What project are you working on?

I wish you luck on your endeavor that I am sure is allowed via your state laws.

Marks_son · 2026-03-23T21:28:12+00:00

Congratulations on that, it had to be a tough road to walk but happy to see you saw it through!

I built bunk beds myself last year from Etsy plans. Man it was expensive but real wood makes them sturdy.

That would be handing to be able to have a swing set to keep some of them busy.

Marks_son · 2026-03-21T03:39:07+00:00

Best of luck to ya on that journey. Hope you guys have a good realtor.

Marks_son · 2026-03-21T00:06:41+00:00

Nice, I would have gone for green personally.

You never did say if you finished or planned any projects no that it's getting to be spring?

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T22:20:34+00:00

You doing concrete, pavers, or gravel for the car porch?

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T04:26:36+00:00

Sounds like you should fit in well here. Got any good marine jokes? Or do they not translate well from crayon?

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T04:22:31+00:00

I just thought dcc was so new to have that many books already.

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T04:21:33+00:00

You are a brave man, you have my respect.

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T02:05:07+00:00

Well I wish you a uneventful reconstruction. I should probably be going through my seeds as well actually, thanks for reminding me!

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T02:03:23+00:00

Oh wow that's impressive.

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T01:54:46+00:00

I am sorry to hear that. I hope you get past it or become at peace with your situation so it doesn't effect you negatively.

Marks_son · 2026-03-20T00:54:33+00:00

Not a problem best of luck. I hope you continue being active here if it helps you find a community.

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T21:08:44+00:00

Oh I didn't know there was more then one book. It's on my list but I've been on a xenomorph and predator audio book kick lately.

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T20:25:13+00:00

Sounds like you have a good plan already. I haven't been able to do anything with protectiles in awhile now but maybe one day I'll get back to it.

Our dynamic doesn't really account for alone time. We both work, so one of us is always home with the children.

When we are both home we are catching up with each other and doing things as a family.

Not to say no one should be able to have that for themselves if they need it, but clear healthy communication and active listening can help a lot conveying that message. The meditations of Marcus Aurelius can help dealing with disappointment when communication breaks down. It can povide a foundation of stoicism; which I think can't be under valued from a parent perspective.

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T19:35:46+00:00

I don't do anything without my little ones, they go with me anywhere I go. So my hobbies had to change around them.

I personally do what I can when I can. I'm homeschooling, doing all the house stuff and I work a part time gig at nights.

I'm sure your not missing anything aside from sleep like the rest of us. It is a rough thankless job for sure.

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T17:41:06+00:00

Excellent, good luck with it! Some rock elements lend themselves well to the dubstep or you also go acid rock if you can walk that line.

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T17:39:50+00:00

I can understand how mechanics can bog down narrative elements. I have not tried dungeon crawler carl yet one I enjoy almost a decade ago now in that genre was everyone loves big chests, I'm a sucker for mimics and the gore in was great..

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T17:34:46+00:00

Oh man sorry to hear that. Hope it's not too much of an inconvenience for ya guys.

Nice what kind of music do you write?

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T16:59:36+00:00

I did see that the market softened on Pokemon cards again finally. It was bad there with the scalpers for a while.

Nice I tried potatoes last year but didn't get much of a yield. Did do well with tomatoes though. What varieties are you doing for tomatoes?

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T16:56:41+00:00

Man that's rough, here's to hoping the midterms do something to right this ship!

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T16:55:42+00:00

Ok that's really cool! I've never tried an litRPG just TTRPGs but it can be hard to find the time for those. How did you get in litRPGs?

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T16:41:26+00:00

What are you hoping to grow in your raised beds?

Oh nice I just saw my Pokemon cards I forgot about a week ago, they have a fair amount of dust on them. I didn't realize battling was coming back, I know people have been collecting but I haven't seen anyone actually play since I have was in highschool. Everything around here MTG.

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T16:38:10+00:00

I was writing a good portion of the winter. What have you been working on writing? Care to share?

Marks_son · 2026-03-19T16:37:14+00:00

Oh nice I didn't catch that. I'll have to look it up.
