Excited for day 2 of the Bitcoin Freedom Festival.
This trip is counting as an "educational absence" for the kids & they have to do a project when we get home. It's going to be difficult for them to pick a topic as we've done quite a few activities.
I'm thinking our daughter will do hers on the Chocolate tour we did on Tuesday and our son will do his on the Bitcoin Freedom Festival (this would not be his first school project on Bitcoin).
Either way, I'll be finding my way again to the marketplace π

We are constantly joking around with our 12 year old daughter. A year ago, it was impossible to joke around with her - she would immediately get upset with us.
So, last night she comes downstairs, super excited & shows me her braces. I asked her: "what am I looking at?". She gleefully responds with: "my teeth, they're getting straighter!!!"
I laughing said: "oh honey, you'll finally be pretty"
She quipped back: "I know, I'm sorry I won't look like you"

(Before you judge, our daughter is beautiful and knows that I was completely joking ππ. I had to share because of her ridiculously quick response ππ).
@Derek Ross didn't like his Nostopus getting cold in the snow. Brrrrr

Thank you everyone for the wonderful birthday wishes!! It was a fantastic day with family - just what I needed ππ
Another real life conversation:
H - "Mommy, can I fill my candy dish up with these?" (Mini candy canes)
K - rolls eyes at her
H - excitedly says "thank you"
K - "uhm, I never said yes"
H - "but, you rolled your eyes at me, which means you don't want me to, but you're going to say yes"
π€¦πΌββοΈ. Apparently I'm easy to read π

Real life conversation:
@Derek Ross hits his head on a lamp
Me: "oooh, are you okay?" (Genuinely concerned, it sounded like it hurt)
Derek: (with husband attitude) "no!"
Me: "oh, what's wrong?" (Confused by his 'attitude')
Derek: "I just hit my head on the lamp"
Then we laughed at my stupidity ππππ
Sometimes, I wonder how I've made it to (almost) 41.
I also wonder how Derek's tolerated me for nearly 20 years ππππ
Apparently, there are a few F-bombs in my future π
I needed something mindless to work on tonight. It was a complete shitshow at work today. I love my job and what I do, but today had me second guessing all of my career decisions.
Enjoy my newest project... F-Bomb


I'm still coming down off the high of #Nostrville.
I'm not a Nostrich, and I don't understand much about it... But the community is incredible. I'm anxious to be a part of more gatherings and possibly get more involved in the community (as time allows)!
(My attempt at an orange & purple pill... FAR from perfect ππ)
