Happy 4th

Shawshank, July 4, 2020July 11, 2020

Happy 4th of July from the Great White North. I was figuring that I’d be doing yard work with my dad today. I slept in, and got up about a half hour later than I usually do. There were storms again last night, with something called “sheet lightning”. I woke up at one point, and…

It’s 10pm here, and I’m watching ghost adventures. I would’ve just made a blog post, but I’ll wait till Saturday so you can walk me through logging in. I have a little anxiety because my mom wants to take me around [redact]estevan[/redact] tomorrow to get applications for work. I’m scared to say anything because I…
