Start of the new world

just another day.

2010-03-30T11:22:00.002-04:00

One birthday down two to go. The little one is now 4 and she is happy over all the toys and attention she got on her special day. Always wondered why when we were growing up there were no helmets and pads but now the kids have to be trussed up like nascar drivers.

Christmas over and kids crazy

2010-01-02T00:45:00.003-05:00

Thanks to all the people who were good to us this year but why oh why did they need to give my kids candy???? My three year old is bouncing off the walls going 100 miles an hour. The five year old is in her room having all the dolls riding her new horse. Every one is healthy and happy for now. Give it ten seconds and they will be at each other again.

Thanksgiving is over.

2009-11-26T23:58:00.002-05:00

One more day down that I will never get back. Spent most of the day keeping the kids out of the kitchen and out of moms way. After that we went to Grandma's house for the real dinner. Not the greatest in the world but better than nothing. Tomorrow I have to play driver to wife and kids for her work and hopefully get more cleaning of this floor done. I would like to have it restored by some time 2011.

Found my boat.

2009-11-24T15:11:00.004-05:00

There is a show on tv about navy cops (not going to tell you the name), where their boss is building a boat in his basement. I think I found my version of this boat it is working on my hardwood floors. It is something to do at night after work that I can unwind with. I am a DIY person to begin with so there is no real problem in me doing all the work. Ill keep everyone up with what I am doing more often now that we are some what settled.

Back up and running

2009-11-24T10:50:00.002-05:00

We just bought a house in Arkansas and got out of the north. I am looking for a job and hopefully soon will be employed again. I am cleaning hard wood floors that were covered in the 70's and have not seen the light of day since. This means that I have to get down on hands and knees and scrub with water and cleaner then wipe the floor dry.

Sick and travle

2008-11-23T14:50:00.002-05:00

Well the kids have given me a cold right before we are to go to Arkansas for thanksgiving. Travel is going to be bad and trying to keep the kids roped up so they don't wonder off. As well as keeping my wife on track and not obsessing over small stupid stuff. I was thinking do penguins get colds, or do they get hots????

Hello again

2008-11-20T21:52:00.002-05:00

I did find a new gener of music called Steam Punk which is most interesting. I did find Abney Park which is from my old home town of Seattle and Dr Steel which is funny. We are going away for a while and soon for thanksgiving back to Arkansas.

At it again

2008-11-11T23:21:00.003-05:00

After spending the day doing most of nothing, one of my days off. I am forced to think about some of the simple happy things in life. I am planning what to do with our tax return already. Most of it will go to dig us out of more debt and canning supplies. We learned the hard way, being prepared for the worst is not a kook survivalist thing it is just smart. While we were stationed in Washington the main road into the area got 20 foot of snow. That shut everything down for a month. Even the army base was called level 3 or black road condition. Which means that even if you were stupid enough to make it to post they were turning people away. The main stores in the area quickly ran out of basics. We were lucky and did not have children at that time. Lets face it being prepared is just down right smart.

shut down of trucking

2008-11-09T20:05:00.003-05:00

My best friend is in the trucking industry. The shippers are coming in to port half loaded or nearly empty. He said that he saw hundreds of ships sitting at dock that normally would be moving freight. For the first time in years he was sent away from the dock with no load. NO DELIVERY TO ANY STORE. Main stores that would be ramping up for Christmas is getting nothing in. The food delivery of produce has been cut by 20% now. This is not not not good. This is the start of the new depression. I am so scared for my children.

2008-10-10T19:38:00.002-04:00

I don't agree with everything that is on every show but I would rather be aware of what is going on rather than being blind sided. For your review please see their sight. We must find and help sites like this before more of them are forced to close their doors

Must be one of those days.

2008-10-09T21:48:00.003-04:00

Woke up with my back killing me. I guess I slept wrong. We went over to the store and got the groceries we needed for the next two weeks. Still don't know if the diet is working or not. For some reason I have been listening to a lot of jazz and blues. Stuff that people my age probably won't know. Thelonius Monk and Tom Waits. The day died down and we were at our friends house. While we were there a priest in training came over and I told him that i just did not feel right. I guess we did an impromptu confession session. I still don't feel right like a drag in my soul. Hopefully this will pass.

Sleep Pills and Beer

2008-10-08T23:25:00.002-04:00

Just back up from the basement checking on my latest creation of beer. Yes I brew my own beer. This time it is a Russian Imperial Double Chocolate Stout. This is going to be a mean beer. Already I can smell the alcohol so it will meter out at about 12 to 14 percent. Taken the days last pain pill and I am for it to calm my back and knees so I can sleep.

So no one is willing to even try guessing the name of the artist or the album my little trivia question was from. So sad no one knows.

Ill give you the album Night Hawks at the Dinner. Now who is the artist???

Life in blue

2008-10-08T00:46:00.002-04:00

As I sit here listening to old blues and jazz records, looking and taking stock of my life I have to admit things could be worse. I live in a rented house which my disability check covers. We eat pretty good, not the best but we don't go hungry. My kids are dressed in good clothes. I can buy a magazine every now and then. We are able to make basics but not every bill gets paid on time. Life could be worse. The song Little Drop Of Poison still is great and makes me think life is a bitter sweet experience. Even if it were worse I think we still could manage and hack out a life. I do think we would be doing better if we get out of Pa.

