  • La fin, pour l’instant

    Aujourd’hui, je n’étudie pas pour la première fois en 271 jours. Pourquoi? Espagnol est mon parler préféré maintenant. J’aime français, et j’adore France. Mais, l’opportunité ici aux États-Unis est petite. A l’avenir, nous ne voyageons pas au Le France, et mon esprit de corps pour étudier est une peu. Tous les jours, je deux parler…

  • Spring Clean

    Our house is probably going to get quite messy in a few short weeks. The optimal strategy would be to relax your standards now, after all, why bother polishing the dunny when there’s going to be a turdinator 3000 in the building? Instead, Ky and I cashed in our discount voucher and booked the 3…

  • Terrific

    Three weeks ago, our dishwasher started making some strange sounds. We called maintenance, and employing an interesting strategy, they decided to take the misbehaving part. Interesting, how so? Well, they didn’t replace it, so we went from a noisy dishwasher to an ineffective one. There is something mildly infuriating about playing Russian Roulette with a…

  • Out from the back

    When do you give up on an optimal strategy? That’s a great question, and one that I have been thinking about quite a bit about recently, especially since learning a little more about soccer and the tactics that seperate the contenders from the pretenders. I am no expert, but the one thing I have half…

  • Anti-vax

    First off, I’m of course not anti-vax when it comes to ALL vaccines, but I tell you what, this latest TDAP has me going down the rabbit hole. Ok, you’re probably freaking out now, so let me add some context. To protect our upcoming child, I recently got the TDAP (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) vaccine.…

  • Pumpkin Patch

    Last Saturday, Ky and I went to a pumpkin patch to pick up a decorative gourd. It wasn’t a half bad experience! Many people are fascinated by farms. I’m one of them, as are the millions of people who tune into Clarkson’s Farm. Even David Beckham has decided that the best way to plonk his…

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.
