Yesterday was a success, the little princess was very patient hanging out in the garage as I exercised on the bike. As we’re feeling rested, more improvement will happen which also requires more rest, especially in the beginning days of change. Laundry even got done yesterday, I don’t know why it feels like a bigContinue reading “19 August 2025”

I was walking the dog and my neighbor flagged me down to give me these shrimp that were in the gulf that morning, he was deep sea fishing in South Louisiana. We prepped the shrimp and it may have been the first time I’ve shelled and deveined shrimp. My elder princess was very curious andContinue reading “18 August 2025”

They call it being the bigger man, but always feels like settling. I’m supposed to forgive everyone and when they don’t even apologize, how’s that fair? It’s not and it’s not supposed to be fair, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Being able to apologize or forgive without confrontation makes us stronger. My egoContinue reading “15 August 2025”

We made it back from New Orleans, so was Chrisfest a success? Sure in the sense that we made it there and back. Old friends and groups coming together is complicated scenario that will take time to unpack, I haven’t even physically unpacked my bags. One friend was asked to leave for disorderly conduct, soContinue reading “14 August 2025”

The down side of a neighborhood is any time I step out the door I’m likely to run into someone. At the end of the day my dog is wining to go for a walk, two days ago I crossed paths with the owners of two poodles. The humans were nice though the poodles wereContinue reading “6 August 2025”

Last night was a little sweaty, at some point the AC went out. Living in old houses up until now has been nice because if this happens we can open up the windows and they’re designed for air flow. Our current house is air tight which helps the HVAC system, but now feels like IContinue reading “5 August 2025”

Good morning, back to the grind. This is the last week before daycare starts for the elder princess, that’s when I view my life in the new house as starting, right now could still be considered unpacking from the move. We’ve also go our New Orleans trip this weekend, so I’ll probably be missing aContinue reading “4 August 2025”

When I unpackaged the armor, I didn’t immediately wipe of the oil and it looks like there was some staining. The stains aren’t a big deal as part of the experience is to consider how should armor look, is it similar to a big clean truck that never gets used for its purpose or hasContinue reading “1 August 2025”

Yesterday was good, I got some unexpected birthday presents with the arrival of two packages. The first was some tshirts my queen had made for our New Orleans trip and the second package was some armor I ordered for my crusader costume. The steel armor was coated in oil and will need to be maintainedContinue reading “31 July 2025”

Happy birthday to me. Thank you. There won’t be much celebrating today though we’ll be going to New Orleans in a couple weeks to celebrate and I plan to wear the king costume from my podcast. An event worth celebrating this morning was my elder princess spelling the word “mat”. For the last couple ofContinue reading “30 July 2025”
