Our 8th anniversary was last week. Came across this photo of us at our friends’ wedding in 2017 a few months before we got married. Amazing how much has changed since that time. You have helped me become a better human and I’m grateful to have shared this last decade with you.

One thing I did not anticipate when I became a homeowner was just how much tree management/removal I would have to do. Our hemlock died due to drought, two pine trees were planted too close to the driveway, and two ironwoods that grew to massive proportions next to the house. PNW, 4900 SF lot.

I like how as a society we've all just mutually agreed to ignore the fact that Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah is awful because Jeff Buckley's version is incredible.

Every time I go to the grocery store, I'm more appalled. I have no idea how typical Americans are affording life.

Pricing at present certainly isn't sustainable. I tend to believe we're shifting into a buyer's market.

I've had my eye on one of these custom enclosures for my Marantz 2250B for like 10 years. Maybe throw in a black faceplate and LED bulb kit. Santa?

After several years and multiple kids, I can safely say swim lessons for little kids are more of a teenage employment scheme than any sort of functional aquatic learning environment.

The lows in Portland are higher than the daytime highs in Michigan, which helps me keep things in perspective when the short days start wearing me out. There are many things I miss about home, but winter is not one of them.

Fascinating to learn that home prices only went up a modest 800 percent. Guess I'll switch to store brand coffee and that should even things out across time and space.
