    We had a HOA Rules & Regs review meeting last night. It will take several weeks to review and update the Rules & Regs.

    We have had 2 votes so far, both were unanimous if you don't count my vote. This is going to be a long process.

      I’m sick and tired of political debates… So what was the most interesting thing that you did, today?

      Eh, so far, serviceable. No out-and-out blunders, so now it's a matter of "how good can I get it?" Gonna try to get it into a good place here and there over the weekend.

      Please love yourself.

        Had a good parent-teacher conference with our 1st grader's teacher. Our oldest kid has always been a unicorn... smart and polite, so we are lucky. They're already doing fractions in 1st grade!

        Also I'm in the midst of the worst time of the year (kidding), my mom's birthday is 2/13, valentine's day is 2/14, and my wife's birthday is 2/15. On the 4th day, I rest.

          We used to have so many birthdays in February (sadly, some have now moved on) we'd just buy one full-size sheet birthday cake, put nine names on it and throw one big party.

          Fun times.

            I was shocked to discover that having our anniversary on February 2nd doesn’t get me out of Valentines Day.

              LOL... my wife has made it clear that Valentine's Day and her birthday are two very separate celebrations. Although at this point in our life, Valentine's Day is 99% giving the kids a little gift, chocolate, and cards. They love it.

                We just decided that last year’s cards were unbeatable so we’d just use them again. Going out to dinner to a fun Latin place. Great margaritas.

                  We're going to a local Argentine/Italian place. Bonus is that the realtor that sold us our house gave us a $50 gift certificate when we moved in.

                      Oh sounds tasty.

                      My parents in law give the same card each year. They've been doing it for like 20 years. Same card. Honestly, I'd be cool with that... one card even has a battery operated sound and it is still going!

                        This is the one she gave me. It is apropos, especially "Yelling "WHAT?" from the other room".

                          As a guy with headphones on perpetually, I can relate to the "what" from the other room. I've given up on noise canceling, that's just a non-starter.

                          Education is extremely important.

                            LOL just this morning my wife was trying to tell me a story while I was getting the 4 and 2 year old dressed, both who are loud and don't stop talking, so I literally told my wife "just yell the story to me, I can't hear you!"
