It's Been a While

So I have been lazy!!! Time has really been flying.We have been busy with the grand kids(baseball,socccar,and softball).
You know, me and the wife are a soft touch for the g-kids.

The last few weeks have been fun,with the kids and our friends.
We love this time of year.The weather is great--for the first time that I can remember,we have even had a proper spring.Spring in Texas is  about two hours long.This year it has been 3 weeks and just now begain to get hot.( except for the fact I have to mow every 5 days,it would be great).

We are planning a trip to Lake Powell, in Arizona,In July,for a week.We will be on a house boat ,with my brother and his wife along with my sister and her boy friend.

If they don't kill me,it will be fun.

Update---The weight loss is still going well.Slow,but steady.Down 63bs.Just 26 more to go!Still trying to go to the gym three times a week.The last three months I have lost 15lbs.My numbers are still comming down.Sondi may have to put up with me a few more years.

We dodged a bullet

Yesterday was a bitch around here! We were lucky that our area was spared any damage.The people to the east and south of us were not so lucky.As many of you have heard, we had a round of storms.Twelve confirmed funnels, on the ground.The storm area was two counties wide.Only 12 people injured and no deaths reported yet.
We only had heavy rain and light hail at our house.

I admire all of the people that all ways show up, out of no were, to help.People appear with food,water,and strong backs .Anything to help.

One of the groups that cities have,is the CERT.(Commuty Respone Team).This training most cities do through the Fire Dept.Men and women give their time to help,for storm reponce,light serch,and damage assement.Their main job is to give firemen time to do their main job,help resuce and fight fires.

My hat is off to them and all voulenters!!!!!!!

Springtime in Texas

The spring in Texas means wild flowers.The state flower of Texas is the bluebonnet.Some of the most colorful flowers that I know.They grow wild on the side of most roads.I needed to share this with my out of state friends.

Spring time

I love the mid parts of the year.Spring and Fall.
I love the fact that it ain't to damn hot .Call me a wuss,I don't care.The cold doesn't bother me as much as the heat.Being a meat cutter,I am in the cold most of the time.Now I don't like to freeze either.
I know, you can't have it both ways.
This time of the year makes me wish I still had a motorcycle.It has seen 30 yrs.,bu the urge is still there.I rode for 10yrs.and loved it,but things had to change and the bike went.We rode with a touring club for years and loved it.We met some of our best friends there.
It is hard to believe Nene was a biker bitch,but it was true.I always thought she was hot on a bike!
She says I am to damn old to ride anymore---wrong,but the Soul does have air and heat.
As I have said " I hate yard work",this has not changed.
As most of you know I have been working to lose weight,yard work is not as much fun as going to the gym.The weight lose is going slow,but it is going.63lbs in 3 months.

Combo

In school,we were taught, to go to the bathroom.That you could raise your hand,#1 or #2.
I wonder if have to go #1 and#2 is that called a #3 combo?

That time of year again.

OMG-
It's that time of year--Yard work!  Shit
I have never been one to love yard work.Now I am not lazy,but I have never liked to work in the yard.
The first week of March and yard work!!!
In Texas, you are lucky to get 2 months free from the damn yard.
Yard work in December is a bitch.
Now I have been going to the gym three times a week,while working 7 days a week.
You wonder why I dislike it so much.If ,I was not so cheap, I would hire someone to do this for me,but I am a cheap son of a bitch.
The weather last year was so bad,I was afraid for my health.
Not to mention,every time I farted,I burned a hole in my shorts.Nothing worse than flames shoot'n out your ass!
