    Team workers?

    I'm more of a "lone ranger" - I can work on a team but I like to work alone better. I feel that teams waste a lot of time and when I work alone I get the job done faster.

    It's right around the corner

    Wow, great plans guys! We are not really doing anything wonderful. I'm thinking dinner and maybe a movie. Money is tight right now so there are no resorts in my future.

    Farkle Frenzy

    My son got this game for Christmas - Farkle Frenzy. It's a blast! I had to learn the rules but now that I have, I have mastered the game. Anyone a Farkle fan?

    Snow day!

    We finally have snow and today school was cancelled. I took a snow day/sick day from work. My son and I have been outside building a fort and making snowballs. I think we will sled tomorrow! I love snow/sick days!

    Surprises for wildcard weekend?

    I am surprised that Houston beat the Bengals yesterday. Houston was pretty banged up so I thought they would lose. First time Houston Texans have made it into the Playoffs. I figured the Saints would win against the Lions. I was cheering for the Lions though. I can't believe the beating...

    Gyms vs. Home Workouts

    I would love to have a big gym at home! We have a lot of workout equipment and weights too. I would rather work out at home - much cheaper. I don't mind going to the gym with my son though.

    Army?

    No Army or any branch of military for me here. My brother was in the Army for 20+ years. Several of my Uncles went to the Vietnam war, my dad did not. I really hope my son does not decide to join the Army.

    spending $ you do not have

    It's just the way it is these days. Buy what you want, pay with plastic and then worry about how you will pay for it later. I see it all the time too and it makes me sick. Boy is right on with this one. It's the American way - our Government even does it.

    Child lock!

    I just got a new car and somehow I put the child lock on in the backseat. Only 1 side is on child lock and I can't figure out how to get it off. I've read the manual and everything. Any tips?

    Best gift ever

    My step-son told me on Christmas morning that I was the best dad he could ever ask for. I was so touched that I teared up. His biological dad is still in his life but does not do much with him. I've told my stepson that he did not have to call me dad - he could call me Phil but he now calls me...

    The Help

    I watched this movie last night. I have to say that I am glad I watched the whole movie - it ended well. I was getting pretty mad in the beginning though. My wife read the book and was like - calm down it gets better. I swore if they said the N word one more time I was going to put my foot...

    Auction hunters

    I love this show! Auction hunters - anyone else watch it? I like that they actually go and sell the items that they win. They don't just say it's worth this but not sell it. Watching the show makes me want to become an Auction Hunter!

    Seriously? Sale or not we did not need it

    Same thing here and it drives me crazy too! Why do they think they need more just because it's only a buck a roll? At least your wife cleaned out some old, mine did not she added to it.

    Teaching honesty

    You show them - I'm a big believer in leading by example. I am honest and therefore my son sees that I'm honest. You also tell them that white lies are lies and that means they are no good.

    Keeping your hair long

    I've never had long hair, I don't like the way I look with it. I doubt highly that short hair and sexual frustration go hand in hand. Where did you read that?
