Day 1–4 after Meniscus Root Repair Surgery was no joke.

Everyone says the first few days are rough… but Day 2 absolutely wrecked my sleep. I could not stay asleep to save my life 😴
On top of that, I went 4 days without a real shower — wipes help, but let’s be honest… it’s NOT the same 🚿😂

I wanted to keep this VLOG 100% real, no sugarcoating, so if you’re heading into this surgery (or just had it), you know exactly what to expect.

In two days, I go in for meniscus root repair surgery.

I’m still driving my school bus and talking about what’s coming next… including going on medical leave and why I can’t recover in our RV.

This video was filmed 2 days and 1 day before surgery.

Have you ever had to prepare for surgery while still working?

Have you ever wondered why school buses have emergency exit windows?

Sadly, it took the loss of over 100 children before the NTSB stepped in and made these lifesaving windows a standard on all buses. What started as a tragedy is now a crucial part of school bus safety.

In my newest video, I break down the history behind this safety feature and share some surprising facts you probably didn’t know. Plus, I’m testing out a new video format with skits—so you’ll get both information and entertainment!

🔋 Solar Upgrade Time! 🔋

I just installed a Victron Smart Shunt on my home solar setup, and wow — what a difference! Since I run different solar panel arrays with separate charge controllers, I could never trust my inverter alone for accurate readings.

Now, with the Smart Shunt, I can finally track:
⚡ Total voltage
⚡ Watts in & out
⚡ Battery State of Charge (SOC)

In my latest video, I walk you through the setup process step-by-step and even show real data collected over months of use. If you’re serious about solar or going off-grid, this tool is a game-changer.

👉 Check out the full video here: https://youtu.be/pZG7EVRO3bI
