Another 3:30am start. Again. This time, it wasn’t anxiety or a loud noise—just my brain deciding, “Nope, we’re awake now.” On the bright side, I did finally get the WordPress app working again. That little tech win actually lifted my spirits. I moved over to the travel trailer to start packing and writing my checklist. […]
When Everything Feels Off
Another rough night. Same 3am wake-up, even though I took a Xanax at 10pm thinking it might help me finally get a full night’s sleep. Nope. That disappointing mix of tired and wired is really getting old. I think the letdown from yet another person flaking on helping with the well hit harder than I […]
Potatoes Gone Wild & Disney Before Dawn
Another 3:30am wake-up. Ugh. This time, I tried something different – stayed in bed and threw on a couple of old Disney movies (Jungle Book and Dumbo). It helped a little, but I still don’t know when I drifted off. Maybe around 6? I was back up by 8. A solid 5–6 hours of sleep […]
Stormy Skies, Dull Dates & Dance Parties
Happy Star Wars Day! (Yes, I said it – May the 4th be with you.) Woke up at 3am, just before the storm rolled in. I pottered around for a couple of hours, caught in that weird space where you don’t know if it’s better to be productive or just lie there and try to […]
Sunday Sermon – 04.05.2025
Welcome to this week’s Sunday Sermon — a little collection of all the random, funny, thought-provoking things I stumbled across. Grab a coffee and enjoy the rabbit holes!
Low Battery Mode: Burnout, Bullet Journals & a Bit of Mulch
Today started with a familiar rumble, the big generator ran for around 9 hours on 5 gallons of gas and shut off just before 7:30am, which conveniently became my wake-up call. My neck? Way better. Barely a twinge this morning and I think I can skip the painkillers today. Small victories, right? But overall… I’m […]
Wired and Tired
Woke up with my alarm (finally!). Took a Xanax last night to help ease the tension in my neck. It’s working, slowly but surely. Still needed some painkillers this morning, but I’ll take progress over perfection any day. Started the morning with my usual podcast routine: BBC and Freakonomics. It’s nice to have familiar voices […]
260lbs of Nope!
Woke up around 6:30am. Neck’s doing a bit better — not quite pain-free, but the painkillers are still doing their job. Progress, right? Started the morning with my usual background noise: NPR, Reuters, and BBC headline podcasts. It’s part habit, part grounding. Keeps me feeling connected, even out here. I finally pulled together the shopping […]
Blades, Pumps, and Progress!
Who needs a gym? Built a push mower, scrubbed my bathroom, and got hyped on hardstyle. Oh, and my new water pump is finally here — let there be water!
Burnt Out, But Still Moving
Today wasn’t great, but I showed up for therapy and made space to rest. That counts.
