Current Status (updated 4/24/26)
It’s been almost 2 months since I last updated my status page. Too much in play lately with many other priorities taking over my routine. I really have nothing to update on my status at this time except it’s status quo. Essentially, every day is another opportunity to put out fires and deal with a long list of high priority items that have been lingering for a long time. But I spend all my time dealing with matters that will not go away until I deal with them directly. I am getting no help from anyone, and in some cases, others have become obstacles in making progress. But that’s life, and as long as I have another day, progress will be made. Eventually, I will get to where I need to be as long as I have enough days and maintain the ablity to check off the boxes. My status doesn’t change much as each day is similar to the last - rinse and repeat.
Often at the end of the day, I decompress with a home cooked meal, a glass of wine, and a little YT viewing of videos that are fed to me that I find extremely interesting. Google knows me better than I do which is a bit disconcerting. But it is what it is until I can find a way to ween myself off big tech instrusion into our lives.
I found this video to be very entertaining as it illustrates how much LA and California have been destroyed by the people in charge. It’s so pathetic that you almost need to find the humor in what is going on to avoid becoming a mental case. Every day brings another day of chaos, and I cannot escape it for now. All I can do is try to survive and work around all the crap and hopefully avoid getting personally involved in all the mayhem. It has literally taken me nearly three years to recover from the assault on Memorial day 2023.
So many thoughts went through my head when I viewed the video below. I’ll just end with the following. It Mae be Wong, but isn’t it better to have a pole on your head rather than your head on a pole? I decided to title the video ‘Wong Pole Longer’. I’m here all week.

This is not the type of update I was planning to provide here. In fact, this update is illustrative of how my time is not used wisely in achieving high priority goals. But hopefully, this update will also give you some confidence that things are going to be resolved one way or the other, and the distraction and obstacles the Sako represents will go the way of the Dodo. I for one am very optimistic that at least, things will get back on track toward achieving goals and meeting objectives.
The email threads document a deteriorating dispute between John Brayton and Ailuro Phile regarding the management of several storage units and unpaid debts. Brayton repeatedly warns Phile about looming eviction deadlines, rising rental costs, and the potential disposal of belongings if payments are not made. In response, Phile describes a series of personal hardships, including financial instability, health issues, and a vandalized property in Las Vegas that prevented her from generating income. The conflict escalates as Brayton accuses Phile of avoiding responsibility, while Phile claims that Brayton’s actions in clearing out units constitute a criminal loss of her property. Ultimately, the correspondence illustrates a complete breakdown of their relationship, ending with threats of legal action and the imminent forfeiture of stored items.
I even learned a lot from this audio summary. There are obvious flaws and misinterpretations of the facts, but that goes with the territory. Garbage in , garbage out. But overall, very informative. Got it wrong regarding the squatter in Vegas. Brett is her neighbor, not the squatter. I forget the name of the squatter, but he was not the squatter Lucky. (the squatter who lived there for many years). The last squatter was a guy Sako met in a seedy part of Vegas while she was tracking down her lost phone. She invited him back to her house. He was just another conartist, of course, and conned both Sako and Brett. Brett thought that he was a person who could help Sako fix up her place, but instead, he brought over all of his derelict friends and stole everything and thrashed her place. Not rocket science to figure all this out. Bad decisions result in bad consequences. Of course, she wants to blame Brett for everything related to this latest cluster F.
