These are the good old days.  I know I’m gonna miss this evening routine some day.  Their evening routine is pretty consistent.  After dinner they do their chores.  Taryn washes the dishes, Jude puts them away, clears the counters and picks up the floors.  Then they fix a snack (sometimes frozen fruit, sometimes Jude makes a sourdough pizza), snuggle in with one or two of the dogs to watch an episode of TV once the little boys are in bed.  Its fun binging some iconic shows and movies with them.  They laugh in all the right places and memes they’ve seen online are now in context.  So far we’ve done a handful […]

Day 2 WCA Cubing Nationals 2023 looked like this for me.  I way overdid it yesterday while still deep in recovery from my injury.  I am so frustrated with my body, slow healing, lost stamina, constant pain.  I want to be there every second and my body just won’t let me.  My goal is to be there every other day for a balance of rest and recovery.  So today I texted, watched videos, played the livestream and refreshed stats about 8000 times.  Jude had an incredible day!  He set a new PR (personal record) for clock average and made it in to the finals where he came in 14th!!!  It was […]

Our daily view. This kid has worked so hard at speed cubing and he qualified for the national competition in Pittsburgh that starts tomorrow. Not only did he qualify, he was notified a few weeks ago that he’s a featured competitor and will be front and center on the live stream for his main event!! We are so proud of him! So many decisions we made this year where to make sure Jude and Jonah made it to nationals. We rearranged, juggled, lived in the least convenient time zone for 6 months, added travel days to get them to more competitions, more events for […]
