Wait 5 Minutes, the weather will change…

Back to normal? Figures… Halloween night is supposed to be below freezing. :banghead:

Bestest Buddy

Cathy just left. *sniff* I had the most awesomest weekend with my bestest buddy. Hehe. (Don’t harsh on my grammar here, I’m beyond tired!)
Eighteen years we’ve been friends… and in all those years we figured out that we’ve had ONE major argument. Sure we’ve disagreed from time to time but have never *really* [...]

It’s hot

Why is it so hot in October?!?!?!
If I hadn’t busted by hump getting a wood box built, then rebuilt, and bought a cord and a half of wood and stacked it all neatly in it’s waterproof container then we’d be sitting in a 3 foot blizzard right now.

Great Weekend

It was a nice weekend in stark contrast to the marathon of overtime from last weekend.
Kevin spent the weekend in the mountains with his Grandpa Bob and various uncles and cousins, while Melissa spent a quality “Girls Weekend” with Grandma Carolyn.
Little Jack’s soccer team beat the stuffing out of their adversaries in a game that [...]

Cody…

In the car on the way home:
Cody: Jackson!
Jack: It’s DADDY!
Cody: Jacksoooon!
Jack: Cody, call me DADDY!
Cody: Da…JACKSON!
Jack: It’s Daddy honey…
(this went on a few minutes… with us giggling)
Cody: Daddy!
Jack: Yes Cody?
Cody: I just wanna eat.
Tracie: Are you hungry Cody?’
Cody: No mom.. I just wanna EAT!
Cody: Jackson!
Jack: It’s Daddy….
Cody: Daddy!
(I giggle)
Jack: Yes Cody?
Cody: I just wanna eat [...]
