Pigeonstorm — personal site

This site has been a long-running side project. I built it to share what I pick up where hardware and software meet—less a daily diary, more a place for notes that might help someone on a similar path.

Most of the time, though, my energy goes to work and to my family. My wife and our two children come first; raising them well takes focus, and I am glad to spend it there. Writing here happens when something feels worth the extra hours—not as often as I once imagined, and I am at peace with that.

Time with the people who matter is not something you can buy back later, no matter what else you have in the bank.
