Tennessee folk, today is the day to winterize your faucets! ❄️

Realtime follow-up. Wife and I turned around to talk about Rugrats. Five seconds later, Oliver was somehow on top of the table. We got our own Tommy Pickles!

Watching Rugrats with the kids. Totally different experience now that I identify with the parents. Show still holds up!

Church folk: Adobe Spark is amazing for social media stuff! Saves me loads of time each week. Highly recommend.

Warum haben deutsche Bibeln größtenteils festen Einband?

As a father I’m quite proud at how worn Rosemary’s St. Joseph’s Bible is. 💚

Fifty days of Latin on DuoLingo! I’m proud of myself for starting and sticking with this!

I watched 9 to 5 for the first time the other day. What a funny little movie! Not at all what I expected. 🎬
