More than half way through 2025... don't they say something about time flying?
All is well in the world. At least... as well as it can be!
The summer of 2025 is upon us, and many activities are abound. The boys have (and are) being shuffled from summer camp to summer camp, and little activities are here and there.
We are still unsure of our annual 10 day trip to North Carolina, a staple journey of this family, as we have been involved in so many activities/camps, that it just may not be feasible. I do not like this... but we may be able to put in a late summer/early fall trip. Maybe even a Christmas Trip?! We will see.
So what's been going on since the last post:
- Now a full fledged Water Operator. I'm really enjoying my job now, a lot less stress. There are still issues here or there, but they're either manageable, or beyond my control.... so I do not worry about them that much.
- The boys are doing fine. Oldest has been running Cross Country/Track/Marathons. He does pretty well. Can't believe he is entering High School.
- Automotive wise all is the same. Tacoma is running fine with 55k miles. The Passat is at 130k miles, and running well all things considered.
Starting to look at something to replace the Passat eventually. Leaning towards something SUV-ish, and possibly a Hybrid/Plug In Hybrid. We would love a large/mid size sedan with a manual transmission, but I guess they don't make those anymore.
I have been collecting physical Star Trek physical media, and cheap to not really cheap Casio watches. I have every Star Trek movie on Blu Ray and DVD. I also have the TOS Movies on VHS and every movie released on LaserDisc. I almost have every broadcast Star Trek TV Series. Still need to pick up TOS, and the current show, Strange New Worlds. If you even remotely like Star Trek, you should be watching it. I was not a fan of "Discovery", so I may or may not pick that up.
I think, after my wife and I finish on the light refresh of the house (painting, trim, etc) I might start working on a home entertainment system. Nothing crazy, but I'd like to get my Laserdisc players hooked up, and get a decent surround system set up as well.
I guess that's all for now.
...and probably for another year... or two.
