[banging noises] [the sound of something heavy sliding over the ground, then stopping] ME (yelling): Everything alright?! MY KIDS (in sweet innocent angle voices and in unison): Yes dad! Don’t come up!

I am out of breath just from climbing the stairs. Not being able to run, or bike, sucks.

This morning, my train to work was delayed by one hour. But so was the previous train, so I took that one and arrived on time. Task failed successfully.

Man swimming

philipp

Swimming with the kids. My eldest only recently learned it and fearlessly jumps into the deep end whenever she can. I’m proud, but I’m dying a little inside every time she disappears under the surface.

It’s amazing how little I move while on vacation. I need to take a walk now if I ever want to reach at least half my movement goal for the day.

Person pouting

Either Google and Spotify are getting less and less useful every day, or I’m turning into a grumpy old man, yelling at things he doesn’t understand.
