It does feel good 😀

It does feel so good to have that title in hand for Old Smokey with name on it and the words “No Leins Recorded” , and with the strong markets this year note that unrealized Capital Gains since January basically paid for the SuperDuty.

Another cold but sunny morning, ☀️ at least after being so spoiled last week but it should warm up fairly quickly and turn out nicer later on but the best is yet to come, as they say. Friday is bedliner day. I want to wash the truck on Thursday so it’s good and clean before the big spray, not sure if it will fit in the car wash down the street or I’ll have to go Glenmont. Certainly once the MX truck cap is on the big SuperDuty, I’ll have to use the Glenmont Car Wash and hand wash the truck. I do want to get that under body coated before next winter though with lamolin.

Riding to work again today. 🚴 I wish it was a little warmed but no complaints about the sun an lack of breeze. 🥕 Carrots again for pancakes, I shredded one up and with some defrosted strawberries 🍓 in the mix, made for a pretty good and filling breakfast. 🛏️ Kind of slept in late, I don’t know, I found it hard to get asleep last night. Not sure why, I should be content, the markets recovered 💵 putting my net worth solidly in seven digits again, and I got the title with No Leins Recorded to SuperDuty, 🏡 but maybe I was trolled again 🧌 by one of those social media posts that claimed the only way to be financially secure and live a good life is to buy one of those plastic houses and a 25-year old Honda Civic and drive to work every day. 🤷‍♂️ Fuck it, I want that log cabin in woods, or at least something made out of woods, and I’ll take a burn barrel 🛢️ over any weekly trash service. Make my own damn electricity. 🔌 That’s how I feel about it. And with the SuperDuty spend much of my days in wilderness. Without children or hogs to feed. 🐽

Still I am freaked out a bit about gas prices ⛽ and everything else going out in woods, but don’t worry BETTER HELP IS HERE TO HELP WITH YOUR FINANCIAL STRESS! the midnight advertisements on the podcast I put on to get asleep warned me. But you bought a SuperDuty, which while quite possibility the most reliable and simple modern gas engine out there there 🧑‍🔧, has no fuel economy features outside of a keyed 🔑 ignition and a supposedly somewhat marginal variable oil pressure pump. I don’t know, it’s not like I am dependent on SuperDuty to get me everywhere, and if gas gets too expensive, I’ll just plan longer trips closer to home. Still I think this is the year to go and see Michigan and possibly some of Wisconsin. 🛻
