My kids and @kimberlypb.bsky.social aren't home for dinner this evening because they are at various activities. This means that I can make something for dinner that they think is gross. I decided to be very simple: Malt O Meal!

Removed the "Education Matters" sign from my front lawn today. I plan to keep it so that I can put it back up in a couple years when it is needed again. The sign just may not have much meaning outside of Nebraska.

One year since we became a 3 EV family with the addition of the #Chevy #EquinoxEV! I really like the car, but still wish I could use Android Auto with it from my phone. Never will go back to an ICE car. This is a pic from one year ago--it's too cold outside to take a new pic today.

I am proud to say that I have retained the skills of being the "puke parent" between @kimberlypb.bsky.social and me. I am the parent who can clean up our kids puke without getting sick! I was put to the test this evening for the first time in a long time.

LilK and I attended our first Nebraska athletic event since early September. It's free to attend tennis. We were there to help him learn how to play tennis better, not to root for UNL.
