We are doing ok, life is throwing some challenges at the moment but Nothing serious/major. We have our first real vacation together in 9 years coming up first week of October, really looking forward to that. Bought first class plane tickets and everything. How are you healing? COVId is now ravaging through my work, fucking things up pretty good. |

COVId is now ravaging through my work, fucking things up pretty good. I am now sleeping only 14 hours a day.  No seriously, I can get up after 12 hours, and do some work. But tomorrow I will need 16. Which averages out I guess.  So it's a roller coaster. I have great days when I feel almost normal, then days when I am like, "wtf, over?" So...I dunno. I think I'm getting better. Sort of?  I'm trying to not stress about it, cuz stressing doesn't help. |

You are getting there, I know it’s super frustrating though. |

It took me a while to get where I could even go upstairs to my kids room. One day soon you will be like wow did I just have a simi-normal day? That will be a good feeling but it does take time. Keep the head up. And keep hanging in there. |

I will defintely post pics. We are flying in to Boston and before we drive up we are going to check out some colonial history stuff, and then hitting New Hampshire just for some cooler weather, fall colors and actual water to see. Plan on doing a lot of hiking and stuff like that. It’s basically the antithesis of AZ and sometimes I need that. It’s defintely worth a trip if you’ve never been, I love it there. |

Have you ever looked into your family that came before the immigration to the colonies? I’ve had some luck tracing my ancestry back to some ancestors that came over around 1760, but after that I started having trouble tracing folks in England and Scotland, wasn’t really able to figure out even who the parents were of the people that took the boat ride. |

I cut my way into an attic that had no ventilation yesterday. It was easily 150 in there, probably worse. I grabbed a wood truss with a bare hand and it was too hot to touch. Worked about 20 minutes up there and almost ended up in the hospital. I’m kind of fortunate though. We moved to the burbs north of Phoenix and it’s more manageable, especially during monsoon season. More clouds and wind. We still hit 115 here but it’s usually a few degrees cooler. I at least get a little relief when I come home.

You need a professional grave chaser. I have a friend who is one. She is scary. And her criteria for "is this the real deal or not" is also scary. If she says you are a descendent of John Adams, you have proof. |

Yeah, I hit a disgraced/bastard noble line in the 1600s, so I can document back to William the Bastard and all that. Probably back to Charlemagne. |

Had the weirdest thing happen yesterday. I Was running a mini jack hammer and leaning into it really hard. I had my the side of my abdomen on the top of it as I leaned into it, no problems or pain or anything, I’ve done it a million times. All of the sudden it just felt like my rib caved into the back of my abdomen. Put me on the ground. Rib broken pretty good, they said I was lucky I didn’t lacerate my liver. Weirdest damn thing, I went from being fine to feeling like I got shot again, my body position hadn’t changed, there no was no pain or discomfort prior to it happening etc.
