The Reset: Getting back in the game

Let’s be honest - life moves fast. Somewhere between the 9-to-5 and the bedtime routine, the extra stuff usually falls off the plate. That’s what happened with this site.

Heading into 2026, I am firing this thing back up and will use it to keep track of the work it takes to be a better dad, a decent cook, and a healthy human. This is where I’ll document the struggle and the wins—the Hops, the Homers, and the lessons learned in between.

I’m planning to use this space to keep myself honest about what I’m actually doing. That means raising two boys, being an IT leader at a credit union, and reclaiming my health as an out-of-shape former athlete. Most nights, it just means being the primary cook and trying not to burn dinner. It’s not a highlight reel, but it’s just the reality of training for life as a Dad while rooting for sports teams that can’t seem to win anything.

I’ll be posting here every Sunday (and maybe during the week). My goal is to move away from just consuming and getting back to actually creating something. I’m glad you’re here for the ride. You can also follow along on Instagram and Twitter.

Until next time.
