Well, Today Is...
Father's Day! I had an awesome time fishing with my Mom, Dad and kids! I caught the only trout but I talked Dad into stopping at a little quarry I know of and the kids caught tons of sunfish and shiners! We had a nice picnic lunch, got ice cream and had an all around great day! Then I got home, went online and read my wife's blog. It was very thoughtful and touching! It made my whole day! Then Jessi gave me my Father's Day card from her! I have great kids! I love spending time with both of them even though I am probably more fun for Sean than I am for Jessi! Jessi is a girl and not a tom boy type girl- a real girl! I am not good with girl things. I know how to track a deer, fix a car or truck and build and put things together! I hate shopping unless it is for hunting or fishing stuff. I like going to a movie with her but she wants to go with her friends and that kind of beats the purpose of her and I going to a movie. She is also older than Sean- she will be 12 in October and she wants to spend her time with kids her age. That is fine- I was there once, too. Sean is like me. He loves to hunt and fish, loves to do anything with me and really doesn't have any friends of his own except me and Grampa! All in all, I had a GREAT day!
My Dad!
Well, you knew I wouldn't let it go without putting something in here about him! What can I say? He is my best friend! He would support me if I told him I was turning gay and joining a cult! LOL- maybe not but you get my point! I have said before on here often that I would rather deer hunt with my Dad then do anything else in this world! He was always there for me when I was a kid to take me hunting and fishing. He taught me most of what I know about hunting and fishing and most I know about life. He is a big part of the man I am today. Yes, he has flaws- who doesn't? I know without a doubt in my mind that if I broke down at 2 AM in the morning and I needed a hand or a ride that I would make one phone call to him and he would be on his way. The Tracy Lawrence song was on the radio when we were coming back from fishing and Jessi said that she hates that stupid song. It is his new song with Tim McGraw and Kenney Chesney and is about people you can count on and trust in a bind. She asked me if I liked that song and I told her I love it! She said, "why Daddy? It is stupid." I said, "because it makes me think about what I would do if I was stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere and needed someone to come help me. I would call the person sitting right next to me and I KNOW he would be there as soon as he could get there." So then Mom chimes in and says, "and you know he says the same thing about you and you would be the first one he would call, too." I thought that was a pretty cool conversation to have on Father's Day and I took that as a complement that he would call me. Of course I would be there as soon as he called! That is the kind of person I am. Well, off to chat some football and go to bed! Another six day week awaits! Later

Week In Review
So, Let's Run a...
Recap of this week! Work was very busy! I am tired just thinking about it! I got home late every night and didn't get home one night until 10PM. Help is supposedly coming next week but he is just a college kid who will take some time to get a grip of stuff and by then, it will be time for him to go back to college! They are still holding on to Bill is coming back sometime even though I know it isn't happening! So, sometime in the next two months, I will be able to take Mondays off again and then he will go back to school and things will be right back to where they are now! We get reviews in the first week of July and I expect some serious kissing of the butt! I work my ass of and yes, they do take care of me but reviews are like the one time when they say thank you and show me that I am appreciated. Tomorrow is father's day and that should be a lot of fun! My parents want Sean and I to go fishing with them and we probably will! I have worked out Monday and Wednesday so far this week and I am working out tonight and maybe tomorrow! I weighed myself on Wednesday and weighed only 174? I lost 4 pounds and wasn't even trying to lose weight! I like 176-178 and want to stay there! Not sure what happened there but I am sure I can gain back a couple of pounds on Father's Day! Colleen got her screen tent thingy so she can be outside and the bugs won't bother her. It is actually pretty cool! Jessi is officially on summer vacation and she is very excited! I went to Home Depot to get my Dad's present for Father's Day and I was paying and I hear someone say, "Daddy!" I look around and it is Jessi! She was spending the night at a friend's house and they went to Home Depot. She says to me I thought you looked familiar! To which I replied, "I should! I AM your father!" My wife got my razors! Very exciting! Well, it is when you shave your head twice a week! It is hard to shave your head with a dull razor! OK, I am off to put my body through and hour of hell! Later

