The World Turned Upside-Down
September 11, 2001. March 25, 2016. November 24, 2024. September 28, 2025. These are days when time stood still and our world suddenly turned upside-down. There have been others, for sure, but these have been some of the most difficult days we’ve had to deal with in our 34 years of marriage. Julie: September 11 needs no explanation. March 25 is the day my mom took her last breath after 3 months in the ICU after a failed surgery. On November 24, John’s dad lost his battle with Alzheimer’s.

Don’t Roll Your Eyes and Say Whatever
Nick: Sometimes Jen does little things I don’t like. For example, I always make sure to turn off the headlights when I park the car, having had this drummed into me as a teenager.
