Snow Days and Birthdays

Here in Akransas this last week, we had a lot of snow (for us). It was too powdery to make snowmen and then turned to solid ice (my driveway is still half ice), but the girls loved it. We bundled them up and they loved running around in it. They…

Saying Goodbye to My Motorcycle

I've decided to sell my motorycle. Financially, we need the money, but realistically, I don't really need it anymore. It's been like two years since I've even ridden it. I put a new battery in it over the last summer and still did not take it out for a ride.

Rough Start to a New Year

Well, it's officially 2026. My kids have been having a rough time going to sleep for some reason and then my wife was sick for the days around New Year's. So I was just up alone until a bit after midnight, not really doing anything. Our youngest puppy started having…

New Blog Page!

Well, I launched the new blog page today. There won't be anything on it until next year, of course. But hopefully the color scheme is okay and it all works the way I would like. Also, yesterday I failed and let the enemy win and my wife and I got…

Night Shift

It's currently just after midnight and I'm at work. Friday, we had to take my wife's old dog up to a vet where they determined he's got glaucoma and is blind in one eye as well. We had a good day, though. I was going to work during the day…

Holidays and Surgeries

I didn't get that other job I applied for, either. I didn't really expect to, but I am going to keep an eye out for fully reemote jobs in the company I work for, though. It's looking more and more like we'll move out to the property my parents own…

No Job Change, but We're Raiding the ARC

Well, they didn't hire me for that job. As mentioned, that's what I expected, but it still bummed me out more than I thought it would have. But such is life. I did go ahead and apply for another fully at-hme position within my company that would be tech support…

No News... and Pumkpins

The interview went well, I think. It was more casual than I expected, just talking to mainly two of the team members... but they could not tell me a time-frame for when I'd hear back. It's driving me a little crazy, not knowing one way or the other. I hadn't…

Updates and Orcs

Well, I'm going to have an interview about the job I mentioned in the last post. I'm a bit nervous, as I haven't really had an interview for like seven years. I did have to have one technically when the hospital I work at outsourced us to a new company,…
