I got my dad a new smart thermostat for Father's Day, hoping it would make his life easier.

He just set it to 72 degrees, then looked at me and said, 'Now that's what I call a *degree* of comfort!'

I was going through some old family photos with my dad on Father's Day

and he pointed to a picture of me as a kid and said, 'You know, this is my favorite photo of you – it's the only one where you're not asking me for money.'

My dad's idea of retirement is not traveling the world, but finally having enough time to

finish the backyard deck he started 10 years ago

My dad always says you don't need a professional for home repairs.

You just need a can-do attitude, a YouTube tutorial, and about three trips to the hardware store.
