    Some things are unconditional, even at 5 o’clock

    My kids are completely zombified when they watch TV. Times and lengths can vary, but they pretty regularly get some show time around 5pm when we are prepping dinner. This is good for a bit but then turns mega-frustrating when we call them to the table to eat and they don’t respond. There could be…

    House renovation update: it’s “going”, just not sure where yet

    My buddy asked me how the house renovation project was going and I responded quickly without thinking: “It’s going good” I said. Then I thought about it more. “Welllllll, good probably isn’t the right word there.” It’s “going”, that is for sure, but I don’t know where just yet.

    Hiking Dumgoyne (but not quite because COVID)

    Got my monthly hike in to start 2022! Dumgoyne is a prominent little hill in the Campsie’s and something I’ve had on my list to get after on one of my hiking days. It isn’t really very high (427M/1400 ft), but it looks pretty cool on a clear day and is also just really accessible…
