Another Monday

I had to work very early yesterday, I was exhausted by the time I got home. I took a quick 15min power nap and then decided to attack the house.

The wind as seemed to have shift and I think the construction site is done destroying the wetlands and hurricane barrior. So the dirt hasn’t been coming in as bad. So we started to wipe everything down. The towels came away black. Took me forever to mop, had to change the water a few times and I now need a new mop. But it was nice to have floors without that layer of dirt. =)

I have to work tonight……..joy, joy………..lol I was going to ride my bike in, but Harold has a lot of work to do and I know he’ll be tied up with that. So he won’t be able to meet me for the ride home.

I know that I had more that I wanted to write, but for the life of me I can’t remember it………lol Oh, well time for me to get ready for work anyway.

Farm boy

Since his family lives on a farm, his mother asks if he has done his chores.” Not yet,” said the little boy. His mother tells him no breakfast until he does his chores. Well, he’s a little pissed, so he goes to feed the chickens, and he kicks a chicken.

He goes to feed the cows, and he kicks a cow.

He goes to feed the pigs, and he kicks a pig.

He goes back in for breakfast and his mother gives him a bowl of dry cereal.

“How come I don’t get any eggs and bacon? Why don’t I have any milk in my cereal?” he asks.

“Well,” his mother says, “I saw you kick a chicken, so you don’t get any eggs for a week. I saw you kick the pig, so you don’t get any bacon for a week either. I also saw you kick the cow, so for a week you aren’t getting any milk.”

Just then, his father comes down for breakfast and kicks the cat halfway across the kitchen.

The little boy looks up at his mother with a smile, and says Are you going to tell him, or should I?”

Saturday morning I got up early, put on my long johns, dressed quietly, made my lunch, grabbed the dog, slipped quietly into the garage to hook the boat up to the truck, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour.

There was snow mixed with the rain and the wind was blowing 50 mph. I pulled back into the garage, turned on the radio, and discovered that the weather would be bad throughout the day.

I went back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. There I cuddled up to my wife’s back, now with a different anticipation, and whispered, “The weather out there is terrible.”

She sleepily replied, “Can you believe my stupid husband is out fishing in that shit.”

Beautiful Day

I still haven’t done my letter writing that I need to do……….and didn’t touch the work schedule, like I needed to. =( But I’ve been taking some “me” time here by doing some reading. Granted I’m actually rereading some Harry Potter books, but I think I’m just so impatient for the next book that I keep looking for things that I missed. I need to start reading all the other books that I haven’t read yet………..grin

Downloaded music for the first time. Way too many folks to choose from and I barely scratched the surface. I think I got nearly all the Yo Yo-Ma that there was. =)

We finally got some dates for when my folks and the kids are coming down! Now we can start planning the rest of our summer and their visit. Since I work out side of the house, Harold will have them about 70% of the time. Good thing we have a pool and they love to swim. =) Mom & Dad will drive them down, visit for a little while at the end of May and I’ll fly the kids back about the 2nd week of July.

As Harold posted, due to constuction not that far from us, the house has a continous layer of dirt. =( I keep wiping things down, my floors don’t looked liked I mopped them and my feet can’t seem to stay clean…..yuck! We don’t want to close the windows until it gets too hot, since air condition get old and we will be having it on soon enough. So for now we suffer. =(

I laid out briefly today. Didn’t think I got much sun, but I was mistaken…….lol My back is red and the back of my thighs are tender. I got some on the front, but no where the amount that I got on the back. That was cuz I was reading while laying on my stomach and when I laid on my back, I was just way too restless.

Harold will be taking in the truck tomorrow to get 2 new tires & a much needed alignment and outside of oil changes, hopefully that will be it for a long while. =)

Time for me to hit the hay, have to work early tomorrow.

ps……….yup, Harold has been post happy………grin

I’m being watched…

While relaxing in the backyard I had a feeling I was being watched and sure enough I had this beast watching me… watching my every move… studying me… planning an attack… I could read it in its eyes… it wants me dead… I must take action!
