I’ve been wanting to read more, but keep putting it off. We finally went and got new library cards and set up the Libby app to check out books with. Really excited to get back in to reading more.

I forgot to post my photo for yesterday.

After a long day of zipping around, it’s time for some quiet time with cousins.

It’s been a long time since I’ve used personal photos as wallpaper on my devices. However, I’ve been using the photo shuffle wallpaper on my iPhone and I’ve really enjoyed it. It feels a bit like a digital version of carrying photos in my wallet. Pick up my phone and there’s a photo of my daughter or wife. Thinking of it like this made me want to keep this around. Shannon and I now show off which photo is our wallpaper, each hour, when it changes. It’s a fun trip, together, down memory lane.

True story. 😂

Playing around with Drafts again after a few years.

After finding this post, it’s safe to say that my last experiment failed. I may have a better idea of how I might want to use it now & I need to force myself to use it consistently.

After spending the day with kids running around and chilling in the bathroom for thunderstorm and tornado warnings, I wonder if I can find some solitude in the fort that the kids made?

After a few weeks of sun and warm weather, it was cloudy and rainy today.

Not super secure when the key breaks off and you can’t lock the box anymore.

My birthday was last week, but had a small birthday cake at my moms. Not sure how I feel about the candles situation at this point. My daughter did have fun putting them on though.

I forgot to remove the auto renewal on an old domain that I don’t use or want anymore. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I love visiting with my nieces. I get to be viral famous on the twitsnapbooktock.

There is no reason that an app should be asking for your Wi-Fi password. My mom got some smart plugs and this is what it’s asking in order to set them up. 🙄

One thing that is nice a out Twitter, is that if someone shares a link, then I can view it in the web without logging in. That is not the case for Facebook posts. It requires you to log in and it’s really annoying. I wish that they’d change this.

Found this letter from my grandparents, from 1998. Seeing my grandfather’s handwriting again after all these years brought a smile to my face.

I was really hoping that I wouldn’t have to deal with pollen or allergies for another month or two. 😔🤧

When flying last Friday, our five year old got sick on landing, from some slight turbulence.

After she threw up, she looked at me and said “I know what it is. It’s morning sickness.” 😳 😂

Today is going to be one of those days. Happy birthday to our first born, our sweet little peanut. My heart is overflowing with all of the feelings and emotions and what ifs. She would have been 8 today. 😔 ❤️
