They didn't have any angle iron; I bought drip edge flashing

It's thin. I just hope it is adequate. I am not removing the stir sticks, although when I realized that I needed to adapt I thought that I should buy 2.

I forgot, but I wanted aluminum angle as thick as the stir sticks, which would be 8-9 times as thick as this stuff.

I kept trying to write my notes for the second agency, which were late. I had a terrible time figuring out when I saw whom, but I saw the same 2 clients that I have had since December, one client in-town that started attacking me after 5 minutes and when I didn't let him he started trying to hurt himself.

The mom had indicated that was my fault because I don't have a Master's, but my brother's SLP said they only discussed emotional-behavioral issues for about a day.

I am inclined to think that a 6'2" and 230-pound man would have an advantage here over a 5'3"-5'4" woman who weighs 170-171 pounds (Healthline says that is the average and 95% of speech therapists are female).

However, he needs behavioral therapy orders of magnitude more than speech therapy, so I wouldn't agree to return until he had a behavior plan.

I don't have any idea what that means, just that when I have requested them the clients went away before they got them.

I saw my newest client once and then they went out of town.

That seems simple! How did I confuse that?!

Oh, there is a whole story.

I dropped off my brother at his obedience school and we ran errands in that shopping center before I ran to Home Depot.

I swear that all of that took 2 hours.

I came home in-between clients just so I could work on it, but I was still trying to figure out when I saw who.

I was going through my text messages and I reread the last message from the woman in Arizona City. I didn't respond to her for a few days and I apologized for taking so long.

I mentioned that I kept trying to take care of something extremely important and she responded that she was glad that I was making progress, but in the middle she said "You should have told me you weren't interested."

I never planned on ending contact. I was just trying to accomplish stuff for once.

I happened to see the crazy mom gave me another shopping list at 1937, but I saw it after 90 minutes.

I finished my notes and Mom told me to have some ice cream.

"No, Crazy Mom asked me to pick up stuff for them again," and then she yelled at me for prioritizing my brother over a lady taking advantage of my kindness.

Last week I saw a post stereotyping Veterans (and wannabes) as bearded guys with tons of stuff that says Army and lifted trucks.

I responded that I had a beard and drove an old Japanese sedan and for the 8 years I was in the Army they told us to not advertise that we were in the Army, it could make us a target.

Someone claimed that I was playing the victim card.

How can I play the victim card when nobody has done anything to me?

I just said that I don't draw attention to myself.

Perhaps today I ran into someone that would try to cause me grief. I mentioned serving in the Army and he replied that I made the world a worse place, but was probably too brainwashed to understand it.

Mom, is that you?

Maybe an ex.

Well, I need to wake up in less than 7 hours. I messaged the mom of my first client this morning and I haven't heard back.

I will reach out again before I leave and will print out little notes saying that I stopped by, since I haven't made business cards for this agency yet.

I still have most of the business cards that I made for the first agency over 4 years ago.

If they don't answer again I will message the mom that I have come by 3 times and they didn't answer.

Let me know when they want to start speech.

However, I won't leave early until they confirm within 24 hours or something.
