  • Green Grass

    Green Grass

    I’ve cut the grass 1x so far this Spring and I’ve never had my grass look as good as it does this year! I’m not concerned with only having grass without weeds, but it was previously mostly weeds and a little grass. Hopefully this will also help with weeds in other parts of the yard…

  • Bathroom Update

    Bathroom Update

    Today I’m cleaning tile grout, sealing tile, and painting the bathroom my son uses. I’ve already replaced the toilet. Is it fun? no. Do I get to check off a to-do item and feel accomplished, which makes me happy? Yes!

  • Back to Work

    Back to Work

    It is fun? no. Does it fill my day with a sense of accomplishment? Sometimes. My job helps provide the type of lifestyle that I am happy with. Even though sometimes stressful, generally it’s not, and it’s not nearly as stressful as other jobs. I’m happy to have it!

  • Zone of Interest

    Zone of Interest

    Today I’m watching Zone of Interest, a movie nominated for a bunch of Oscars, including sound design. It’s an interesting, but tough, subject for a movie. Looking forward to it. Edit: Very good movie. I see why it won Best Sound at the Oscars. The sound design was basically the main character. I don’t think…

  • 2nd Music Bracket

    2nd Music Bracket

    My son is excited to share his 2nd family music bracket. The song 90210 by Travis Scott won the last bracket. He likes sharing his favorite music with his parents, and I’m happy to have a relationship with a teenager that still enjoys his parents! He did a handwritten bracket this time, just a little…

  • Yardwork

    Spring is just about here and the temperature is in the 80s for the first time. Time to cut some bushes and cut the grass. It doesn’t sound very fun, but I enjoy doing it.

  • Poor Things

    Poor Things

    Today I’m watching the movie Poor Things. I don’t keep up with many new movie releases, but saw this nominated at the Oscars and was recommended it by a coworker. Edit: It was a crazy movie, but awesome! So good.

  • Behringer Edge & Oscars

    Behringer Edge & Oscars

    Tonight are the Oscars (Academy Awards). Looking forward to watching a little and see what movies win and get some recommendations for movies I haven’t seen yet. Also, I ordered a Behringer Edge semi modular percussion synthesizer! I’ve been wanting it for a while and price just dropped. It’s on backorder, but should arrive in…

  • Daylight Savings & Coffee Date

    Daylight Savings & Coffee Date

    Tonight time “Springs forward” with the time change. Finally longer daylight in the evening! Also, my Mom found a Christmas Present she forgot to give us, a coffee and Chocolate pairing kit. So, we’re going to do that today. Edit: It was great, especially the chocolate.

  • Music Bracket Final

    Music Bracket Final

    Today we finish up my music bracket to see what song wins! This isn’t necessarily the “best” song from the bracket, but is the preferred consensus based on vote. I think when we are done, we should make a Spotify playlist with each of our final 8. The Final 8: Radiohead: Karma PoliceA Perfect Circle:…
