The look in my daughters eyes when she sees me kiss her mom is priceless. Teach your daughter by loving her mother.

If you want to know the real meaning of work, read Frederick Douglass's account of his first time working as a free man.

After escaping slavery, his first job was loading coal onto ships. It was new, hard, dirty work.

Here's how he describes it:

@realEstateTrent Southern ice storms are different than “snow” storms of the north. It happens immediately as snow melts in a warm air pocket and then it sticks & freezes when it lands. It literally pulls down trees & affected areas shut down. Theres no plowing nor driving on ice. Its crazy.

@iamrags Has to do with inherent reactive (batter) vs proactive (pitcher) roles. Batter is entirely reactive. A hitters ability to recognize and react improves with every pitch they see.

@doomsdayslam @iamtomskinner Correct answer right here. Central Texas is in a league of its own for bbq. I’d add Terri blacks, stiles switch, muellers in belton and interstellar to the list

@DeanAbbott Great reminder. I’d add that this process is bolstered by knowing what you can change and what you cannot. Sounds simple, but we often accept things we can change and fight things outside of our control. Stoic philosophy gives a good strategy for sorting this out.

@austinrealtor It’s crossed my mind but violence with a son causes irreparable damage. My hope is that the only fighting my son is doing is to protect his family, not against it.

@mxltn1 @nickgerli1 They might be leaving Austin proper as it becomes San Fran esque but the Austin suburbs continue to be some of the fastest growing areas in the US, for good reason. Part of the recent price decline was due to a massive pandemic spike and a sh&t ton of building.

@thespearing Beautiful post. Esp the part about being at peace with the pace. We share that battle kind sir.

@ChiSoxFanMike @stolenbasesacad Using height and mph to evaluate a minor leaguer is even crazier

[Orange Book 🍊📖 @orangebook]

If you struggled financially most of your life, and eventually became financially secure, it becomes extremely obvious that nearly all your problems were financial problems, including the chronic health issues that came from unnecessary stress, exhaustion, shortage of nutrients, but also including your relationships issues that came from not having enough resources to become the calmest, happiest, most thoughtful version of yourself.

@alexforbes__ @CarolWalshReal1 Agreed. This glide is way better than the typical slide on a bar option like the dewault, Milwaukee & makita. Bosch saws are the closest thing to festool imho.

@bcbldr @JeffGrenz Love it. I’d vote nw Carolina, beautiful part of the country. Cheers and good luck sir

[Jack Headley @JackHeadley6]

@shagbark_hick Agreed and almost as brain dead as the folks who lump the whole south, or even all of Texas together.

[Jack Headley @JackHeadley6]

@realAAAbbott @michaelwatson2 So awesome

[Jack Headley @JackHeadley6]

@beefy1112 Nice! Hopefully you got your life back and it was worth it. We moved into my build recently too but I have a massive addition still to build - that I’m not looking forward to! Cheers
