ACCOUNTABLE UPDATE
"See Through"
Trade wars, sanctions, a rising dollar, increasing costs at the pump, and weakness in emerging markets characterized Q2 2018. With a constant stream of policy and mood Tweeting adding to the information processing machine that is otherwise known as stock and bond markets, a sense of rising uncertainty seemed to be the theme as of late.
It has been a hectic start to the summer in the @ATXAdvisor household. In addition to our normal weekends at softball fields watching my daughter play in tournaments around Texas, we've added in a whirlwind of activities that will ultimately see my oldest off to college soon.
We just got back from his New Student Conference and are about to leave on a vacation with a couple of his close friends and their families to celebrate their matriculation from high school. All of that is to say I have not had time to write much in the Accountable Update lately.

I played with the valves some, looked for ideas on the internet (tap them a few times), I tapped them a few times, then I went about my day hoping that when I checked back later, the drip would have stopped.
The next morning, my wife went outside to retrieve something from her car and came back in with a question. “Have you seen all the water in the driveway,” she asked?
