Picture Upload Issue

It wasn’t too long after I kicked off this blog that I tried to use the WordPress app to create new posts but ran into issues when trying to upload pictures. My work around has been to occasionally draft posts on my phone only to later to edit pictures on my PC, add them to […]

Winter in Florida

The last time it’s snowed in the Florida panhandle was 1989 and I was 8 years old. Now 43, with an 11 year old son and twin 5 year old girls who had never seen snow in person until this week. Not only did it snow, we had record breaking levels of snowfall. The nearby […]

Quotes

I’m often inspired by or simply find various quotes to be powerful, insightful, motivational, etc. Rather than randomly scatter them across various social media posts or simply in the Notes of my phone, I figured it would be nice to not only share them but also have them in a singular place.

Shed Build

It wasn’t originally planned this way but I got to a point with my Shop progress where I had the realization that our riding lawn mower, shovels, rakes, other yard tools and all saw dust making tools were not going to be able to call the shop home. They’d inevitably ruin the printers I have. […]

Dr. Andrews is a surgeon for knee, elbow, and shoulder injuries and is a specialist in repairing damaged ligaments. Dr. Andrews became one of the best-known and most popular orthopedic surgeons for his work on […]

Softball

This post is mostly just for me – for my personal record keeping because I am certain I won’t remember otherwise. On April 18th, 2022 I was playing softball at Oakland Terrace field and hurt my wrist attempting to make a sliding catch in the outfield on a shallow fly ball. I came off the […]

Water Filtration

Water makes up about 60% of our bodies and helps to regulate our body temperature, lubricates and provide cushion for joints, and aids in many other bodily functions as well. Yet there are so many who have limited access to water globally and even fewer that have access to clean water. We’re blessed in the […]
