Today we celebrate the birth of DebetEsse! I hope you are being spoiled today and that the year to come brings all you hope for and more.

Drive by as I am off cross state to be there for the finish of my 16-y-o great nephew's triathalon. He lives about a half mile away from me here in Otter Lake and I watch him run and bike by my house often as he has trained. He has done a couple already, and is on swim team in school. His dad just messaged that he has already finished the swim.

Happy, Happy Birthday, Debet!

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Happy Birthday Debet!

Wow, my nephew came in 1st in his age group! 2:56:58 on the 1600 meter swim, 23.4 Mile Bike, 10k Run. He had no clue until they announced it. Impressive.

That which does not kill you should RUN

His group was 15-19 year-olds. He was 13th overall for the men. Seriously badass.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Happy birthday, Debet!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Debet!

Asshole Neighbor is having work done on his car, and the horn has been honked a number of times. At first I thought it was just him, since honking his horn repeatedly is one of the things he does to annoy us(along with playing his tv too loud), but it was some guy I didn't recognize. Ah, well...

Happy birthday, Debet!

Congrats, nephew of Laura!

Alas, the house with the cute porch had far less cute signs of water damage and termites in the basement. But it was fun to check it out, and I’d definitely consider a house in that neighborhood in better condition.
