FRI 03/13/26: Activity Log (AND NOTES...)

• cleaned bath and vacuumed, mopped housewide floors

• Organized waiting Quickbooks work

• JOEL trip to Bay City to stay with surfing friend through weekend; surfing and also necessary distance in light of TOMMY recent claims of possibly "breaking down the door" when I was unresponsive to his knocking at my office door for a few minutes. NOTE: the TOMMY/JOEL personal space topic is something that I suspect will become more acute as HTIRE business slows down and he is at the house more. In light of this, I've returned to my typical habit of rigorously keeping our sleeping schedules inverted which is a practice I've employed with great success over the past few years as a means of gauranteeing myself a definite, unmolested 5 to 8 hours every day to see to personal business without always having to expect banging on my door. I'll be writing a proper page/article about this topic and others that are becoming notable of late as he is spending more time here at the house. But simply returning to my legacy/regular habit of working from 9PM to 4am each day is immediatley the most effective at locking in the vital personal time I need (and he needs for other reasons). He has also been bringing up marijuana a lot lately. Any time there's an article or news piece on the subject, he's very quick to hollar out to me to come watch and then begin espousing the dangers and damage that smoking weed can cause. The call outs to me are very targeted and of note and of course, it indicates some odd suspiscioun on his part. As I've discussed all over this blog and my main site jbhfile.com, one thing is a constant with my father and in regards to our relationship: he is always in need of mental stimulation and at the same time, has zero hobbies or subjects of interest with which to engage so he invariably falls back to age old habits and suspiciouns around myself and such are never positive. In short, he constantly thinks I'm "on drugs" ... "drinking again!" or "smoking weed". It's like something that is engrained and a carry over from child hood years. Personally, I love the whole legal marijuana scene and follow it closely. I think it's a good thing that the use of the material/substance is becoming less offensive in a cultural regard but I myself do not partake of the substance either for recreation or for therapeutic means as it's not a productive option for me (too strong). So I have not partaken of "the dank!" for over three or four years now. Add to that the complications around possibly having to do a drug test for any (HOPEFULLY) new job opportunities and abstaining from such is even more wise in my opinion. But the fact remains, whenever he is here and I am here, the only thing his mind has to gravitate to is me so the more I am out of sight or otherwise engaged elsewhere, the better. My recent trip to Bay City over the weekend was an example of the various means I employ to keep distance between us during our mutual waking hours. And the hard inverted schedule method is even more useful as it squarely puts my work hours within the time that he is sleeping. Furthermore, my hope is to be employed /somewhere/ soon and during the same evening/early morning hours if possible.

MON 03/16/26: Daily Log

• cleaned bath and vacuumed, mopped housewide floors

• Organized waiting Quickbooks work

• Mailed two new work invoices to CLYLE at TGS

• Inputted waiting Quickbooks invoices/bills/payments/deposits

• Phone call from TOMMY to pick him up at shop around 11am so that he could bring his Audi up to shop to do work on it (rotate tires/etc.)

• Second phone call from TOMMY around noon letting me know he was bringing his Audi back, too big to work on in garage. And that he’d need a ride back to shop. Gave TOMMY ride back to shop after he brought Audi to the house.

• Per TOMMY instruction created $XXXX.XX cash register invoice to cover a recent deposit that needed invoice-description in Quickbooks; made note to contact ACCT to inform of somewhat unusual process

• TOMMY request to review random Insight Software data breach notification to determine if it is of consequence; determined data breach was non consequential and left note on TOMMY desk informing of such (no financial, tax or medical information breached)

• TOMMY request to fix email on persona HTIRE laptop. Login was throwing it’s usual, monthly verification. Email logins are generally automized with browser keeping track of the password for subsequent logins but Yahoo and other similar providers will enforce a routine check despite browser password managers as a matter of protocol.

THUR 03/12/26: DAILY LOG - Other Notes...

• cleaned bath and vacuumed, mopped housewide floors

• Organized waiting Quickbooks work

• Inputted latest Quickbooks work ensuring that all invoices/bills/etc. From the previous month had been completed so that ACCT could begin his work

• Assisted with TOMMY shaving/cutting of hair 

• Assisted with TOMMY cleaning and rebandaging of recent surgical wounds

• Had moment with TOMMY. I was engaged in office with headphones on, working on audio projects and doing benchmark/game testing/stress testing of hardware. Heard distant banging and thought it was from within the stress test/3D scene I was rendering. Went on for five minutes till I realized it was TOMMY. Opened door and claimed I had not heard due to headphones.
  
  He was in need of having his bandages changed in advance of the morrows doctor appointment. While bandaging, he claimed that he was about to “break the door down” because he didn’t know if I had had a stroke or was somehow incapacitated.
  
  This was immediately alarming as there is no need for him to think such things but it’s also not an exaggeration as he would do just that. So I am re drafting the nuances of tenant landlord law that clearly define periods when a forced entry scenario is okay.
  
  I told him that there may be times when I’m in my room working or otherwise engaged for days at a time and that he would be out of bounds to do something like breaking the door to my private space if I did not answer calls/knocks within a couple hours.  The law clearly supports this and I’ve cited it to him on numerous occasions.
  
  He is having frequen skin surgery for cancerous lesions and is in a high state of need in regards with assistance to the dressing and redressing of the recovering surgical sites which I am happily assisting him with.
  
  But this does not preclude the inappropriateness of believing he can “break down the door” when his tenant simply does not answer for two or three hours, even a day. Said tenant is busy, in other words and I also calmly informed him that the correct thing to do would be to phone me because even though I may be involved in a personal project, I would  nonetheless answer my phone. Especially understanding the distress he’s currently in and with obvious need for physical assistance with his recovering surgical sites. Again, something I am very happy, even proud to do.
  
  But I have to present legally /presentable/ data before things progress to a critical point, for instance, him literally breaking down my door because I do not answer it due to having noise cancelling headphones on, working or otherwise engaged at times for up to 8 to 10 hours at a time.

• Furthermore, I’ve made plans to stay Friday through Sunday with a friend so as to give him a bit of space and to “brute force” the point that there are times when I am simply unreachable.
