I know it should technically be #1 and #2, but 27 was the number that came to mind so I went with it. Maybe I’ll roll it out backwards. I like that. It feels spicey… Does this mean I’ve just committed to 26 more Life Hack posts…?🤔 Want
I was thinking...Sometimes there is power and momentum in having nothing to lose. When the Oilers were in the finals they were down 3-0. The commentators were commenting that hope was running out. Then miraculously a 3-3 tie in the 2nd period. The energy shift was visible and palpable

I don’t realize how much I feel my pieces gone until they all come back when the kiddies come home🥰 Now I can breathe deeper again. My cubs, my nestlings, are back in the nest. We laughed. For the first 2 hours of our drive home we swapped stories
I took each of my kids on a one on one trip over the course of 3 years. Bannon was about 6 and was totally into airplanes. If there was a plane in the sky to be seen, he’d see it. So for his trip I knew I wanted
