First time home buyer, so lots of firsts. First time going on a home search and checking out properties, first time shopping for a mortgage, first time going through contracts and legal documents, first time trying to find an inspector, etc.

Boat ride amongst Niagra Falls. Day before the total eclipse.
This year I went scuba diving for the first time! Also, I did my first job switch, been good so far but I constantly doubt my abilities. Also first time daily driving linux recently 😉
Cool. What is your job?
Screw R&D engineer. It's weirdly specific 😅
That's not nice. R&D engineers probably work really hard. Do you do more work on the head, or the shaft? I am legitimately interested by this.
I work hard but my new company seems to respect work life balance so far. So far I've been working more on the tip of the screw, but it depends on the goal of the project. Almost all of the features of the screw can be modified to meet the needs. A big part of the work is to verify that a change or innovation can be produced at a good quality level.
Elderly raising. I have elderly relatives that needed care and I've begun the process of fulltime care at my home. I was told this would be the easy version of being a mom (as if).
