(written on May 30th from notes taken previously) Up early early today. I wish I knew what it was that keeps waking me up so early. Is it just that dawn starts before 5 a.m.? Is it just the light? I don't know. Gratefully, despite the lack of sleep, I had one of my best … Continue reading 2026-05-20 (Wednesday) — Dailies Progress

(written on May 30th from paltry notes taken previously 😅) You know, when you don't write the same day the events occur, nor do you even take notes on the day, when you're not traveling around or doing anything note that's out of the ordinary, it's really hard to remember what actually happened. 😅 I … Continue reading 2026-05-19 (Tuesday) — Just Can’t Remember

(written on the 30th from notes taken previously) I was up early this morning doing my morning dailies... still having trouble sleeping in, even if I want to. Saw Heather off to work and then began churning through my to-do list--going through old emails to clean them out, organizing and cleaning up my van a … Continue reading 2026-05-18 (Monday) — Sneaky Debits

(written on the 29th from notes taken previously) Well, it was decision time this morning. I woke up relatively early, as per usual lately, and called my mom not too long after getting up to chat with her about my thoughts. To go to Utah... or not to go. That was the question. 🙃 I … Continue reading 2026-05-17 (Sunday) — Just Say No to Korean Cars. 😅

(written on 29th from notes taken previously) Poor mama was pretty sick this morning. She had been better for a few days, but now she's right back in the thick of it. 😕 I set my laundry drying before heading out to Haven Hill this morning. I don't remember if I mentioned it before, but … Continue reading 2026-05-16 (Saturday) — The Great Toilet Seat Test

(written on May 27th and May 29th from notes taken previously) I was up early again this morning. I'm just... not getting the sleep I need. Not sure why. I'm waking up naturally. I'm not going to say that I'm super exhausted when I wake up, but I know I'm not rested. Anyway, it was … Continue reading 2026-05-15 (Friday) — A Few Goodbyes

(written on the 24th and 27th from notes) Today was a day of emotional swings as different events unfolded. 😅 I was up really early this morning, which was probably a good thing, since I had an early morning doctor's appointment in Bentonville. Gratefully, traffic was surprisingly nearly non-existent between the hill and Bentonville. Usually, … Continue reading 2026-05-14 (Thursday) — Hefty Swings

(Written on May 24th from notes) It's been too long to remember the day clearly, unfortunately, but I at least have a decent amount. 🙏¹ My first stop after leaving my mom's place was to go to the Walmart neighborhood market in Pea Ridge and then on to Haven Hill where I spent time working … Continue reading 2026-05-13 (Wednesday) — Happy Snake Day!

(written on May 22nd from notes taken previously) Busy, exhausting day on the Hill today, but the day started at my mom's house. After getting up, I listened to a Neal A. Maxwell talk, spent a bit of time working on my electronic file organization efforts, and then tried for a little bit to help … Continue reading 2026-05-12 (Tuesday) — A Little Elbow Grease

There isn't a whole lot to write about today. I didn't get enough sleep, but I'm not too terribly sleep deprived either. Just a little low. Spend some time chatting with the Big Guy. Also spent a fair bit of time this morning going through recovery files, still trying to clean up from that disaster … Continue reading 2026-05-11 (Monday) — Mega Mowing Monday