Father's Day Weekend
This Weekend Is...
Father's Day weekend! I have Father's Day off and really don't know what to get my Dad! Work started out slow and got crazy at the end! Jerry and Julie are watching Sean and Mindy's house this week and I don't think we have much planned! I have to work tomorrow and Sunday is the big day! I am kind of tired and will go shower and doze off watching TV pretty soon. It is only 8 PM and I am beat! I got KFC on the way home tonight and everyone seemed to enjoy it! I told Joey I would take Bob's week on call when he is on vacation and Joey didn't protest at all. I have yard check in the morning and have to get up way too early! Well, I really don't have much else top say except Alex and I did the math and we have both gone 25 years without getting a moose permit and we have spent combined $1000 on trying to get one! How dumb are we? Later

LONG Day
Today Was a Very...
Long Day! I got home at 945PM! I worked until 545 and then I worked in my own car until 945! It didn't go that bad- I just had a lot to do! I got five calls while I was working on my own car so that is good- even though $50 for 4 hours isn't all that good a rate! After all that work, my car still does that weird thing with the brakes! That pisses me off! I said last night that tonight was the moose permit drawing and to no one's surprise, I didn't get one again. I am thinking it will never happen while the rest of Maine gets four or five permits. I am absolutely fucking beat so I am off to bed so I can get up at 6 and do it all over again! Later

What Do I Want?
Well, Sunday Is...
Father's Day and I was thinking of things that I want. Everything I want is expensive and completely out of my reach at this time and place! I want a bass boat! I always have wanted one and I want a new truck to haul it with. I want a four wheeler to ride out back of my house on and to get deer out of the woods. I want an X-Box 360 and a high def TV. I want a brand new rifle and a shotgun and a .45 pistol. I want a camp on a lake to call my own. I want surgery on my eyes so I don't need glasses or contacts anymore. I want Direct TV and NFL Sunday Ticket. I want a riding lawn mower.
So, Like I Said...
Everything I want is very expensive! The good news is I am only 37 years old and I will have a good portion of these things before I die. I am actually a pretty simple man even though this list probably doesn't look like it. I don't need any of these things- these are my dream things! My vacation is now officially set in stone- we go to Grand Lake on July 28 and stay through August 4. Should be a real good time and I need to call Dad and give him the confirmed dates! I need to tell Jerry that he needs to get a ride home tomorrow because I have to fix my truck! I need to go upstairs in 30 minutes or so and work out. I am still a little sore from Monday but I should be fine! I need to get back in the groove and this is just the week to do it. Thank you for a delicious supper tonight, Honey! Love you! Later

Quiet Time
Well, Tonight I Don't Have to...
Work out or do anything so I think I will simply veg and relax! It was slow at work this morning and then the day took a turn into the crapper! The afternoon was crazy! Road calls and rear end parts and transmission parts that I couldn't find anywhere! Wow, I hate it when there are like ten things going on, I am the only one there and I have to figure out how I will do them all without forgetting any of them! I do need to take a shower and put on some Pj's and then chill out and relax! I kicked my butt yesterday! My shoulders are sore, my forearms hurt and my back hurts. I have ratcheted my stupid work out up SO high that I don't look forward to it like I used to! I still force myself to do it and I feel good when it is over but it is very tiring and hard! I miss football! It stinks to know I will never have the football package! We don't have Direct TV and that is the only way to get it! I don't know what I want for father's day but I think my wife is scheming since she asked me what my favorite meal is! I can think of a couple of things but they are all WAY to expensive! well, off to shower and chill out! Later

One Down!
Five More to GO!
Today was Monday which means five more days to go until I get another day off! I have been a work out slacker lately! I worked out Tuesday and Friday but didn't work out on Sunday so I need to work out four days this week to make up for it! I am ready to work out tonight and get back on track! I got my desired time for the East Grand camp- we are going the first week in August! This should be good because it will be hot and people will want to swim a lot! I am looking forward to having a week of rest and relaxation! My work needs to hire some new people- soon! Donny and I are the two most hurt by losing people and we both agree that we have to get some help soon! My wife went on a long, hot walk today and the bugs drove them crazy! I wish there was some special thing that drove horse flies away! They are the worst bug in the world! They buzz and buzz around you and it really hurts when they bite you! Thursday is a day that my wife absolutely despises! Moose permits are drawn on that day and every year is the same thing! They don't call my name, I get pissed off and rant and rave that I will NEVER waste my money on such a stupid thing! Then, I get over it and do it all again next year! She LOVES it! Well, I am off to abuse my body that has been living the good life for a week or so! I should be drained and sore when I come back down here in an hour or so! Later
