Weekend Update

We got our new EGO electric lawn mower and it is phenomenal. ha! I haven't mowed a lawn in 30+ years and the differences between the heavy, gas-powered mowers that you had to yank that thing to start vs. this mower (light, self-propelled, push button start, quiet) are night and day. It measured 70 dB on the Apple Watch which is pretty decent. It was a real pleasure to mow! And I mulched the grass (new term, just learned) so I didn't even have to bag or rake the clippings. I was embarrassingly proud of myself for 1) figuring out how to turn it on thanks to a quick YouTube tutorial and 2) actually mowing the lawn decently. + Christian told me to come look at Olin asleep because he "looked like a ballerina". + Olin had his first weekend of Spring Soccer and it was fun. A team that they lost to twice last season, and big losses like 12-0, they lost to just 3-1 today. Olin has settled comfortably in to right fullback, which coincidentally was my position all throughout my 'career'. + Christian finished his LEGO grand piano! He said it was a slight bit easier than Bugatti but cool to see how the piano pieces come together + I can't decide on paint colors therefore am just sticking with our old color. I'm not good enough at figuring out what looks good to make any kind of dramatic change and our current color is actually kind of nice. + About killed myself at Orange Theory today but it felt really good. You're supposed to keep your heart rate in the orange or red zone for at least 12 minutes and I got 47 today.
