Personal showing

It was a good day today, I got up early and took my wife to see the home I'm interested in and perhaps just luck found (perhaps something more?) the back door unlocked. So we had a personal showing and both found points that we liked. In fact we think this could be just what our family needs so the work is on to see if we can get it. I went to work after that and had a good night selling to keep my mind off how much I want to get this home. I guess time will tell but I think if all goes well I should know how feasible it is in the next few weeks.

Sorry for missing time

Been so very busy lately with work and seeking a new home. So once out of work I've been looking for homes for sale. We found one that has set the standards perhaps a bit high that was bought by an investor. So the hunt is on for the next perfect home. I'll work to keep the posts more regular. Once we get it I'll keep this blog to show regular updates of the progress.

Grandma's Visit

What A Day!
My mom was having quite a day her self and almost sounded as though she would be happiest if she could stay home and rest. My wife was also wishing for a quiet day, so when my wife called and spoke to my mom they agreed to having our visit some other day. As the day wore on my son realized that grandma should be here and asked what was up. We tried to explain that we could have grandma over some other day. No one could have expected what would come next! He was so upset, and wouldn't stop. I was able to reach my mom online and had her call to talk to him. As soon as he realized who was on the phone he explained that 'mom screwed up' and wasn't supposed to say that it was ok for grandma to stay home! Grandma you promised you'd come over! So with his sweet persistence my mom came over and we went to dinner. I mention this because it was at dinner that my son was explaining that he had picked out a game to teach grandma on the X-Box. I said we should play 'Halo' and that perhaps we could even get mom to play. Here is what my son said "don't you remember? We tried to teach mom how to play that and she sucked!" that is no exaggeration! My mom came over and bless her heart she played the X-box whit the squirt and made his day! "Grandma sucks at playing a little bit" he just told me but he has hopes of teaching her more on her next visit. Posted by Picasa

What a day!

I went to work and I guess it was ok, seemed to take forever though. It was after work things got weird. I went to my previous job to get my first/last check and got there and they were closed. OK, so I went to their sister company and found there was no way to get paid today. So I went back to the place I had worked to get the phone number and my car dies! I realize that I may have to actual abandon my car at a place where I just up and quit! I went and found a pay phone and with limited change I called for help help on the way I returned to my car happy about not personals being stranded but still not happy about leaving my car where the night crew would clearly not understand my cars presence. With nothing else better to do I try one more time and varoom! The damn thing started like there was nothing wrong!!! I raced to the pay phone since I didn't want the generous help to drive 10 miles to find me not there. I reach them and he's gone but has a cell phone so I have his ol' lady give him the update. phew! Made it home in one piece and started work on cleaning up the house. With my mom coming over I have to bust ass the get this place to look better of face the wrath of my wife!

Kick ASS! Today I got my new palm PDA!! I'm so happy I can hardly stand it. Backing up is easy and I can do it on my laptop and sync it to outlook and ohhhhhhhhh it great! It's like all the flowers are in bloom and the sky's are clear! Ok maybe not that great but very cool none the less. So now that the registrations are done and the stuff is sync-ed I'm going to look for games to go! LOL! I've been getting e-mails from people I don't know so if you just found my blog or web site and you choose to e-mail me feel free just give me a heads up about not knowing you and all. I hate that feeling like I should know who you are but can't remember.

Another day another dollar

So not a bad day over all. For those that know me and my work, you may say I was promote by being given a 'red shirt'! Not much real happened though. It was slow (this is where you say 'How slow was it?') it was so slow I looked at my watch and it was 10am, I looked an hour later and it was 10:10am! But as even slow thing go, my work day came to an end and I came right home to work here. I ran a cat5 cable to my daughters room so she can now do her 'my space' in 'her space'! It frees up the desk and made her happy. Got another long day tomorrow but couldn't sleep. So instead I'm writhing this. I'm so going to pay as I drag ass tomorrow! So how do you like this image? Inspired by some shit a buddy said to me after catching me and my wife doing it in the woods. He said he was going to 'forward the phiciatrist bills to me' and I gave him that quote. LOL got to get some sleep now I'll try to write more soon. Posted by Picasa

MY NEW BLOG!

So today's a good day. My oldest son gave me shit about approaching 40 and how his youth is so superior to my old age (Easy for a 18 year old to say!). So I took him out to the park to play Disk Golf. Usually we are evenly matched but today I spanked him with a 6 point lead! Teens everywhere beware! Us old farts still got it! Can't think of better story to start this blog with!
