A little longer

About a year and a half ago we signed a contract for satellite television. It seemed like something we should do because we have just been given one of those great tv stands and a free television. For 5 years prior we did not have television. My parents decided to give us a television in hope that we would watch more of it. You have to understand that they value television very much and it is their main source of entertainment. I have to say I have not enjoyed satellite nearly as much as I had hoped. In just about one more month we will be able to cancel our programming without any fees. I cannot wait and I know my children will be better off with less of the awful programming we are currently receiving.


Who is sneaking them?

My children are home schooled. I know that for many people this automatically invokes a certain impression of what my kids are like. Typically my children are pretty low key and easily amused. They love being on the go and seeing the world around them. A simple drive in the car is a good time. Tonight they are wilder than I have ever seen them. My gut tells me that they found the 5 pound bag of chocolate chips that are hidden in the freezer. We dole these out as treats instead of candy or other sweets. My wife swears that today was chocolate free day but I just looked and the bag of chips looks really low. Given that our 3 year old has figured out how to stack stuff to reach what he wants I now have a theory as to how the chocolate supply is being depleted.


A good woman.

From the tone of my last post you might get the wrong impression of what I think of my wife. My wife is an amazing woman and I adore her. The idea that she has this do-it-yourself mentality is actually something I admire. I love that she is always trying to learn new things even though I don’t always share her enthusiasm. I like that she doesn’t have high expectations of the world and is happy with simple things. I know that she is never waiting for me to find the perfect personalized gift or buy her the newest trendy item. She is happy with simple things in life and that is admirable. I love knowing that I don’t have to provide for a certain type of lifestyle. You have to love a woman who asks for things like canning jars and cheese rennet in lieu of diamonds and gold.


Cheese?

My wife is in the mindset that we need to learn to be self-sufficient. She has so many projects going that I can’t keep them all straight. As I type she is trying to make homemade cheese for the first time. I am not convinced this is all going to pan out but I am biting my lip. My inclination is to just go to the store to buy cheese. She is convinced that making cheese will be easier, cheaper, and healthier. So far I cannot see where it is any cheaper given what the supplies thus far have cost us. I am hoping that after the initial investment things will be cheaper and that she is able to obtain her goals. At this moment all I see is a big pot of hot milk.


Dreaming of a run.

I am now in the final days until I am able to have this cast removed from my leg. It is something I think I am looking forward to with the same level of anticipation that I had for the birth of my children. It will feel so good to be able to walk on two feet again. I know I won’t be able to hit the fitness equipment right off the bat but it doesn’t stop me from dreaming. I would so very much love to be able to take a nice long run or for that matter even a leisurely stroll. You just don’t know how annoying it is to not have full use of your body until it happens. I really feel for anyone who faces lifelong struggles with mobility after my brief encounter with the limits of a broken leg.


Weekend :)

This has been one very long week and I couldn’t be happier that the weekend is finally here. It seemed like every person that called me had some sort of attitude issue. I don’t know what is going around but I really hope everyone either gets over themselves or remembers to take their mood stabilizers. I had people calling to complain about things that had absolutely nothing with the role I am to play in their lives. I think one woman actually somehow felt my office was behind the fact that she lost her support payments. We have nothing to do with anything even slightly related to that type of thing. I am ready to just sit on the couch and stare blindly forward for the next few hours.


Doesn’t know Jack about camping.

So I read that Jack Nicholson says he wants to get away from it all and take the rest of his life off from acting to get himself in better shape and get rid of his “man boobs” which are bigger than the boobs othe women he is being photographed with. A good thought but I am still curious about what that entails should he choose to go camping what would Jack do if his RV broke, where would he take it to get Link To Copy: rv repair work done. Would he take a boat like Tiger Woods did to get away from the media and the world in general. How about doing what George Clooney and Johnny Depp did and move to Italy or France where everyone seems to be famous which means no one is famous when you really think about it. This is beginning to sound like a Dr. Seuse book.


WTH=Bill Kaulitz

I was surfing the web an came across something that I can honestly say epitomizes the acronym WTH. SO can someone please explain to me why an eleven year old boy can sing “It’s raining men”, and quite badly I might say, and be cheered. Oh wait!!!! I just realized that the audience is full of 50 year old men and almost half of them are masturbating while this kids is singing. The saddest part isn’t even that, it is how this kid looks now that is scary. The interesting part of this is that there are thousands of girls in Germany who will fight to the death to say that, Bill Kaulitz is not gay. Well if he is not he is on his way there.
