Let Them Roll

Back to the grind after a quiet weekend. The highlight was the Sweet Heart Dinner at church on Saturday night. It was nice and more than enough food. Bowling was mixed as the kids went 3-1 and the night crew lost. That should drop us back to 4th again after a brief stay at #2. I saw a couple of great movies this weekend on TV (Man of the Year, Powder, We are Soldiers). But I still need to go and see Cloverfield at the cinema. Guess I will have to go alone.

Albuquerque is now booked and all that is left is to wait these last 4 weeks. The cruise is booked so the dreaming can begin.

Wild Mom is finishing her visit with Gung Ho J. It is off to Camp Geiger and the next phase of her training. Some birdie told me that her brother is heading for the Navy ... Good judgment, poor choice. We do wish him the best of luck.

#1 is dealing with the snow and cold, such is life in Cold Country. Perhaps he will be more open to a visit to the warm state of Virginia soon.

#2 continues to work and get ready for work the rest of the time. The shorter drive to the store is nice since his car uses less gas because of the shorter drive. It is fun watching him when he leaves trash laying around after he is done using it. No one to blame ... it is easy to find the culprit when it involves pizza pockets or soda's.

Lil Princess, what can you say? She is trying her best to wrap me around her finger but not having that much luck. She almost made it up to a sitting position Saturday and on Sunday managed to crawl a few steps. Nothing is safe once she gets the hang of things.

Punk was his usual self. It is amazing how good he is getting with the Leapster. One amusing thought is he also has found some of those games that cheat. Just like #1 did. It is also fun watching him watch popcorn in the microwave. I don't know who is popping more ... him or the corn.

It is fun seeing the Redskins continue their losing ways as they choose a new head coach.

Baseball is just a short time away. Once again the Nationals will attempt to have a winning season. Funny thing is they will have a new stadium but there will be no where to park unless you pawn your first born to pay for it.

Elections? I am still waiting for 2 good candidates to show up. It seems this year will be the "pick of the lesser evil." Huckabee is now starting to whine as he calls foul at every chance he gets. Please lose graciously ... and quit using the poor Christian card.
