Dusted off a concrete form system that I engineered back in 2008. It is much cheaper than the system I am using on my house, but no one wants to give planning approval/lend money for things that are unconventional. Makes me sad. I look at all of the crazy stuff built in the 70's and 80's and wonder if we will ever get back to such a creatively bold time. I might be able to sneak this into a barn or stables.

Heidi is enjoying her cousin’s birthday party! Her turn next week🙂

Helped my neighbor frame his roof today. Not bad for 3 guys who don’t do it as a day job.

“We miss you Robin”
There is a mural next to the first Quiznos that some artists painted right after Williams’ death in 2014. It is not in the nicest of places, yet I have never seen it vandalized at all. I think that alone speaks to his legacy. Life can be unbearable, but suicide sucks.

Great movie night with @mary and @Christine_Smith

Our church lost its oldest member yesterday at 94, Jack Schlieker. He was a great guy with a witty sense of humor, but more importantly he was a devout follower of Jesus Christ. One thing he always stressed was sticking to the truth found in scripture. The pandemic has taken a lot from everyone, but it was especially hard to see it basically cut everyone out of his life in his final year. Here is a video of him and his wife Virginia, celebrating their 70th anniversary last year!

A wise philosopher...

Next snow storm calls for a Back to the Future marathon!

Ok, going to see what all the fuss is about.

Update on Heidi. She was pretty grumpy after the surgery, but the doc said he had to wash the fluid out of her ears and that it was the consistency of glue. He thought it was probably impacting her hearing by around 30dB! She just woke up from a nap and we can tell that she is hearing things clearly for the first time! God is good! It is so great seeing her watch her go-to videos with a new excitement. Thank you for your continual prayers and praise God for answering them! Video to come soon.
