Weeknote (2-23-2025)
It's been a week, as every week seems right now. There's just so much going on right now: personally, globally, etc.
Leaving the big picture stuff aside for the moment:
- The kids had two "remote learning days" this week because of snow. We didn't actually get much (less than an inch) but that's enough to shut things down.
- We also had heat issues, on one of the colder days of the year. To make a long story short, we have an old oil-based gas boiler system and it's showing it's age. We got it going again on Friday thankfully (after it had gotten down to the low 50s in our house).
- Our daughter had a youth retreat and that was really great - she was gone Friday evening until this afternoon and seems to have had a blast. One of the biggest joins in life at the moment is seeing the ways she is really coming into her own at the moment.
- Our son had a scouts banquet that happened. That's about all I can say (none of his close friends came so he was pretty bored).
Anyways....I also changed this site up. It's focused more on microblogging and snapshots of life (like this). I'm moving links into their own short posts to send out to Mastodon and Bluesky and am rethinking what I want to do with these weeknotes. For now I'm going to keep the Last.FM collages because I like those quite a bit.
