The weekend of cousins visiting was a success. When playing in the pool one of the kids broke a pipe that sprays water and Alex said the prophesy was fulfilled of having guests break things, but unlike other guests it was fixed before they left. This concludes the end of my Summer visitors and withContinue reading “22 July 2024”

Alex arrived safely and we were able to record the podcast last night without a hitch. Well the only hitch I can think of was that the headphones he normally wears have a USB end instead of AUX which I’m used to for headphones. We shared my computer and there are only two USB slotsContinue reading “19 July 2024”

The queen had ordered a car shaped pool float for our princess and yesterday I inflated it, she is obsessed with it. The float has been very helpful in keeping her entertained in one spot, she’ll sit in it pretending to drive and do whatever else she needs to. The princess was eating in theContinue reading “18 July 2024”

This morning I took the princess to a park. She loves slides and the playground here had three of them. After going down the smallest slide she approached the big spiral slide, looked down it and said, “No.” Then walked away back to the small slide. That’s fine by me, I like seeing that sheContinue reading “17 July 2024”

We got in contact with the Tractor and equipment repair shop and he was confident he’d be able to help, even offered to come out the same day. There’s not much rush for it, getting the mower operating next week would be great, by then we’ll be done with our hosting, the baby will beContinue reading “16 June 2024”

Last night the queen and I used the pool for the first time officially. We’ve gotten in the pool already, that was before it was clean and the chemicals figured out. Additionally the water is fairly warm now where it’s been a little chilly anytime we got in before. Chilly water and uncertain of it’sContinue reading “27 June 2024”

The grass got mowed and the screw I was concerned about got lost. There’s a cover for the pulleys on each side and each cover has two screws, I even tightened all the screws before starting. In the comments I saw loctite will help, I also thought about getting a nut on the other end.Continue reading “26 June 2024”

Heavy rains falling this morning, everyone knows watching the rain is one of my favorite pastimes, this morning I had to get the princess to daycare. The roads around us are not great for rain, it seemed like they’d be worn down where car tires go and water gathers there to the point it feltContinue reading “24 June 2024”

We had a whirlwind weekend, my wife went to the hospital from work on Friday, then had an appendectomy on Saturday and we got her home on Sunday. Friday was also my daughters second birthday, we celebrated with mom once she was home. I can’t remember much of what happened this weekend aside from whenContinue reading “17 June 2024”
