TGIF indeed! This week has been a busy one. I plan on celebrating Mother's Day with family and volunteering for Stamp Out Hunger 😄 What about you?
Going on a business trip next week, so packing and just hanging out with my gf mostly 😄
Family-related arrangement taking place at our house tomorrow. Our house has been drafty with in-laws for a few days now, and it'll peak tomorrow.
So my weekend won't start until tomorrow evening when everyone has left. I am about to head to the store to buy myself a six pack of IPA as therapy for the PTSD I'll be having tomorrow. There's no better cure for social exhaustion than beer, factorio, and some eclectic music of my choosing.
UPDATE: The day is here. May the gods show me mercy.
Drafty in laws is hard.
Good luck, enjoy the IPA
Sitting on the back porch in Oregon City this morning. I’m recording and identifying birbs with a birb app. I can hear a woodpecker off in the distance. Last night we went to one of those casual sushi places with the food going by on a belt and you can grab whatever you like and start eating! I grew up in a rural village so I’m pretty easy to impress. I think we’re going on a helicopter tour tonight, I have never been in a helicopter so I hope it’s as super cool as it seems.
Sounds like a great time! Hope you enjoy the helicopter ride, that should be a lot of fun
Reading your comment was relaxing. It sounds very enjoyable.
I have never heard of sushi on a belt!
Also birbs are awesome.
My wife and I had a baby a few weeks ago, so we'll hopefully be figuring out our first mother's day while taking care of a newborn. Hoping to get us all out of the house for a bit if the weather is nice enough.
Congratulations!
Congrats! There’s a bunch of dad-based communities on Lemmy. None are as active as this community, unfortunately, but definitely join some of them and reach out if you need any advice from other dads!
Edit:
Maybe some potential consolidation to discuss here?
Yeah, I think I even suggested that awhile back on one of those communities. It might be worth me reaching out to each of the mods to try and coordinate that.

Hello everyone,
Randomly stumbled upon @orangeNgreen@lemmy.world's comment in another thread about the different dad communities:
!dadworld@lemmy.world: last post 10 days ago, previous one 1 month ago
!daddit@kbin.social: last post 2 weeks ago

!dadvice@lemmy.world: last post 2 months ago
!fatherverse@midwest.social: last post 5 days ago, previous one 2 months ago
So I guess there are some conversations ongoing, but they are scattered all over the place.
Should we maybe discuss a potential consolidation?
Congratulations!
Going to the opera tonight! My favourite tenor who I have an absurdly huge crush on is singing. Thinking of flinging my panties at him at the ovation, just kidding but by GOD he is hot in a cape and some knee high leather boots.
Hope you had a good time!
It was stunning! The soprano is someone I've never heard before singing an incredibly difficult role, and her voice blew the roof off.
Going to read on my balcony (if the weather cooperates) and bake cookies.
I also want to make something different for my meal prep next week - can you recommend a hearty vegetarian recipe? Any cuisine is okay.
I love black bean and sweet potato enchiladas!

I am vegan so I just veganize them. Easy peasy to adjust..
Black beans are soooo good
I love them so much!!
Thanks! I've never made enchiladas before 👀
Easy peasy!
I intend to relax as best as possible, in order to prepare for a monday morning clash that can decide my immediate employment.
Maybe potter a bit around the house, do some cooking and spend some time with my family.
Going to try a new fancy pizza spot tonight with a ladyfriend! Excited!