As long as a certain presidential candidate does not get elected I think we would be fine. My Candidate got the boot really quick so I have no horse in the race.

Pain, bunnies, warm beer, cold women

2008-10-07T23:11:00.002-04:00

can anyone tell me what album warm beer and cold women comes from? Then again the album, and yes it is those round big things that pop and hiss, was made even before I was born. Still it is a classic. Comes from a vary famious painting that almost everyone knows but very few know the name of the painting.

Due to the accident that got me out of the army, tonight is going to be long and painful. I took my tramadol and still hurt bad. There is a harvist mist that has settled over our little valley and is freezing while suspended in the air. Which means taking the wife and kids to their outing tomrrow is going to take more time to clean off the car.

Our bunny whos name is Genny is going haywire tonight for some reason. She is nurvous and acting scared. I personlay think there are ferral dogs out again that have come down to raid garbage cans making her nervious. If they come too close Ill have some fun with my little slingshot.

Seriously does anyone know the album or the artist? If you take the time to look it up please listen to it about three times before you make up your mind weather you like it or not.

Credit Card Processing

2008-10-07T18:37:00.003-04:00

I live in what could be the most backward place on earth. My local gas station still does not accept credit cards. We are living in a plastic card society. Between the ease of debit cards and the large amount of people who live on their credit cards it is almost suicide for a business today not to accept credit cards. merchant account is the web site that has the expertise along with the equipment you need to start processing credit cards from you customers. With this easy way of doing business and the security it provides any company would be silly not to add this to their store or place of business. Stop loosing income for your hard work get involved with merchant account you will be glad you did.

Alex Jones

2008-10-07T15:26:00.002-04:00

This is one of the shows that you listen to only if you agree or like the host. Alex is a lightning rod for many issues. If you are willing to have an open mind and check the facts of what you are listening to then you might find value. If you have your mind made up TAKE THE BLUE PILL AND GO TO SLEEP.

Lapband Decision and Guided outcome.

2008-10-06T23:07:00.005-04:00

Lap-band surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that restricts the stomach so the patient feels full faster there by cutting the amount of food and the hunger sensation. With that being said, I am about 150lbs overweight. I am hungry all the time. This surgery came to light due to a commercial that I saw on television. lap-band surgeon was the site that I found that took the time to walk me through the process and to see if this was right for me. I now have a consult with a doctor to do prime checks for this procedure. Wish me luck.

hateing birthdays and forgotten by people

2008-10-06T00:24:00.002-04:00

Last year on my birthday it was just a bust. All the people I normally hang out with were all suddenly too busy to come over. Then the kids were after the cake and really did not understand what it meant. My wife was too tied up with her Philippine stuff to really care. I am not looking forward to this year because I think it will be the same all over again. It seems that I am every ones friend when they need help but no one cares.

wonder if i disappeared would anyone notice beside no more paycheck?

Kids pets and dead fish

2008-10-05T04:39:00.004-04:00

Well once again I am here infront of my computer wondering how my two little girls twisted me arround their little fingers. Some how we went to the flea market looking for good deals on clothes and stuff and came home with bunny rabbit. They did it again. The jewish part of my heart was warmed by the fact that both of my daughters begged and cried to the lady and she dropped the price and tossed in lots of stuff to make bunny happy for them to stop crying. I did finaly get to sneek off and go fishing. Which was not bad but I think I did more drinking coffe than catching fish. The weather has trurned harsh and did it fast.

Sleep, dog, and dead fish

2008-09-21T20:30:00.002-04:00

A few days ago our clown fish died. He was the last living tenant of our fish bowl. We are packing it up and putting it away. I am thinking of starting a lizard home. The kids keep wanting a dog but i dont know if they are old enough for one. That and the fact the apartment where we live does not allow one.

Both of the girls found a color change lizard cute and he would not be that hard to keep.

It's sleeping weather again. Nice and cool during the night and not too hot during the day. I do miss these days because i work at night. oh well i can sleep during my days off.

Here we go again

2008-09-19T20:12:00.003-04:00

Well it looks like the company I work for will be tossed out of this contract soon. Our field boss just got jail time and there are not enough spots open for this company to keep me on. So my plans are comming together faster than I thought. This is a scary step but also what needed to happen. Now it is just what new job field is stable and finding one I can work.

Greenhouse

2008-09-15T03:27:00.002-04:00

Looks like I will be building a greenhouse. I was reading books at the book store looking for a value deal. I found a book about how to run a garden for all seasons. I am finding all the materials needed to build a decent green house. It will be good to have garden fresh veggies and fruit all year long.

coffe or tea

2008-09-14T02:50:00.002-04:00

During my life I drank coffe for about 12 years. Last night I had a cup of coffe and it about killed my stomach. I was sick. Now after some persuasion from my wife and her friends I am trying tea. Hopefully this will be ok.
