Here's the front of our house. I would like to have more lights on the house itself, but I don't love getting on ladders much. I have some lights for the inside of the windows above the garage so it'll look a little less bare.

Season finale of #TAFC7v7 tonight. Fun match, even though we played the first half down a player. I scuffed at least 3 good chances at goal, but finally got one in the second half in the loss. Fitbit GPS was goofy again, so not sure I believe 2.92 miles but happy with the work.

Had to creep by the houses at the cul-de-sac at the top of the hill from my house and share with y'all.

Bullies do weird shit and think it's comfortable af. Lolzy hangs halfway over a sofa/loveseat arm and will just doze like that for hours. Like this:

Happy #WhiskyWednesday to all who celebrate. Been a minute since I dipped into the #WhiskyTourOfTheWorld collection, and this one's Austrian. Sulm Valley Whiskey from Distillery Krauss. Smooth, coats the tongue. Sweet, oaky, some fruit notes. Good stuff.

Happy gotcha day, big fella!

Fun night of #TAFC7v7 footy against our Thundercats pals. Brutal way to salvage a draw at the death via an OG, but soccer do be like that sometimes. Almost 3 miles says my Fitbit, but the GPS artwork looks like nonsense, so I don't buy that distance. At least the map itself finally looks right.

The soccer went wrong, and now so too has the washer repair. Drain pump replacement was the easy part.

Trying to replace the door seal boot when you've got a too-small replacement part is a recipe for frustration, friends. 0/10 do not recommend. Correct seal arrives Tuesday.

Spied a little on the east side camera person 😄

Also, today was the second match we've attended this season where the visitors left a marker disc on the pitch after warmups finished. This was the first time it was still there at kick. 🤣 (The AR did finally grab it a few minutes into the match)

Really solid lineup at the moment. Y'all know I'm not an IPA fan, but we sampled the Hay Bale fresh hop, and it's good.

Doing the garage thing again, in part because slick steps, but also because we've come to enjoy chilling with beers while we're waiting for the kiddos.

Another not-as-drenched-as-it-could've-been night of #TAFC7v7 with Old Growth FC and Tiny Dancers. 2 games, 2 goals, about 4 miles covered. Here's some GPS artwork from the second match.

Tonight's GPS artwork from a not-as-drenched-as-it-started evening of rainy #TAFC7v7 footy. Bagged a late goal off a loooong throw from our GK. Glad to finish that after flubbing so many chances prior. Just shy of 3 miles, only off the pitch for a few minutes in the second half.

Finished our excursion with a scramble through the northeast ZOS and into an unnamed eastern enclave where we found safe haven and more pints.

Best time of year.

Braved the terrorism, fires, riots, tank fire, helicopter gunship strafing, bombs, etc. to sample chocolates, wine, and canned cocktails

Another peculiar excursion on the GPS track from #TAFC7v7 tonight. Fun game, almost 3 miles since I had to play the whole second half.

July flippin' 14th! Still not pushed to my Charge 6 yet. There's a new (and way more useful) watch face, plus the Bluetooth support change will probably help my Charge 6 connect more consistently with my NordicTrack bike.

Nothing I can do about it - no way to force an update. 😠

Fun night of #TAFC7v7 even though it felt like I was under constant pressure every time the ball came to me. No goals, 1 assist, about 2.5 miles. GPS artwork looks pretty dead-on.
