    Fencing in the yard

    Yuck! I remember that job! I fenced in our whole back yard when we moved here and it took the whole weekend. I saved myself about two thousand dollars, so that was a good thing. I started digging holes by hand, but quickly dropped that idea and rented the auger from our local hardware store...

    School picture time

    I can't believe school just started and already it's school picture time! I'm trying to decide if I want to buy the picture on disc for $40, or get a package for $29. If I buy the disc I can print out all the pictures I want and it comes with the photo release. On the other hand am I really...

    Monsters

    We are going through the same thing here after my son's friend played some you tube video that has you stare at the screen looking at something and all of a sudden a scary picture pops up. It scared her so bad she started crying and now she won't go in the bedroom by herself. She's started...

    2nd surgery = broken streak

    I wonder how this will ultimately effect his ability to be an effective quarterback for the Colts? He just signed that huge contract...something in the area of 80 million dollars (give or take, I can't remember exactly) and I have to wonder if Indianapolis is regretting that decision right now...

    Terrorism Threat

    I haven't had the chance to read up on this, but my Mother called me and said that a credible threat has come to the attention of the FBI that involves a possible attack in New York City this weekend. Has anyone heard anything about this?

    Netflix Adds A New Restriction: Limits Customers To One Stream At A Time

    We have Netflix and my biggest gripe is the movies available for instant viewing. Every time we log in I go right to the new releases section and it seems like every movie is either some Indy film I've never heard of, or an old blockbuster circa 1990. They seem to have very few movies...

    Lunch Ideas

    Today is the first day of school and I'm already starting to stress about lunch ideas. I'm tired of sending the same old ham sandwiches. My daughter is in a peanut free classroom, so no peanut butter and jelly. Any suggestions for lunch besides sandwiches?

    Pre-season

    Sad to say I haven't been paying much attention during the preseason, but I will have to start this week as I am in a fantasy football league AND an NFL pick 'em league. The end of summer kind of snuck up on me and I can't believe the season opens this weekend. Being a Giants fan, I'd love to...

    Wax me?

    My brother is a body builder and male model. He waxes all the time. I think it's a little crazy, but agents don't want really hairy guys modeling for them, so he does it to keep the gigs coming, and because it's almost required for competitions.

    Eating and bedtime

    I usually get in a light snack before bedtime. I try to make sure it isn't heavy, but I can't help it. I love my nighttime snack while watching TV. Popcorn is my favorite.

    Low Testosterone?

    My blood work came back that my testosterone is low. I have to apply a patch to my back now to raise my levels. Maybe I'm being a total "guy" but I was really bothered by this since testosterone is what makes us, well, manly. Anyone else heard of this or suffered with this? i will say, since...

    Swimming for the last time

    It's about that time here, too...gotta close the pool! We have not swam much in the past month because you get one or two cold nights and a lot of rain, and the water gets so cold! This kids will swim, but they don't stay in very long.

    Smoking

    One of my biggest pet peeves is seeing people smoking in a car with little ones buckled in the back seat. If you want to smoke, it makes no difference to me what you do, but your children can't get away from it buckled in their car seats. Smoke when they aren't around.

    Why do people wait til 4:00??

    Sometimes it's unavoidable. As one of those higher ups at one time who used to do that to my employees, I know for me it wasn't by choice or to be inconsiderate. I used to dump international shipping items on my shipping department at the end of the day all the time because it was stuff I had...

    Playing with fire

    If it's curiosity, you can discuss fire danger and even bring him to a local Fire Department to speak with some of the guys about fire safety. If it's deeper than that, I would get him in counseling immediately.

    How long till we are done?

    I've been told girls are easier than boys, but my daughter was not easy! She was stubborn and wasn't really potty trained until she turned 4, even though she had first sat on the potty when she was two. She even started preschool in pull ups...I guess we deal with it best we can.

    Pinched nerve...Ugh!

    I have a pinched nerve in my back....man does this hurt! I have been laid up since Sunday. It looks like I will be starting physical therapy in a few days. :(

    Pass out

    You will be fine! Somehow, like Christian said, you know that she needs you and you just keep it together for her. My wife had vaginal births and they weren't gory or bloody at all. I was up by her head helping her push, so it wasn't an issue and probably won't be for you either. Good luck!

    Courageous, The Movie

    I am so looking forward to seeing the new movie from the creators of Christian based movies Fireproof and Facing Giants. It's called Courageous, and it's about 4 police officers who are excellent at their jobs but struggle with the most important role in their lives: fatherhood. The tag line...

    Apple cider

    I live near a farm that makes cider...they press the apples and as the juice runs out bits of pulp mix in and isn't filtered out...I think that is what makes the difference with cider and juice....cider is thicker and not clear. Good luck!
