    My phone sounded an alarm last night around 2am. Apparently, the National Weather Service issued an "It's Extremely Serious and Totally Gonna Happen Flood Warning". When my wife checked her phone after I woke her up accidentally, she had the same thing but her phone didn't sound the alarm.

    Then around 330am, the house was smelling very strong of smoke. It wasn't the forest fire kind it was the your house is on fire kind. Got up frantically and ran around, not that much unlike this: . But quietly because my wife and sister were asleep. Went outside and didn't see/smell anything on fire, so I'm wondering if the evaporative cooler was making it worse or if my evaporative cooler fan motor is about to die.

    Hey HB! How's HB Jr doing?

    I'm doing well, finally finished the 5 weeks of 3, 1 week long work trips. Got bronchitis, so that sucked. But now I'm healthy and back to my regular working everyday schedule.

    I woke up with a smoky house when the Black Forest was on fire... That was scary. I went apeshit.

    HB Jr is great. Starting to say lots of words, running around and enjoying being a boy. We spend a lot of time outside.

    Awesome about HB Jr. I visited my niece last week when I was in VA and I am amazed at how much she is speaking (she's 4.5). The last time I saw her was about a year ago but she has improved so much!!

    My wife is excited, she only has 3 more weeks left of work then she gets to sit home for the rest of the pregnancy with her feet up relaxing!

    My wife is doing well, pregnancy has been a piece of cake for her aside from swollen feet. Rest of my family is doing well too, not too much to brag or complain about so that's good!
