T-shirt outlasted my career…?!

Laura got me this when I first started working in engineering around 33 years ago.  I wore it again the other day to celebrate unemployment :)

New yummy burger spot

This opened up over by Andy’s house and we had to try it.  Smash burger style.  Really good.  He made the mistake of ordering a quad burger.  Just a little too much meat…

I rescued several baby birds

They’d somehow gotten into the bottom half of the barn and couldn’t get out and back up to the eves where their nest is.  So I helped them find their way out.

Laid off just after…

Pretty funny to get this in the mail a week or too before they didn’t need me anymore hahahahaha.

“Model printed successfully” 🤪

Sometimes 3D prints don’t go as planned.  This was what we found after the printer sent us a message saying it’d finished successfully LOL! Notice that the bulk of the print has been thrown off to the left side of the printer and landed on the desk! 

What a face

Zoe is just too cute sometimes…🐶

I might have bought Julie something…

We bought the smallest package of the cheapest seats we could find.  We used some of our Christmas and Birthday allocation. Just barely enough to qualify for these free season ticket holder gifts.  

These would be decent seats…

It was fun hanging out in the arena with my girl❣️ What a weird date 🤪

We found Elmo at the Blue Jacket hockey open house

Sesame Street was there years ago and this balloon got stuck in the rafters (left pic).  Somehow, the internet did its thing, and now Elmo is an unofficial mascot.  Can you  find him in the right pic?

Julie and I hit the open house

We’re enjoying cheering for the Blue Jackets sometimes too :) I liked this mural at the main entrance.

Top tier melted Chloe pic…

Chloe’s antics while melting into the floor have become a daily feature in our immediate family group chat.  This one took the cake!

My antique display brings back many memories.

Trying the cultivator in the garden, working the tractor and plow with dad, the gate our pony’s stall and meadow, cool items from Andy’s work…❤️

Zoe was embarrassed by being tied to a pig…

She was waiting for her pup cup I was getting her at Graeters while we were at City Barbecue hahaha.

At the Dayton Art Institue

Laura stumbled onto my nephews art during her recent visit to the Dayton Art Museum❤️  

So nice to be getting some good exercise again

I forgot how fun it was to Roolerblade around, and how good of exercise it is.  I’m remembering some of my skills and getting my balance/comfort back.  Pads and helmet are important for an old dude like me…
