January 29 Daily Life Update | Family, Farewells & Rese

Yesterday wasn’t a typical work or content day, and that’s okay.

I got up early and got dressed to attend my great-uncle Tommy’s funeral. It was held at a military cemetery in Cape Canaveral, about 45 minutes from home. Military funerals have a different weight to them—quiet, structured, and emotional in a way that lingers even after you leave.

After the service, much of the family went out to eat together, but I chose something different. I rode back with family and later went to PizzaVoli for dinner. We had pizza, lasagna, and a beer—nothing fancy, just grounding and familiar.

When we got home, the night turned into packing and goodbyes. Family headed out around midnight and are still traveling. The rest of the evening was calm—light household tasks, decompressing, and handling a few practical things around the house, including taking the breaker back out of the pool heater.

It wasn’t a productive day in the traditional sense, but it was a necessary one. Life doesn’t always fit neatly into schedules, and sometimes simply showing up and getting through the day is enough.

Today is a reset. New day, new page.
