frame were cracked. 14 months later, $9,500 fewer, and a lot of stress and discouragement passed, it's now sold and no longer in it's usual place. The gentleman who bought it yesterday came to get it started today, and he was … Continue reading 2022-04-10 — Goodbye Doz
2022-04-09 — Ready for Sunday
I slept a bit more today, which was a welcome change. I'm gonna sleep a bit more again tonight. It's just after 10:30, and I'm about to crash. A little update on today. I tentatively have the bulldozer sold. The gentleman is coming tomorrow to try to get it started and loaded up. Slowly... slowly … Continue reading 2022-04-09 — Ready for Sunday
2022-04-08 — Eyes Closing On Me
Rewind back a couple years to where I would be falling asleep while writing my journal. I think that actually was April 2020, so two years pretty much exactly. That's me today... eyes closing on me. I decided to take today off. It was cold, and the wind was blowing hard, and I just wanted … Continue reading 2022-04-08 — Eyes Closing On Me
2022-04-07 — Not Much
Sorry you haven't been getting much out of me lately. I've been getting to bed too late, getting up too early, and really stressing myself out with the stock stuff. Having been unable to hold to my own rules, which has cost me a decent chunk of greenbacks, I'm taking a step back and reevaluating … Continue reading 2022-04-07 — Not Much
2022-04-06 — And I Thought it Rained *Yesterday*
So... I've noticed something. I think pretty much every time I've lost money trading so far it's been because I haven't followed my own rules for trading. Because I'm trading cash and not margin, I have the stress of wanting to make my investment make the most money it can, because the money is going … Continue reading 2022-04-06 — And I Thought it Rained *Yesterday*
