Just checking in

I was going to write something about families and how interesting they can be, but I thought some might get offended so for right now I’m going to leave it in my head.
Yesterday we had rain like a July thunderstorm. I’m told that it’s going to get pretty damn cold tomorrow or [...]

Frosting Bandits

No this is not our entry into The Food Networks latest cake building expo. Nor is it an attempt to make a cake look like a shark fin or a wave. It is the result of the frosting bandits.
The wife and I went to workout last night after we got home [...]

Is it really November?

The wife and I just finished up with your dinner. Just the 2 of us and the boys (Tonks and Frodo). It was fairly quiet as it should be for only 2 people. We are heading over to a friends house for desert in about 45 minutes or so.
The weird thing [...]

Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s hard to believe that it’s already Thanksgiving. It kind of crept up on me this year. Last week the wife said “Hey it’s Thanksgiving next week.” I had no idea. Seems like it’s a bit early this year, but maybe that’s just me. The work days and the weekends for [...]

3 days in a row! It’s a miracle!

If I have counted correctly this will made day number 3 that I have posted something on here. I hope no one has a heart attack. The wife is watching Survivor and I’m bored so I thought I’d try and post something up. Not 100% sure what will end up being on [...]

Bye Bye Nokia and spewing hot water heaters!

So if any of you could read my mind or worked with me you’d know that I’ve been studying the stock market as of late. I started investing when I was fairly young. I think I took some of my high school graduation money and I put it into a mutual fund that [...]

Stressed!

I think in my last post I mentioned that I’m taking over a new project at work. Well it’s in full swing and the picture you see above is me. No I won’t be losing my hair, I’ll be adding more gray hairs to the numerous one’s that I already have. At [...]

Gonna be a rock and roll star…

NOT! But I did pick up a guitar yesterday. I’ve always wanted to learn how to play an instrument, so I got a guitar. Smart or not I don’t know. Hopefully over time I’ll be able to get half way decent at it. It’s also an effort to get away [...]
