Welcome to another cozy Sunday Citar session! 🌿 Here's where we all gather to share a favorite quote—something inspiring, amusing, or deeply moving that resonated with us this week. (Citar = to quote in Spanish, by the way.)
“They know me in a way no one else ever has. They open me to things I never knew existed. They drive me to madness and push me to my limits. They are the rhythm of my heartbeat, the pulse in my veins, and the spark in my soul. They are my kids.†~Terri St Cloud of Bone Sigh Arts
I'm sitting cross-legged on the kitchen floor surrounded by a chaotic pile of football gear and printouts of quirky sayings like Cream Cheese Kickers and Sideline Salsa. While I snack on leftover pad thai and sip the dregs of a can of Dr. Pepper, I reflect on the past week. Naughty? Yes. But also kind of fun in its own messy way.
At the end of the day, my mind rewinds the highlights like they're being broadcast on ESPN. There are flashes of the kids running in opposite directions while I stood helplessly between the swings, trying to call them back. Or the mornings when my daughter walks in looking like the Pied Piper, her younger brother trailing behind clutching his Nana-gifted Lightning McQueen blanket. And then there are the proud moments—like when Aliyah gleefully declares she dressed Brayden all by herself—or the ones where I burst into laughter instead of tears because, well, laughter is better than crying (even if it’s contagious).
On days like today, where there’s so much to do but I let myself pause for a moment, I realize I’m exactly where I need to be. My daughter rests on my lap as we search for fake puppy shampoo on her Leapster for her pretend pet. It’s chaotic, but it’s beautiful too.
As I raise my nearly empty can in a toast to this fleeting moment, I feel incredibly fortunate. Fortunate to embrace the transformative power of parenthood, to feel my heart sync with theirs. Fortunate that some days end without a shower because it means there was enough “kid†in it to keep me busy. Fortunate to feel both overwhelmed and proud of the challenges they bring, knowing I’m capable of handling it all.
They’re my kids, my heartbeats. The small, imperfect moments that make life extraordinary. I’m not just lucky—I’m deeply, abundantly blessed.
Today’s been one of those days where chaos and joy collide. The kids painted with food coloring, made a mess, and somehow managed to turn it into a game of hide-and-seek. I couldn’t help but laugh—it’s messy, yes, but it’s also a reminder of how simple moments shape who we are. So here’s to embracing the chaos, finding beauty in the small things, and celebrating the people who remind us what truly matters.
A roundness tester is a measuring tool that uses the rotation axis method to measure the roundness error of a workpiece. The roundness tester is divided into sensor rotary and workbench rotary. During measurement, the measured part is installed concentric with the precision shaft system, and the precision shaft is equipped with an inductive length sensor or workbench for precise circular motion. The roundness meter consists of an instrument's sensor, amplifier, filter, and output device. If the instrument is equipped with a computer, the computer is also included in this system.
A roundness tester is a precision instrument used to measure the out-of-roundness of a rotating surface (shaft, hole, or spherical surface) of a component. There are usually two types: small desktop, where the workpiece is mounted on a rotating workbench and the measuring head is mounted on a fixed column; and Large floor mounted, with the workpiece installed on a fixed workbench and the measuring head installed on the rotating spindle. During measurement, the measuring head contacts the workpiece's surface, and the instrument's rotating part (workbench or spindle) rotates for one cycle. Due to the extremely high accuracy of the supporting bearings in the rotating part, the measuring head will generate a high-precision circular trajectory on the measured surface during rotation. The out-of-roundness of the measured surface causes the measuring head to shift and transform into an electrical (or pneumatic) signal. After amplification, it can be automatically recorded on a circular recording paper, and the out-of-roundness of each part can be directly read out for accuracy evaluation and process analysis and widely used in precision bearings, machine tools, and instrument manufacturing industries.
The Roundness Testeradopts a radius measurement method and operates in a rotating manner. The rotation axis system of the roundness meter adopts a high-precision air floating spindle as the measurement reference; The electrical part of the roundness tester is composed of advanced computers, precision circular grating sensors, and precision inductance displacement sensors. The circular grating sensors and precision inductance displacement sensors measure angle and radial displacement, ensuring the accuracy of measuring the angular displacement and radial value of the workpiece; The roundness meter measurement software adopts a roundness measurement software based on the Chinese version of WinXP operating system platform, completing data collection, processing, and measurement data management.
