Millennial parenting achievement, I have successfully convinced my kids that Transatlanticism is “New Year’s Music”.

My two little ghosts
Our dogs always come back a shade lighter from the groomer from all the dirt that gets washed out. ?
The virtual coworking community I’m apart of celebrated its one-year anniversary yesterday.
Growing up!
I’ve always been of the opinion that if the weather is going to be below freezing, there should be lots of snow on the ground. ?
Contemplating buying a new machine
Trying to not let the cold weather interfere with getting that toddler and puppy energy out
Our 11-month old can officially climb up the stairs now. Nothing is safe and I definitely feel like I’ve entered the stage of living with two toddlers now.
New Five Iron Frenzy ?
In design school, a Five Iron Frenzy zip-up and jeans was pretty much my uniform. While so many bands from decades ago have been getting back together it’s more than a cliché now, this album feels different. It really has something to say. I’ve been listening non-stop all week and this review sums it up perfectly.
I’m grateful Micro.blog exists for a number of reasons, but today, it’s because it’s been the catalyst for me making 100 informal posts onto this WordPress blog (even if it took me awhile).

– Barack Obama to The Atlantic
My 3-year is absolutely obsessed with board games these days. Anyone have any recommendations for that age group?
A Call To Spy ?
I think what amazes me about the World War II era is just how many films and documentaries seemed to still be released about it every year. We thought Summerland was very good but it was a bit more niché. A Call To Spy really had something for everyone and retold such an important story. I’d definitely recommend for your next movie night.
Happy New Year! (this is 100% a scheduled post, I am definitely asleep)
Notes from Essentialism ?
Find the convergence of “inspired by”, “talented at”, and “significant need”.
Discern more so you can do less.
Zero-based budget your time.
If I didn’t have this, what would I be willing to do to get it?
What is the “slowest hiker” in your job or your life?
What is the smallest amount of progress that will be useful and valuable?
Ultimately, what is important right now?
If you’re using the original Independent Publisher WordPress theme and want a retina-sized Gravatar image, this snippet of PHP will do the trick. Reach out if bundling it into a plugin would be helpful for anyone.
