Day 3231

 Yes indeed, another talkative independent goofball. How could that have happened?

Day 3230

 Maybe we should go rural? 

We can’t go rural?! How dare my work require my presence?!

It was all a mistake, we can go rural!

Have you seen how pretty city house is?

Rural house sold. We can’t go rural.

Why are there no daycares anywhere?!

We will live in this house until the books take over.

Day 3229

 How to distract children from eating their dinner and make them stick their whole heads in front of your phone: Olympic boats.

Day 3228

 Paying other people to do manual labour for you is a good stage of life. Especially manual labour during the summer.

Day 3227

 And then they fell down a rabbit hole of strange sports they didn’t understand with no commentary.

But hey, boats!!

Day 3225
