Life

Today is a bit somber, maybe I'm thinking? maybe I'm tired? or maybe I just have that buzz feel and not much emotion at the moment.

I want to be juiced, I want to feel the pressures I put on myself, and it is just not there. I should feel the pressure with work, kids, retirement, marriage but I'm just with drawn at the moment.

I have tons of ideas but can't seem to stop the train long enough to work on any of them.

This is bothersome

Doing the Curly Shuffel

I take my girls (My daughter and a friend) to Pom Practice everymoring at 6:45 I leave and we arrive at 6:58, just like a conductor on a train, I run a tight shift!

But if you really want to be scared and live on the edge is to drop them off, and try to leave out of the parking lot making a left turn, as ALL these LATE Pom girls or parents are driving like a NASCAR driver trying to get into the parking lot before the, you are late sign comes out!

Wow I can tell you, you take your life into your own hands!

Made it again today, but there was a second that I was not sure if I was going to be able to keep my front bumper!!!

The Boys birthday

We went to his families house for dinner and met the whole family!

Thank God I'm a social being as I might of hid in the corner.

It was nice, and I got to see a bigger opinion of my thoughts! (try to figure what I just said???)

It is a nice group of people.

Meanings to words?

Where did we come up with certain words.

Dead weight, meaning it is heavier than if it was moving.
Hmm, You stabb them and I'll slab them, is this the person who came up with Dead Weight?

Dead Head, meaning the end of the road for a train.
I can't even think how this one came into effect?

Grateful Dead, I know it is a band
But lets go ask the dead people and see how grateful they are?

Grapefruit, I though a grape we made wine out of, or it was natures snack!
Not this huge piece of citrus?

Four, we yell this when we hit a ball towards people. Why Four, or is it For!
How did a number become, save your ass I just hit into you? and if you are going to say a number why not use TWO? Four has more fanitics and you can yell TWO louder?

Things for you to think about during the day

Cage Fighting

I went this weekend to my first Cage Fight!

It makes me wonder if the Romans went to the Collisium so they can see a Gladiator fight? As these men would hit, and street fight, but the audiance would yell and scream the names of the fighter.

In Roman times the women bared themselves to the Gladiator, in Cage Fighting, nothing is bared, but the dress is very short or leaves little to the imagination, other than trying to get a peek.

Tatto's and T-shirts we also part of the experience, and the night was capped off with a fight in the crowd!

I'm sure other than a few people who had Comp tickets, that most wardrobes were purchased at Wal-mart as this seamed where the crowd was headed.

And Beer and lots more Beer!

I'm not saying I will never go again, as the people watch was very good, and the fights were not horriable. But to see two humans being put in a six sided ring, to beat the living daylights out of each other is a take in moment, and the wonder I have is why?

Boxing is a sport and there is talent which goes with this. Wrestling is also a talent, as well as the martial arts. But this was back street, bar fighting, but the one thing I thought was amuzing was before each round started the tapping of hands to wish your opponet good luck, and when the bell rang at the end of each round, the person who was on top, ussally helped the guy on bottom up!

Go figure???

The feel of pure frustration!

When you are not inspired they tell you to go get inspired. When you don't feel like you have achieved something they tell you to set higher goals to reach. And when they say you have no one to blame but yourself, is this true?

A steady pace in a direction is suppose to win the race, but when you feel like the road you are running might be in the wrong direction. When do you stop and turn around, and if you do stop to reconsider does time pass you by and maybe you were on the correct road it was just dim at this point.

How do you know?, and where do you start?

Do you start with yourself, meaning lose weight, and work on the internal self?
Do you start with your job, and quit and go look for something else? or do you look for a job while you are employeed and now you are doing the same thing, but at a different company. Is this what you want?
Or do you just don't do anything and this is the best it is going to get?

I don't think so, but I don't know how to fix what ever is wrong

Respect and Attitude

I teach in my home the two important items which everyone in the world needs to work on daily, which is RESPECT and ATTITUDE!

But what happens when someone in your family, but is close to your family does not believe in this same theroy?

Do you say they are not welcome? Do you try to change them? or do you just state your belief system towards them and hope they will learn?

This is my next challenge, as it isn't every year you get to start over, but the oldest one gets this chance, and it is her place to step out and show this Respect and Attitude as the back seat child will watch and learn.

Golf, Aida, and CLEAN THAT ROOM!

What a weekend, it started with a baseball game, you know the game I have to take my daughter to so she can see the BOY play first base. He played well, dropped his elbow, but who will listen to me??, and did an all arm swing, but he made contact dirctly to the 2nd baseman and was out. Then there was a second game, where he did not play, but I got to watch the game anyway as I'm a good father and like sitting under trees on the ground. (Hey it was baseball wasn't it??)

Then it was Farmers Market, and home to Clean rooms where the youngest hides things under her bed and says it is clean, if she worked as hard at cleaning as she does at hiding it would be very clean.

Sunday was Aida where they don't belive in reincarnation at a Christian school

Life is good, but my butt is tired today

Pom at its best

It is Pom at its best, Yesterday was the big tryout, the big scary moment.

This morning it was pins and needles and hoping and saying false prayers of things you will give up is she makes it!!!

I almost ordered myself a drink at the bar I was having lunch at when I heard the good news.

She made it, the stress, the strain and all that goes into Tryouts are over!

The world still turns!

(now I still have to worry about that damn boy!)

Pom

This week in my life we have POM TRY OUTS!!!!

POM tryouts is everything in the house, POM keeps us focused on school, Pom keeps us with the right set of friends, POM keeps us in shape, etc, etc, etc.

So to say the stress level is low in the house, would be a poorly spoken.

I will keep you informed how we do as it is a family issue, but we now know our POM routien it is now the Hip Hop we are working on tonight.

Life goes on!!!

It still might work?????

A couple of weeks ago I purchased one of those toppsy turvey tomato plants where you plant the tomato plant upside down.

Well plant number ONE is DEAD!

It might be that I over fertilized it? it might of froze? a Bird might of eaten it? I just don't know, except the plant is dead.

This upcoming weekend I will buy another plant and put in there. but as Mr. Barnum said "A sucker is born every minute!"

Good Friday

It is good friday and we are working again! Out of the 27+ years of working in the graphics industry we don't take Good Friday! Everyone else does, but we don't?

The phones will not ring unless it is a client calling us from home. It is always been that way!

Now I know what it was like in the time of Moses when he took the Children of Isral out of Egypt!

The Children were slaves and the Egyptions got to stay home and play as the others work!

Well I better start making my bricks as I have straw today!!!
