Feeling Better

I Feel Better...
After my nice, two day weekend! I hate to think I have to go back to work tomorrow but oh well! I enjoyed having a normal weekend off with my wife and kids! I did manage to get my trash to the dump and build a make shift bird feeder for my wife! We had 30 turkeys on our lawn yesterday which got me thinking about turkey hunting which made me realize spring is coming slowly but surely which made me smile! This winter has seemed like it has been eight months long! Snow, cold and ice then more and more of each one! I am ready for nice weather, fishing and turkey hunting! Sean will be six next month so four more turkey seasons and he will finally be able to go hunting with me! My wife went to the gym like six hours ago so she should be home by 8 PM I am guessing! Well, off to do something until she gets home- got no real plan on that one! Night

Sick

Yesterday...
I felt like crap! I had the chills, then I was hot and I just felt aweful! I worked all day then I came home and went to bed at 730PM. I woke up at 6 AM and realized I am not going to work! I felt as bad as I did yesterday! I don't call in sick so if I did- I AM sick! I don't plan on doing much today except resting and taking it easy to see if I can get over this! This has to be the flu because I can usually handle a cold pretty easily but this is completely kicking my ass! My wife also has it and she seems to be a little better off than I am! I think I am going to go take a nap and see if I can beat this stupid bug! Later

Feeling Crappy

Work Was OK...
I guess! I got home and had a kick ass supper of burgers with bacon and mushrooms! Then I realized my wife is 100% right about Rhapsody! Then I started feeling crappy again! I can't stay out of the bathroom now and I feel all cold and achy again! I can't be sick! Al and Todd are gone tomorrow so I HAVE to be there! No way around it! My wife is coming in here in a few minutes to watch TV so I will cut this short and say Night! I still need confirmations on her birthday party so please let me know! Later

Finally A Better Day

Today Seemed Better...
At work! It wasn't mind blowingly busy and I was able to keep up with it! I feel better tonight than I have all week and I think the rest of the week should be OK. Favre is still retired and I am off to work out! Then, settle in for Survivor and Lost! Sounds like a nice quiet weekend to me! I watched videos of US soldiers shooting dogs in Iraq. Seemed kind of cruel to me but I am not over there risking my life either! I could think of several justifiable reasons to shoot a dog and the video really doesn't show anything other than the dogs getting shot. If they did it just for fun, I think it is cruel and should be punished! Well, off to do something creative! Night! Oh, before I forget- tonight is the anniversary of me asking my wife out! Eighteen years ago today I asked Colleen to go out with me! Pretty special day in my book! OK, now night!

Today Is Christmas!

The Evil Wizard Has Finally...
Been defeated! "What the hell are you talking about, Rick you complete lunatic?" Is what you are thinking right now! I know, I am a lunatic! BUT Favre retired TODAY! No more torment for my beloved Vikings at the hands of #4! The Vikings have had a great free agency and look set to battle the Pack for the NFC North now! Maybe I will get a tattoo on my ass that say, "Good Riddance #4!" LOL- probably not! How about a Packers helmet on my right ass cheek so I sit on the Packer's logo every time I sit down? I am so stoked that he is gone! Hey, he was great- he killed my team time and time again! I won't shed any tears that he isn't there anymore! No more gushing tears and kissing his ass every time he makes a crazy throw that gets returned for a TD or hucks it as far as he can and someone runs under and goes for six! The Pack are DEAD now! He was the Pack and he is gone! Ryan Grant is serviceable but lets see how he runs without #4 under center! The star of the NFC North is AD now and will be for ten years! Everyonoe welcome the NEW NFC North Champs! The Minnesota Vikings! I am going to enjoy the next eight years! Bon Voyage, Favre! I won't miss you! Night

%@*! Around!

What a Train Wreck of a Day!
Ty is still in Florida, Al was at camp all morning and Todd was in Auburn all day. Stick that with one of the biggest, most fucked up days I have EVER seen at work and I know one thing! I am TIRED! The only good thing I can say is that the day went by very fast! Other than that, not much good happened at all! Top the day off with AJ ICQing me and telling me he just gave his two week notice! Honestly, I thought I could calm him down and get him to change his mind but I did talk to him and I honestly don't think he is going to! He is frustrated and Auburn is NOTHING like working in Bangor! Today drained me! By 1 PM I was wiped out! The only good thing is I am not on call after that train wreck of a day! My wife made chicken and rice-a-roni and that made the day start to turn around. Then, I played some video games, broke the inernet and got the kids tucked in. Today is my day off from working out and that is good and bad! I could have used taking my aggression out on my weights! I weighed myself Sunday and weigh 186 pounds! THAT is where I want to be! I like this weight and feel good! Well, I think I am going to play a game of Madden or hockey and veg for a little bit before bed! Night

Lazy Day?

Maybe!
Maybe not! I have to go over to Dad's and help him shovel off his roof! I also need to plan something nice for their anniversary which was yesterday! My parents have been married for 39 years! Next year will be 40 and I need to come up with something HUGE for that one! I will get my wife on it and she will come up with some ideas that will blow my mind! She is a gift giving guro! She knows people and comes up with ideas that they wouldn't think of themselves and she is NEVER wrong! My thoughts on a present are a trip somewhere, maybe a nice dinner like Marty's party or a big get together with friends and family! I am sure my wife will have better stuff than that! If you could make a job out of buying gifts for people, she could command her own price! Today is the day after the big storm! I am glad I am not working! I do have to work tomorrow though which sucks! My helper got stuck in Florida because of the storm and can't fly back until Tuesday! I had a feeling this was going to happen! I have it worked out to get my car fixed finally! Ray said he would do it for $250 and I will stay and help him and get the parts at work tomorrow! By this weekend, I should have my car back together and good to go! Can't complain about getting a $1500 job done for $350! PLus, Al said he would get my heads plained for $20 so I am doing quite well! I need to get it there sometime this week and that is my goal! If I need to get a trailer and haul it in, I will make that happen! Well, off to get dressed and ready to make something happen today! Later
