Priorities shift

Hand drawn, thank you card by a person with differing abilities — The backstory is incredible. Sparing the details for now (and maybe forever). Serendipity and karma made us interstate friends in our son’s college town.

Like a broken record, everyone is going through a hell know one knows about.

Through tireless parental efforts and parental advocacy, even a 30-something non-social, non-verbal child has managed to adapt and live a unique, yet incredibly different life.

Imagine the life these parents dedicated to supporting their special child. In the future, Andrew is going to face challenges the parents will likely not be around to advocate for.

Forgive reprise

Forgive unhealthy habits. We all have them. Ensure your good habit batting average is “hall of fame” worthy.

Everyone is going through a hell no one knows about.

If you doubt this because you are an exception, you are one blessed human.

Forgive

Four adults on a golf cart on the street — A photo like this will never happen again. Forgive. And never forget what you learned.

The three-day Memorial Day weekend is history.

Reflected on how we used to covet three day weekends.

At Disney, “We work while others play.”

For me, a lifetime of working holidays, weekends, nights, turnaround shifts.

Now, weirdly, every week is a seven-day weekend.

Working hard to not feel guilty saying that.

Fartlek spirit

apple fitness app summary screen — Wasn’t aware of the daily average. Big jump from 2022 to this year.

Kids on a playground never walk, they always run. Walking takes too long.

Fartlek is fun…

apple fitness app summary screen — Been using fartlek for nearly two years now. By the way, i’ve modified its application. Between the faster-paced running, i walk instead of jog. This is a multi-year effort to return to running. Slow-paced jogging inexplicably causes foot pain.
