I’m getting some life back, the little princess was growing four teeth at once, so there was a lot of crying and little sleep. Things seem to be improving with her sleeping until 4 AM last night, big win! I know I talk about my sleep too much, but it’s probably the biggest issue inContinue reading “29 October 2025”

There’s challenge to stay hard when times are good. Why would one want to stay hard? Life is hard, strong men keep the monsters at bay so civilization may happen. Recently, I talked about steel sharpening steel, but what does that mean? In order to become sharp, metaphorically the same as hard in the wayContinue reading “23 October 2025”
