Hello! 😍😍😍

    🖋️ New Pen Day!

    Never taken all 3 pets to the vet at the same time before. It’s going about as well as you would expect. This is the best picture I could get in the chaos.

    🦅 Neville Arena with a pretzel in my hand? It must be Auburn University gymnastics season. Love being here with my wife and kids watching these incredible athletes.

    🖋️ If you followed me before my return to blogging last month, you probably read about my love of digital task managers. A desire to slow down during COVID led me to a new love of stationary and bullet journaling. My A5 sized plotter now runs my life.

    I really like it here in Austin. Glad I get to come out so much for work.

    🖋️Final photo of Penmas. I’m having trouble capturing how pretty this pen is in the light at my mom’s house. This is the Pen Addict 15th Anniversary Benu Euphoria, and it is gorgeous. Had to ink it up with some PA/Robert Oster Fire on Fire.

    🖋️I am so excited about my next Christmas pen. My first Sailor. The Pro Gear Christmas Spice Tea. A burnt orange pen with gold glitter in it? Matching ink? There isn’t anything more Craig.

    🖋️My family has graciously supported my fountain pen addiction this Christmas. I’ll post some of my presents over the next few days. First up, a Fountain Pen Case from Toyooka Craft in Japan! @brad, you are a bad (good) influence.

    Currently Inked 🖋️

    I promise I use non-Iroshizuku inks fairly often, but I’ve been on a kick lately.

    Looking for bright spots in all this. I don’t remember the last time this happened. Special shoutout to doing @gonoodle with my kids for helping make this happen.

    Apple Music Replay: New year, same story.

    My valentine from my almost 6-year-old featuring an AT-AT from Star Wars. Why she chose to call me by my first name is another discussion, but this still makes my heart warm today.

    Only in Nashville can you just happen upon puppeteers from the public library and Ketch Secor of Old Crow Medicine Show performing his children’s book “Lorraine.” I love this city.

    In January I set a goal of earning all 12 Apple Activity Challenge badges. I did not factor in what it would be like to have a baby in July and didn’t know I would start a new job in the fall. So I didn’t meet my goal, and I’m perfectly ok with it.

    Day 1 with the Series 0

    Series 0’s final day

    Series 3 Day 1

    Last day of Series 3, first with Series 5.

    🏈 This game had everything: Pick 6s, kickoffs returned for TDs, Tim Cook 25 yards away from me, a missed Bama kick, last second nail biting, an Auburn win, and most importantly, the McClellans in the house for our first Iron Bowl at Jordan-Hare. War Damn Eagle. 🦅

    Spotted what appears to be a black MacBook at my local coffee shop. I’m simultaneously filled with nostalgia and impressed with its longevity.

    Our anniversary was a couple weeks ago, but we celebrated tonight with “Schitts Creek Up Close & Personal.” Guys. I was in the same room as Catherine O’Hara, and it was delightful.

    9 years. 3 kids. Multiple career changes. Putting up with the foster care system. Good times. Hard times. Still crushing it. Happy anniversary love.
