I have had my Sonata since August of 2021 and hit 30,000 miles today. 6 months left on the lease and so far have enjoyed leasing instead of owning. Each has pros and cons, for sure, but the relative “peace of mind” I have via leasing has been the biggest benefit to me. Have a great day! ~ Aaron

Each Friday in February and March I am covering the school day for Mozzie (we have been able to keep homeschooling him in tandem with co-parenting). These are nice days with him, mostly because I am removed from where my work is and am able to be more present with him than usual.

School day with Mozzie

I have an all or nothing personality. When I have a beard I dig it. I enjoy the process of keeping it and making sure it is in relative good shape. But when I am over it, I am over it. I woke up on Monday of this week tired of the beard, and so this week’s barber appointment was to cut the beard off and get a clean shave. The shave was painful and bloody due to dry skin under the beard, guess I did a poor job at caring for that while the beard grew in. Happy to have it gone for now, ready for warmer weather to arrive now :-)
