Brie was very helpful from her office at home in Florida. We spent over 30 minutes on the phone and the below document turned out to not be as useful as I had hoped.

It is amongst my most prized possessions, but turns out enlisting while I was 17 throws a wrench into things. Dad did try to talk me out of it…
She submitted my claim and was hopeful, but the machine needs to grind a bit…
This afternoon I was able to get the trailer hitch receiver MOSTLY connected to the Venza. Two nuts won’t loosen, sway bar fasteners. Tetra-ethyl-bad-shit is soaking into the corrosion, perhaps tomorrow they will free up. I had to zip to town on btwxd for some materials, chilly but a decent ride, more fun than a car!
This morning I got an email inviting me to a “ladies choice” ADV rally in PA in late April! More on that later, it’s an option, but the theme of uncertainly is running rampant.
I’ve thrown my hat into the ring for a delivery driver for Skillins, the garden center I went to as a youth on Falmouth Foreside, and delivered fuel to recently while working for Crowley. They have spots in Brunswick (over by the river, near West Bath) and Cumberland as well.
Then, of course, my landlord mentioned that the Harpbin might not be available next winter, family reasons. WTF, it was a nice fall, now there is just a whole lotta stuff up in the air!
Ah life, ain’t you like that. I’m just that more overwhelmed now, and going to lay on the cold floor and process some of this uncertainty.. Hopefully the stretching will pull me into the moment, however fleeting, it will be welcome. These things take time to sort out, illustrating my lack of patience!
