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”

Fun night yesterday with the elder princess, she’s still trying to figure out her new bedtime routine. Things in the big bed aren’t working out and she’ll be going back to her crib for awhile. She seems to need the restriction of a crib and a sleep sack, basically a blanket she wears. As theContinue reading “22 October 2025”

AT&T is installing fiber optic internet in my neighborhood. We currently use a local internet company and having lived in Philadelphia and New York using Comcast and Time Warner respectively, I have a healthy dislike of big internet companies. We likely won’t be switching internet providers. Regardless if anyone here plans to use it orContinue reading “21 October 2025”

We had a good weekend and I hope the world did too. The elder princess has started sleeping in a twin bed and is out of her crib. She slept there for the last two days and hasn’t caused any trouble. It is hard to understand kids growing up because I’ve been grinding away tryContinue reading “20 October 2025”

Yesterday I was writing about how tomorrow isn’t guaranteed and indeed it isn’t as last night the little princess was waking up in the middle of the night and by 5 AM she was ready to start the day. Those are some hard nights since there doesn’t seem to be anything I can do besidesContinue reading “17 October 2025”

Last night’s sleep went well, now onto today. Bill Murray’s Groundhog’s Day is an important piece of media because it exemplifies real life. We can do everything perfect today and still wake up tomorrow with a blank slate. The kids having a goodnight of sleep yesterday doesn’t really effect the odds of them going downContinue reading “16 October 2025”

Last night was weird, the elder princess is getting older and with that comes staying up later at night. We’re still trying to figure out where her sweet spot in time is and the best approach to get her to sleep at a new time, there’s also the looming of adjustment of day lights savingContinue reading “15 October 2025”

We’re back from a long weekend, we used the time off to visit the beach. We were in the Gulf of America and I was able to get that on a t-shirt. Along with a Gulf of America shirt, I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled over the next year or two for some good 250thContinue reading “14 October 2025”

Yesterday I was able to tighten the belt on diet for the first time in awhile, I have to actually look at how many calories I’m intaking to do it properly. I don’t have to expend to track calories, so my strategy was to not eat. This isn’t fasting, just a constant reminder to stopContinue reading “8 October 2025”
