Twilight

I read the complete series last week and am shocked to tell everyone that I am obsessed with these books. I kind of feel bad for out right disappearing on my wife last week. She would come home and turn the TV on as I was sitting down stairs reading. I don't know if anyone else has the same problem but I am extremely easy to distract when I am reading. So all of last week Marilyn would come home expecting us to watch TV and I would retreat to the bed room for the rest of the night I even missed a couple of dinners just to finish these books. I don't think I have been this invested in a book since Harry Potter. (which I started reading again last night.) The Twilight series was amazing. I can't stop running it through my head. I really recommend the Books.

Tomorrow I am going to a concert that I have been waiting for, for about two years. Two years ago I went to The Warped Tour here in Dallas. My favorite band of all time was playing there and Killswitch Engage put on the best concert I have ever been too. I waited for them to come back but the hadn't until know. I am going to Music as a weapon tour which has Killswitch Engage and Disturbed whom are at least co-head lining. I am super pumped.

I am extremely tired. This entire week I have been going to sleep late and getting up early and Saturday took the cake. We had some friends over and didn't get to sleep until four. The night before that I didn't get to sleep until two o'clock. Both of these days I got up at about 8:30 or 9:00. If I make it through the day, I may take a coma tonight. Starting at about 5:30 when I get home.

Will be back soon.

Peace

Oh the Weather

Out side is frightful. jk I love that song and it fits so I will use it. Do you think I will have to pay a royalty? I hope not. I finally got all the issues on my truck figured out and 850.00 later it is reliable again. I saved us about 300 though by putting on my own alternator. I find it unbelievable how much dealers charge for simple tasks. I sat down yesterday and looked up a computer program that I am going to save up and get. It is the same ones dealers use to fix cars. Basically if you know what you need to fix you type it in and it gives you step by step instruction on how to fix it. I would save so much money if I can find one that covers all makes and models. I would fix everything myself. Any way the alternator literally took 20mins to switch out and saved 300 bucks. You're welcome bank account..

Today is my 2nd Wedding anniversary with Marilyn. I got her something she always wants but can't write it on here yet because I don't know if she has received it yet. I love her and am still happy with my choice.

This weekend is another full of no rest. I am looking forward to one day actually getting to relax all weekend. Maybe it is coming soon.

Peace Andrew

Lay offs!

I haven't really been blogging because I usually do it at work. I have had to try and avoid the Internet at work due to the fact that my company is doing lay offs. You know keeping my head down. Being busy, looking busy all that stuff. Well today the axe was dropped and we had a ton of people get let go. I was not one of them thus me blogging again. It is sad to watch people I have worked closely with for two years get let go like they don't matter. I hated watching friends looking so lost like they had no idea what they were going to do. It made me appreciate my job more and also I think I realized that even if I had lost my job like them I know I would have been ok. Its like my mom always said when I was younger and never believed her or just brushed it off, "God will always be there." It is so true. I mean it is hard and there are a lot of people that don't think it will happen. After things in my life and my moms life and friends lives I have to start buying into that fact that while it may not be easy God has a plan and will watch over us.

I went to a birthday for Keegan on Tuesday and was having what my wife calls a "Fat Day". I just hate the way I look and want to do something about it. I wish I wasn't so lazy. I have blogged about being all worked up about this before and I don't want to day the old. "but this time I mean it." I am going to put up or shut up no more complaining I do it or I don't. I love the gym is my new mantra.

Any body want to go help me some Saturday put up a fence on my land? All volunteers reply below.

Peace Andrew.
