My two year old son is just learning a few words right now. I’m looking forward to the day I can have an honest conversation with him, explain things using words, and get to know what’s going on in his tiny little adorable head.

Moving out of Texas. Waiting for the school year to end, and we are getting out of this backwards state.

[–] vivadanang@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

Best decision I ever made. I knew I wanted to live away from DFW, but fam..... finally too many good job opportunities for us both were just not available in the south so we made it happen. Cost of living is higher but QOL is much better. Good luck!

[–] Phen@lemmy.eco.br 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Were you able to move out yet? How are things going?

[–] hactar42@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

We're currently under contract to sell our house in Texas. 2 more weeks until we close. My wife has been up in CT looking for houses, but the market up there is insane. We've put in 6 offers on houses and lost 3 of them. Still waiting to hear on the others. But house or not we are out of Texas at the end of this month.

Retirement… omg, retirement

I think I’m the only person in the universe who is actually looking forward to the PlayStation Portal handheld being released in a couple of weeks. I loved the Backbone One but it was annoying having to take the case off every time I wanted to play on my phone. The PlayStation Portal will fit my use case very well.

Two years later, did it live up to your expectations?

[–] aCosmicWave@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Not to be a shill, but it exceeded my expectations! I use it often and with a hardwired PS5 I’ve had absolutely no network issues.

I've been wondering that for a while. I'll let you know when I think of something.

Having a secure and comfortable, well-paying job with health benefits before I die.

Sigh…

I've had 3 spinal surgeries (discectomies). I also looked forward to them.

I've been feeling a bit down lately but I'll be buying a new car soon so that's cheering me up a bit.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] DeathWearsANecktie@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Not sure yet, but I've got some money saved up! It will be a used car but I'm ok with that

I've got about 50 books "saved for later" on amazon. I expect to have the spare cash to buy them all sometime soon.

[–] radix@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Hey, that's great! I hope you can have a nice cozy winter and read through a few of them.

[–] steeznson@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Looking forward to this weekend when I'm finished giving the best man speech at my friend's wedding. I'm sure it will be fine but the knowledge it is coming up has been intruding on my relaxation time this week.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

Going to see Godzilla Minus One at the end of the month. That's pretty much the only thing I've been excited about in the last year or so.
