So far, I think I’m most proud to have passed on a love of pocket journals to my daughter ❤️ She loves scribbling on the pages and showing off what she drew.
After taking this picture, she disassembled the pen she was using, pulled out the refill, blew on it, and squealed “Blow bubbles!”. She has now been dipping the pen refill in and out of the pen body and blowing on it for the past few minutes pretending to blow bubbles. She is such a sweet soul. My heart is full.
I have much more important tasks to do, but it was nice to just sit on the couch for hours this morning with a coffee and put tabs on my Bible. It felt really good to accomplish something I want to do. The “have to dos” will have to wait.
My toddler was walking down the stairs on her own and yelled “big girl”! Then she saw me walking down next to her, pointed at me, and said “Dada big girl”! Takes one to know one. I’m honored.
I appreciate the people who put funny stickers around town. Always nice to have a surprise laugh!
A friend just called me by accident. It turned into a long call where he shared hard stuff he’s going through and I was able to pray with him. These kinds of “accidents” are the little nudges of the Spirit that help me see a quiet God in a noisy world.
Thank you Ace Hardware for your eclectic mix of products.

🔥🌭🤤🌥️🌳 Feels like summer!
I enjoyed a beautiful sunrise this morning from the back deck. Coffee and sunrises were made for each other. ☕🌄
Also, you can see the new houses that have been popping up on the street behind us.
I deleted my account with follow.it and moved my newsletter feed to be hosted by Micro.blog. The poor quality of follow.it wasn’t worth the $5/month I was saving by staying off of Micro.blog Premium.
Ew. I just noticed that follow.it changed how emails are delivered to my subscribers. This is such a bad experience for people who are subscribed. Sorry for cheaping out on a free subscription service. I’m going to switch to a new service soon.
I just realized that during the pandemic I missed an opportunity to make jokes about Nickelback getting popular again because Covid made everybody lose their taste.
As an uninitiated observer currently immersed in theatre culture, I marvel at the intermission bathroom experience. People leapt out of their chairs as soon as the lights dropped 0.3 lumens. There are multiple employees in red suit jackets directing the ladies on how to form a line for the bathroom. The men’s restroom was a large square with urinals dotting every open stretch of each wall, except for two stalls. Each occupied, with a long line out the bathroom. The atmosphere was polite but… competitive. The musical has been fantastic, but the sociological aspect is just as exciting. I love the little details of subcultures.
I never know what my brain will throw at me while I’m doing mundane tasks.
me: brushing my teeth
brain: I think it’s my destiny to create the first naan-profit organization.
After spraying our basement ceiling today I’m thinking of starting a makeup tutorial blog. Shoot me a message if you want a tutorial on how to get this look. 👨🎤
I just opened YouTube and the ad that played before a video was clearly AI generated. A handsome businessman reclined in a chair talking about his success as a stock trader. He said to join his Whatsapp chat to learn all his secrets. Spooky stuff. These hoaxes are obvious now, but in 5 years? We’ll see.
The key to doing your own taxes in 2025 is getting really good at inputting 6-digit verification codes. That’s at least 50% of it. Hopefully passkeys are more common in 2026.
Our disc golf league started up again for the season. It was a little wet today…
Early morning indie hacking on the back deck with coffee brewing… Bliss ☕💻
