One of the Army Bros. is visiting while packing up stuff we’re getting ride of. We are funny creatures, last night we drove to get some food and my buddy was on the phone with the girl he’s dating. It was an ear piece so I guess he was ok leaving it in while weContinue reading “10 January 2024”

There’s a big rain storm going on, the pond is flooding. I love the rain and when the land floods, it washes away and cleanses. The sound of rain is the most complex song written. Dr. Suess’ Mr. Brown described the sound of rain as “dibble dibble dopp dopp”, I can’t say I agree butContinue reading “9 January 2024”

Packing is picking up, all weekend we’ve been packing, this morning I’ve done some packing, and I’m going to be packing once I’m done writing this. My Army bros. are taking a lot of furniture and stuff we don’t use, yesterday we donated about 10 trash bags of old clothes, and we still have tooContinue reading “8 January 2024”

Bit by bit we climb the mountain, there are places to stop for a rest and we can’t even see the top. There’s an expression people would say in running that if you look at the ground that’s where you’re headed. There are some people who get discouraged when they see others succeeding, worse ifContinue reading “5 January 2024”

Since the holidays I’ve been sleeping in in the mornings until the baby wakes up, recovering sleep and the Winter makes it hard to operate before sunrise. Today is also the first day of push ups, exercise had to take a back seat for the last month while things were hectic. While traveling, packing, andContinue reading “4 January 2024”

While on the topic of new words there’s some others I wanted to document. “Drip” is a word I’ve been hearing since the beginning of the year unsure if it would catch on, then one of the Army Bros. was using it. Drip basically refers to clothing, gear, or merch, everyone is rushing to catchContinue reading “3 January 2024”

A new phrase I heard was “trad life”, pronounced with a hard “A” sound being short for traditional though. Norm McDonald had a joke that the word “cis” was a way to marginalize an otherwise normal person and it’s the same case here. Asking people randomly if traditional and normal are synonymous, I think mostContinue reading “2 January 2024”

New Year’s Day 2024

New year’s eve is over, back to work. I’m only mostly kidding, the Army boys are leaving today and there will be plenty of work coming in hot. Still, now is a good time for reflection. People were posting about how their year was, this has been one of the wilder years I’ve had inContinue reading “New Year’s Day 2024”

Glad to be at the end of the week, my wife had a nice surprise thinking today was going to be the last day at her old job only to find out yesterday was her last day, it’s a welcome relief. When it rains it pours accurately describes life, for stretches of time nothing willContinue reading “29 December 2023”

28 December 2023

The Army boys had a fight yesterday, these are guys that can be carelessly disrespectful because the average person would be scared to stand up to them. They also will not stand for a sliver of disrespect so when they lock horns no one is willing to back down. This is when I have toContinue reading “28 December 2023”
