Child proof your home...…...at least until he's old enough to appreciate and care for your things.  It's tough being a dad.

Good luck .

Nice coin, but hopefully you can replace the capsule without issue. Thanks for the story and be careful !

Enjoy your journals, funny, good stuff. .

The replacement capsules arrived on Monday and I swapped it out without a problem with a little help from a soft cloth. I'm just going to have to be more careful, but at least I have some extra spare capsules now!

Revenant,... My apologies, no disrespect intended. I tried to edit and delete but to no avail. I'm sure you've already recognized it for what it is, seen it before, and brushed it off. No need for a return response. One bottle of wine lasts all year, half a bottle twice year.. I'm good. I enjoy your journals, funny, good stuff. .

The apology is appreciated but I really wouldn't worry about it! You're right that I just kind of shrugged and moved on but me not responding shouldn't be taken to mean I take offense. While I respond to comments a lot I don't always respond - only if I have something I think is worth saying. You are far from the worst "offender" when it comes to long responses that don't always mesh well with the original point - and some don't need wine! It's something you accept when you post things online in places that allow people to post and comment back - and you really can't be too easily offended if you're going to go and post rants - as I sometimes do.

I'm sure the stress of these times are also going to get to all of us in one why or another and I think we all owe each other a little more patience and understanding than we offer during normal times whenever we can muster it.
