Nationals, Day 1
I’m in Saratoga for the US AFL nationals, and just finished day 1. The good news is that we’re through to the semi-finals tomorrow, and thus our tournament continues. The bad news is that after beating the Portland Steelheads (?), we went scoreless against the Maine Coons Cats. They kicked 3-13, so it could have…

Octavia’s Birthday
It is hard to believe, but O turned two. 24 months ago she was just a little crying potato that we took home from the hospital, and now she really is her own person. It was a lovely day. Ky, as always, put on the full works; starting with a toy party outside her room…

Unbroken
I got my xray results back today. No fractures, no cracks. Still not 100%. It’s touch and go on whether I fly out. I’ll make a decision Thursday evening.

Navigation
This afternoon was committed singularly to fixing a too long ignored medical issue; my perennially sore ribs. About two months ago, a collision during a football game gave my lower ribs a real hammer blow, and it took about fours to recover. I have been doing light training, knowing full tell that in only a…

Sweeter, won
There is a quote from one of the classic movies of the early 20th century: “Money won is sweeter than money earned”. And while our family didn’t win any money recently, what we did win was a little cat toy from a claw machine. It took a few goes, and we could have ordered one…

Hen’s Do
My sister is currently on her Hen’s Do back in Australia. I just finished up running her quiz. Fingers crossed, I hope it was a success, minus a hiccup halfway through. Running a quiz from seven timezones away isn’t easy, but thanks to Claude, completely possible. We had a few rounds, and while the internet…

Why I started this blog
I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.
With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.
While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
