Hey, You were so excited about doing YouTube, Why did you stop?
First of all, the Youtube videos didn’t stop. I have 3 scripts half done and waiting for recording. I have another 6 substack posts half done also. I’m well aware that means None Are Published .
But I got shit to do……..August was a long month.
My manager took a leave of absence out of the blue, and some guy quit, and they haven’t replaced the other guy who quit so I had to just be the manager for a month with 2 people doing 6 peoples jobs.
My daughter had to get tubes in her ears . I’m told they’re like the plastic tubes on the end of shoelaces kinda. (aglets…for the gentrified audience members) So that killed a day. She’s fine.
The other one is starting kindergarten, so that’s a whole fuckin’ thing now.
I spent 12 seconds trying to read the lunch calendar time slot for the month, then just stopped caring ,because I can’t change it so it’s not worth worrying about.
I deep dove for 45 minutes into the Union County Education Bond issuance prospectus up for vote in November, and I have some thoughts!
I spent 90 minutes on two separate occasions reading the flyers sent home during orientation on everything from busing, nutrition, dual language enrollment, safety & security, the PTA .
What the fuck does she need a 24 pack of glue sticks for?
Visited the folks 800 miles away for 10 days without a computer
Suddenly The Fed is super hawkish again and now equites are a pain to manage and trade. I got plans for that money!
After a review, I am not eligible for student loan forgiveness primarily because I correctly refinanced them down to a low fixed rate years ago but to a private lender.
I have a whole fuckin rant about student loan forgiveness maybe coming .
My lawn sprinklers go on every 4 hours . I do not know why but wife wants it fixed yesterday.
So No, I didn’t do any fucking YouTube videos this month.
September should be better.
But at least I got these in
Everyone was up, dressed, ready on time and out the door …. every day
I read the 2 year old a book every night at bedtime
I listen to the day and thoughts of the 5 year old intently at bedtime
I walk the dog for 20 minutes for a 0.7 mile loop three times a day. (2.1 miles a day)
Regroup and compare notes with the wife on the day done, and day ahead
Vitamins every morning
No phone between 8 -10 pm
I had sex with the wife
Every bill was paid and every dollar accounted for
I didn’t die doing something stupid or irresponsible.
And those are sacrosanct
Oh, and the Power bill was like fuckin’ $350 ….again.
