Watched the Sabin doc as the rain comes down all morning. A lot of wisdom in this thing, much of it certainly applies to everyday living. Simultaneously the Mexican roofers are finishing up a new const roof, rain and all.

I’m in love with this sentence: “The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth they can accept about themselves without running away.”

This paragraph by Kobe Bryant hits hard: “Everyone wants to be a beast. Everyone wants to be the best. But very few people are willing to do what it actually takes. Because what it takes is boring. It is waking up at 4:00 AM. It is shooting the same shot a thousand times. It is watching the film when you are tired. People fall in love with the result, but they hate the process. You have to fall in love with the boredom. You have to fall in love with the repetition. If you can find joy in the mundane work that no one else sees, the lights will eventually shine on you.”

I have been working outdoors all summer, 95-100 degrees, just kept hydrated, and wore my hat and sun apparel. Just completed the barn/workshop, now working on the electrical service and such. Funny how 90 feels just fine. I'm going on my 4-mile walk, its 94, feels 85.

Every time you get a spare $350 buy TSLA. The future is here, to many are not picking up what Elon is laying down, decent cars/transportation world class tech. FSD will soon get its due. Older drivers faced with poor eyes, fading memory. FSD is the cure. My MIL is prime candidate

I missed the gym for 2 months - building on the farm was the cause. Back today, damn I lost a lot, quickly, and the regs' really looked good, Time to get to work.

Parenting can be hard, but the score only presents itself many years later. As I find out the problems many parents are having with their adult children, I am grateful for the adult men my boys became. An asshole/high standards parenting worked out. Wow I get smarter each year.

The Fla state - SMU game will not play tonight - trust me. If by now the system is not up, something large - blew. To bad really.

Given the recent College players going pro and back - seems I was also a professional athlete. Many years ago -, in my Rugby days, a major airline flew us to Austin TX - played UT and the local club team the next day, flew back - seems that was worth much more $$ than these dude

@elonmusk i was made for this. Master Electrician, Fiber splicer ( ribbon fiber, loose tube) dabbled in DWDM, I am what some call a wizard with a EXFO OTDR, also i develop software, one specifically for EV owners and avoiding a huge cost upfront for panel upgrades. So in a Data Center you need the power to run it and also the fiber to let it talk. im all in one and I am hilarious. Be on the lookout for my email. Thank you @vivilinsv for the heads up. Was doing some simple splice on connectors just yesterday.

All these posts: if you can't bench ### you are soft. I don't bench, do lots of fitness stuff, after 45 min cardio, with a 4x4 inside that, ab/core that most can't do, and several supersets tri/bi, heading out put 135 on the bar, 10 reps. 69 and fat, yeah, softy walks among us.

Today is here, make the best of it. One of my favorite quotes - the only easy day was yesterday. To follow up- no more complaining, All good or none. As D Goggins reminded me - just pick up that fucking log, pick up that fucking boat - it is time to go. STFU and do.
