Hey again,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other day, we were driving and noticed this vehicle. The license plate says “KHAAAN” and they have a live-long and Prosper decal on their window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is a pretty great plate. I pulled up next to them just to tell them it was cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know what is nice? Having a vehicle that we can open all the doors and even the trunk (and frunk) while in the garage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What else?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the last weekend (when we went to Tillamook) we took a trip downtown and picked up some free basketballs thanks to the Blazers. So now we have an updated photo with all 4 kiddos and the sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few days later, we watched the Blazers make the 14th pick in the NBA draft. I hope things start to turn in this franchise. Something has gotta give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And finally, something I’m not sure many people wanted to see happen ever again came true. The first debate between Biden and Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They attacked each other, Trump kept spewing his lies. His mannerisms have stayed the same, and so has his narrative. Biden had a muffled voice as he was getting over a cold, and at the end of it all, commentators were saying that he should consider not running for re-election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, Trump vs an unknown person? It is a bit amazing that Democrats are turning so quickly on him when he won the last election and came into this one with a cold. Biden isn’t doing himself any favors though by saying he just isn’t as good at debating as he once was. American politics is a mess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeah…. I do not want to say much more about that. It’s a truly exhausting topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
