Like the previous months of this year, the weather was crazy in May. It actually snowed on one weekend in the middle of May (no accumulation but there was a lot of flurries and hail). That was winter’s last hurrah though, because after that it was almost summer weather (with AC on). To celebrate, we started thinking about summer furniture – eventually we decided on a set from IKEA. I’m not sure how much we’ll actually use our patio set and it might get in the way of the kids when they want to play in the backyard. We were finally able to go to parks too and started the kids on their bikes again. Apollo still remembers how to ride but he still has to work on his strength (both in his legs and grip for braking). Jovian can sit on a bike, but his feet aren’t long enough to pedal yet!
I didn’t play a lot of Hearthstone this month once I got over the excitement of the new expansion (basically finished the quests to get the free packs). My game-of-choice is still Star Trek Timelines and I think I’m in a weird position where I’m starting to get a decent crew of max level characters and can do well in the events; but the difficult of the shuttle missions are starting to spiral so that my crew isn’t capable of finishing them. Even spending more money wouldn’t really solve the problem because if I have better characters, I would still need to spend a lot of time, resources and shuttle missions to get them to a usable level.
