Got tips or idea's share them by sending me an e-mail to Kevin(at)akaawol.com. well good night. c-ya

No new home...

So early last week I learned I learned that we did not qualify for a loan. This might have cause me to go in to a depressed, but lucky for me last Tuesday the new release of 'Star Wars Lego II' came out! I don't commonly buy games the day they come out but this was special. My son and myself loved the first one and well... I guess I rely wanted to be sure to get it. So all free time has been working to deal with living in this tin can and playing X Box. If any reader has figured out how to find a leaking pipe in the underside of a trailer e-mail me to tell me how you did it. I cut a hole in the floor where it seemed to be, and there isn't even a pipe there! go figure, well got to work in the AM so I got to get some sleep. So peace and play on!

Keepsake video

Keepsake Video is a link I'd like to share with my readers. This is a company started by a man who much like my self has a need to do something productive rather than nothing at all. You see he retired and found that making memorable videos of your loved ones is a way to keep active for him self and providing a much need service to people. Check out his web site, get the service, you'll be glad you did.

9-11-2006

It's 5 years after the 9-11 tragedy that hit New York and Washington. I guess most Americans are taking time to reflect on what they were doing that day and how mush has changed in the last five years. I guess I'm no different. I see how my kids have grown, how politics have changed, how or civil liberty's have been challenged. There has been so much that has changed and the there is so that has stayed the same. We still have to work and go on with life just as we did before. So do I have any profound words to share with my readers? Not really just hug the ones you love and hope you have found comfort on this day 5 years after the horrible events.

Two days in a row!

I've got the day off again and can hardly stand it! It's not like I'm really missing work or anything but don't know what to do with myself. I'm going to swing by my moms to help her with computer shit and drop my kids off. Funny I was just talking to my wife about not seeing our grandchild and my mom gets ahold of me to take mine. This world can be funny like that. Well rather than sitting around writing my life story I think I should get some shit done.

My day off

Finale a day off. I tried to sleep in but the phone kept ringing and I just couldn't get back to sleep. My son's first day was today and I was there to see him off the school bus. He seemed to be surprised to find me home and was so excited he was running to get of the bus. We decided to go to the park and ride bikes and my wife went off to work only to be sent back home. SO.... The whole gang went and enjoyed a beautiful afternoon in the sun. My daughter did her homework while my wife worked on a sudoku puzzle. Me and the boy rode our bikes for a ways and I wish I could describe the wonderful sound it is for a father to hear his sons outburst of joy as he went down the hill at the fastest speed he has ever done! You could just feel his excitement! After the park we came home and discovered a message from our realtor. We (the wife and myself) were both excited and scared, tried to call but the agent was not available (figures! We can hardly stand the suspense) checked my e-mail and found that the agent wanted to say; the representative from the bank had just returned from a vacation and that we may get some new in the next few days. Not good news, but then again it wasn't bad news either.
There is a full moon out the night, strange things a bound to happen.
So thought I'd like to say for those family and friends that are reading this : I love the fact I get to tell the story once. Love you guys but it's hard to keep everyone up to date with house hunting and kids going to school and stuff. It's nice to think this blog may help to not have to keep answering the same questions again and again.
Love to all

Labor day 2006

So it's labor day and I have to work! It's like some one in upper management forget what this holiday is about. Perhaps they see the potential for profits rather than celebrating the essence of what this is about. Then again I'd bet the same upper management actual has the day off. Oh well at least I get hours in for my next check. So I get to work and try to take my mind off weather I get the house.

The bid is in

Taking advantage of my day off I set up a viewing of the house me and the wife had looked at. We got a new agent that could explain what buying options we had and well.... We put a bid in. This being a holiday weekend means we will have to wait a few before we know what if it's ours but I have to say I feel good about this one and am very excited!

Just another day for AWOL

Worked hard and come home tired. Kids and wife wanted my attention so I stay awake. Then the wife runs off with her girlfriend and leaves me home with the kids. So I checked up on my mom and she is depressed. My mother is a widow who is feeling very alone and has perused ways to meet people but with no real luck. I think she is taking it to personally. She has even believed that perhaps she's getting to old to find a good catch. So if any of my readers have some good advice on what I can share with her please e-mail me. (by the way my mom's pic is in my previous post, not a bad looking broad eh?)
