Monday the 30th

  • I think its been a little bit since I last blogged on here - I've just been to freaking busy to post anything on here for my hundreds of readers (I wish)
  • Well the Fourth of July holiday is near and are there going to be fireworks this year...we will see....
  • this past Saturday was jam packed with digging up two large areas of monkey grass and then going to pick up 1.374 tons of stones that are being used as edging along major portions of the yard - it is looking GREAT - thanks alot mom and dad for helping out with this project in numerous ways
  • I plan to probably cut the yard tomorrow when I get home after I finish stacking the stones around the house, I think I can make most of them three stones high at least - its gonna look awesome - I plan to also spray some of the grass that has managed to inside the flower beds with weed and grass killer
  • I'm still having some problems with the trees in the backyard - but at least not as bad as our neighbor who lost one of theirs with the random storm that hit this area yesterday evening and the wind was so strong that it simply broke the tree in half....
  • speaking of trees - as soon as my lovely wife purchases a couple of crepe myrtle trees and tells me where she wants them planted at (as long as I agree for the most part on the location) I will plant them for her. Easy as that - so go get em honey!!!
  • my shoulders hurt from all of the yard work that has been going on - my back hurts as well - also my arms....okay thats enough of me whining

fathers day weekend recap....

  • a really fun weekend all things considered
  • I got off work at noon on Friday (thats always sweet) and did a good amount of chilling out basically
  • Saturday spent some time getting ready for the big Saturday nite party that was scheduled to happen
  • Party arrived and we had a really good time, I crashed early because I had to get up early on Sunday morning to help setup at church
  • Got up early Sunday and I cannot remember the last time I was so hot - Praise the Lord I had a tshirt on underneath my golf shirt - I was soaking wet with sweat - HOT
  • the dumb battery on the van was dead so we were unable to drive it to the side of the theatre and therefore had to push all the carts on the back sidewalk and through all the theatres - much more legwork this way and much hotter as well - serving for the Lord though - so its worth it
  • We had to head home after church to prepare for Fathers Day at Jennifers parents house
  • was there for a while yesterday and had a good time while there
  • upon returning home things changed - Jennifer felt terrible out of nowhere it seemed
  • after speaking with an advice nurse they felt that she had a case of vertigo - I went and got her some dramamine and when she fell asleep she did not move all nite long - talk about a deep sleep
  • I actually slept well also last nite - what a change of pace that is for me
  • I havent talked to her yet today but I pray and hope that she is back to normal, bare minimum I hope she is at least at 90% of normal with only residual effects remaining.
  • Got some awesome oil changing ramps from the kiddos for Fathers Day
  • Jennifer is going to get me a boot tree as well - anybody know what one of those is???
  • My brother called me yesterday on my cell - that was awesome - I hope we will be able to see him at the beach vacation next month somehow - with current gas prices it might be a problem though - hoping for the best though
  • Was this a LONG blog or what....(sure am thankful for the spellcheck on here)

  • we desperately need some rainfall around here
  • am looking forward to going out tonite with the folks and friends
  • looking forward to guys nite out this Friday nite
  • fathers day is this Sunday
  • looking forward to the BIG party on Saturday nite as well
  • I think its going to be a busy weekend
  • Also help setup this Sunday morning - that means alarm clock set for 5 AM - better have some coffee ready
  • ditto the coffee for Friday morning and driving to the airport - leaving around 6 likely

weekend wrap up

  • its a new month now (actually it started yesterday) and thats always a good thing
  • busy weekend but alot of fun as well
  • our whole family along with a few friends went to Medieval Times on Saturday nite, that was a pretty cool experience. They had a live falcon which did some free flying around the arena. Several horses and jousting along with weapon fighting. Turns out our knight, the yellow knight won the battle that nite. GO YELLOW!!!!
  • I cut the grass this weekend, I will likely raise the mower up a notch the next time I cut it b/c its starting to get a little brown when cut at this height.
  • we got a little bit of rain over the weekend, of course the drought marches on around here
  • Looks like our church is soon going to start at the second location somewhere really near our area of town. I reckon at the moment though that we will continue to do the 9 o'clock service up at the theatre
  • speaking of theatres we took JCO to see speed racer yesterday - do not waste your time or money on this one - dont even bother once its out on video for rental - I woulda had a better time watching some paint dry I think than sitting through that film. A little strange on top of all of that. Enough of that for now.
  • Im now parking across the street here, because the parking location I was using is now closed down and we are all parking across the street at what they call the TownPark location. I think I am going to walk to my car in the afternoon when the day is over because the shuttle makes so many stops between here and there I can likely beat it simply by walking over, Im sure the exercise aint gonna hurt me any either.
