Stage

Tonight we start construction on the stage at church. We will be mostly cutting up studs and marking the floor where everything is going. My goal for tonight is to get all the angles figured out and to get all the studs cut and maybe the plate cut and laid out. If we get all that done, on Saturday we will start on all the fun stuff of nailing it all together. I really hope this turns out good. I think it will but now I am stressing because if it doesn't it reflects poorly on me. The good news is Brad and I got some more help which will be useful and make our lives so much easier.

Work has been a little stressful with layoffs. Fortunately I am pretty sure I am in the clear. I guess I will find out for sure next week.


This weekend I have work to do as usual. It seems like when the weather gets nice the busier I am. I am going to have fun tonight after the stage meeting, then its up early to get some work done around the house and then hit the stage again tomorrow.

Have a great weekend.

Peace

Hard work

This past weekend I spent out at the property with a couple of friends putting in fence posts. We had 40 something to do and got all the hole drilled and only have five posts to set in. It was such a hard working weekend. We started sat at about 12:30 Saturday and finished Sunday at about 6:30. I was exhausted. I have bruises in places I had no idea were getting beat on. Any way we are going again in two weeks to stretch wire, put in t posts and hopefully finish it all up. If there are any more volunteers that would like to come let me know. the help would be much appreciated. jk Kinda.

This week I finally get to go back to church. I have been so busy lately that it has been about two and a half months since I have been. Our church is about to move into our new building and we are waiting on me and the "Wilderness" to get a stage built. Hopefully we can get that done over the weekend or by the very latest next week. We are waiting on lumber, when it hits it is game on.

Well hopefully I will have more later. Thanks for checking in.

Peace.

Well Hey There

Oh looky there I am still blogging just went on vacation. It was a ma za zing. I love Cruises they are so much fun and every place we have been so far has been gorgeous. I really love the Caribbean. I wish I could live there all the time. The beaches and the weather, it is all perfect. We went on an excursion to the Yucatan Peninsula and on the beach there is a rv park. I thought that, that was the perfect set up. If a hurricane blows in, just hook up to your house and take off. Talk about beach front property. I would love to do that. Marilyn and I had a really good time and really re-connected with each other. I love being reminded of all the reasons I love my wife. This vacation was one of the best for us. We didn't fight and really soaked up our time together. It is so good for our relationship to just get away from all the distractions and just love on each other. Sorry about the mushy stuff but Its my blog and I will do what I want.

I miss all of my friends I feel like I haven't seen them in a while. Sometimes I question the friendship thing if I only see them at church. I need to invite people over more, and try harder. Looks like the Russell's need to have a Smoke Out. I will see if I can work that out. It is coming on Brisket season.

This weekend I will be doing some big time manual labor. I am setting all the posts four our fence on our propriety. Pray for me I will need all of your prayers. I do love manual labor though. I know it sounds strange but working hard and getting my hands dirty is what I love to do.

Peace

TWO DAYS!!

I am going to be cruising in Two days. We are so excited about getting on this boat. We really need a vacation. All week Marilyn and I have been having a big problem focusing on anything other than the cruise. ... Like right here I started thinking about it and didn't type anything for a full minute. Today is my mommies birthday though. I would say how old she is but i don't have a death wish. Lets just say she has worked really hard raising us for a very long time. Love you mama. Any way back to the cruise. Marilyn and I are going with a bunch of friends and we are so stoked to be going with them. I hope everyone is really jealous. Marilyn already said this is going to be the stress free screw it week of our year. Screw it week means that we say screw it to every thing and relax and do what we want when we want to do it. It is going to be Legend... wait for it .... Dary. Every one should watch how I met your mother it is the greatest show on the planet followed by big bang theory.

we went to the killers concert last night with a few of our friends. They did a great job and really put on a good show. My wife really liked it and that's why we went. Speaking of concerts I got the greatest tickets in the entire world. KILLSWITCH ENGAGE and Disturbed in the same show. I can tell you are all jealous as hell. I will admit it is hard to live such and awesome life. Jk. But I am wetting my pants in anticipation of this concert. We got crazy awesome tickets and I am so ready to rock the house out. "COME ON!! HOLY DIVER." Look into that you wont regret it.


And then I found 20 dollars.

Peace
