We went to an escape room today and we missed it by about THREE MINUTES. We had even figured out the clue but just kept typing in the answer wrong. We are so bummed! We did a lot better than the last time, and honestly that made it more fun. It also helped that we…

We played the National Parks board game, which I thoroughly enjoyed even though I lost. Even Robin played without pouting. It was nice to do something together as a family that we don’t normally do. We haven’t done anything like that in a long time. Too many other things going on. Christina beat us all…

Today was the kids’ last day of school. Christina walked home wearing her bacon costume and got honked at a lot. We went out to eat to celebrate and then Robin asked to go to Barnes & Noble afterwards. We bought a few books. And by a few I mean too many. Luckily we have…

The big victory I had at work on Friday ended up being a big flop when the technology failed to cooperate. I’m back to where I was before, which is a “meh” option. Much less flashy and impressive, but technically gets the job done. Maybe I can find a way to dress it up somehow.…

Billy accidentally bought me such a thoughtful gift. He had suggested that I bring my DSLR with me to Savannah and I told him that I wasn’t going to bring it because it’s bulky and also because I can’t really see the image or the light meter through the viewfinder since I am mostly blind…

I wanted to wimp out of this morning’s race because it was so hot, but Monica pushed me to go anyway and I’m glad I did. It was already 77 degrees by the time we started at 8am, with 92% humidity. Very soupy run. But I ran it without walking for the second time since…

I thought I finished digging out the patio this morning, but YouTube says I need to dig another six inches around the whole perimeter. Looks like one more week before I get to play with the compactor. Robin went to the mall with her friend Alejandro and Christina and I painted pottery while they wandered…

We went to see Michael today at Christina’s request. It was actually pretty good. The girls kept poking me and saying, “I know this song!” I always kind of hate when you go to a movie only to find out at the end that the movie is two parts, but this time I was kind…

We went to Carmine’s Pie House to celebrate Robin’s 8th grade graduation. We got off to a little bit of a rocky start, but it ended up being a pretty good night. I had a win (or at least the start of a win) at work today, too. I configured a GPT to help build…

I had a pretty good day. I accomplished a lot of things at work that have been going on for a while, and that felt good. The day slowly slumped into crap, though. Robin came home from her 8th grade field trip in a good mood, but that got erased when she had to set…

Today was a busy Wednesday. Rushed from work to therapy to NAMI, dinner at 8:30. This is how it will be until this NAMI class is over in a few weeks. It was a pretty good class today. We shared stories and even finished a little early, which was unexpected. It’s a good group.

I missed my first day in this project since starting it in 2023. I’m so upset! Nothing to do about it now except keep going. Robin graduated 8th grade today. The ceremony was really nice. I cried during the reverse rose ceremony. I stopped myself from being audible, but it was hard. I’m proud of…

We had another nice day today. We spent almost the entire day shopping. We did have ice cream for lunch, which I do recommend. My ice cream cone, which was technically only two scoops, weighed approximately four pounds. So much delicious ice cream! We went to a very fancy restaurant for dinner, which was as…

Siggi and I had a great day touristing around Savannah. We took the trolley tour around town and visited Forsyth Park, St. John the Baptist church, ate at Clary’s, and took a house tour of the Owens-Thomas house. We had a rooftop dinner overlooking the river at sunset. I loved the house tour, and I’m…

Today was a busy day! I went for a 30-minute run and then Christina and I went paddleboarding. There was just enough breeze to blow us around and cause enough current to be annoying. I drifted into the grass once, but it was ok. After that, the four of us went to Salento for lunch,…
