Tuesday - night

I've been consumed with thought and things going on lately, hence not posting.  It's not that I don't want to post, I just find that time flies by to the point it's time to go to bed.  So, it's almost time to go to bed, but here are a few things that have occurred in the last week.

Trey.  You know from my previous postings that he has lied to me about selling firewood. He told me one of the guests he bought a huge pile of it from an outside source and then I later learned he was cutting up felled trees on my property and selling it to him. That's both a lie and theft.  

I don't think I've posted since Trey "moved" to Fort Worth, some 175 miles away. Or maybe I did? I don't have time to go looking through previous posts.  He decided to take a part time job over there, where his girlfriend lives and come back on the weekends.  He also decided to tell me nothing about this.  I found out through 3 different people as I asked an overnight guest who told me someone had told him he was in Ft Worth and it eventually got to: He's staying there Monday -Friday and coming back here on weekends. 

Yea - no thank you.  The man did this without bothering to say a single word to me about it.  I'm skipping over a lot of stuff here, I don't have a lot of time. I texted him after I found that out and told him it's done, I am through with this, this relationship is over. You can either pay $450 per month for that lot or you can leave. No, this happened after that. That's right, I found out he was going to spend 5 days per week over there and that's when I texted him telling him this is over with, I'm through. 

I had originally given him 2 weeks to get out.  He came back last weekend.  I didn't bother to talk to him, he had his 2 week notice, get your stuff and get off my property. But then, I get a phone call.  Well he's telling everyone how you screwed him over and what you (me) are doing is wrong. Etc.  I became infuriated at that point. He had already crossed the line with me, now he is in MY park taking s*** about me? NO.  I got in my vehicle and drove over there and got right in his face. 

His mother was standing there- she's a sweet lady and nothing like her son or if she is she certainly doesn't let it out. I informed him I know he's talking trash about me, I am trespassing you from the property effective immediately. He kept mouthing off and I finally lost it.  After all of this time, putting up with his used-car-salesman type of lies approach to life, it was too much. I yelled at him so loud I heard my voice echoing off of trailers.  SHUT YOUR MOUTH< SHUT UP!  I realized immediately that I had lost control of my emotions.

But I couldn't contain myself and told him to get off the property right now.  The guy is so mouthy.  Are you going to help my mother finish up here? NO.  He got into his car, but I thought about it. I don't want to take this out on her, she really is a nice person. I told him to keep his mouth shut, he can help his mom.  I got in the Tundra and went off by the shed. No need to sit there, I'll just wait this one out.  It was about an hour and they had that trailer loaded and pulled it out of there. 

This is the end of workampers and park hosts for now for me. I've not had any good results with these people, they are all moochers and they want something for nothing.  Trey was giving me maybe 5 hours a month of work for lot rent including electricity.  He's gone and I don't know what kind of damage he has done in the park, I don't care either. If people don't want to stay, they are welcome to leave.  I have been checking my business google review account, so far nothing from him.  In his mind, he has been wronged by me.  Again, yea - no.

Monday, I'm coming back from Lufkin.  A tire blows up in Mt. Enterprise.  There was a truck parking area right there, pulled into it.  Called the company. Lots of communication later, they had a tire truck coming from Longview but they can't come right now, it will be 2 hours (at least).  I had already told them about a tire shop across the street from where I was at.  I heard a lot of nothingness on the phone.  We can't really do that, the company will ask questions and they don't like it.  I don't give a damn what this half rate company likes. I'm not sitting here 2 hours - which would probably be more like 3 - waiting for a damned tire truck to show up when I can hobble the truck literally straight across the street to a tire shop. 

I was ready to quit.  I don't care that much about this company.  I've been through earthly hell with them from the get-go.  I was asked "what do you want to do?" I DO NOT WANT TO SIT HERE FOR HOURS WAITING ON A TIRE TRUCK WHEN THERE'S A TIRE SHOP ACROSS THE STREET. 

I get a call back a few minutes later: we called over there, they have the right size, get yourself over there.  Note that I did not threated to quit, but it certainly was running through my mind quite vividly.  Tires replaced immediately, no waiting, I was out of there in 25 minutes.  

I just found out tonight the entire family is going to Colorado this summer to see her folks.  For a month.  Oh she didn't tell you about this already? No.  I got the details.  They are free to do whatever they want but why not tell me about it?  Sometimes I feel like a part of this family, sometimes I don't. This is a time when I don't.  This isn't until summer, but still. I'll be here alone. I don't mind that, at all actually.  I like being around people but it's certainly nice to have some alone time as well. 

The plane that ended up upside down. And the vivid videos of it.  It is quite amazing that no one died, at least not so far. I heard 3 people were in serious condition and one older gentleman is or was in very serious condition. I have watched a lot of air crash video and I don't recall any of them showing a commercial jetliner ending up upside down. Astonishing the video, especially the man crawling out of the thing directly after it happened and someone telling him not to video.  It's amazing footage and he wasn't holding anything up, I am glad he got that content. Another video was someone taking footage of it landing, they had no idea what was going to happen after they started filming it.

The DOGE train roars on.  Democrats can't help themselves but to launch lawfare, they have been calling it in the last few years, against Musk, Trump and the federal government.  They hit a nerve and it is a big one.  200 year old people getting monthly payments. Trillions   spent in DOD, none of that money had any identifiers of who it went to or for what purpose.  I am not going to go into all of it, but we are seeing the waste and fraud that has been festering for many decades now.   

I ordered a gaming computer a few days ago and it arrived today. I have been too busy to even pull it out of the box.  I need to find out how to transfer the data from the old computer to the new, presumably a cable hookup will do it.  Google is your/my friend.  

100 day pushup challenge is still in effect. I have 20 more to do today and then I'm going to bed directly after. 

And yes, its time to go to bed . Work early am, trucking job that is, deliver on Thursday and then 2 days off.  Sunday work, but I haven't had 2 days off in a while, I'll take it.
