update I guess

Hi.
So, still reading this?
Fine, I'll give an update to my three readers then:
-Had a birthday. 35. Tried to start working out and tore some muscles or something. My doctor says no more or super light, which means no more basically.
-Still geocaching with my brother.
-Cassie is still REALLY sick and it makes me REALLY sad to see her so fragile.
-I have been consumed with work that I hope turns into a big win for us.
-I have been waking up at 5am every day and I cant go back to sleep.
-Found a new music group that I like called Owl City.
-Our church is building a new building and I get to be a part of the build. Kind of exciting.
-ok, going to bed. scroll all the way down to my blog for the playlist, then the bottom of the playlist to hear Owl City. Love those guys!

oh you sad little blog.

Who is reading this still? Facebook seems to take precedent over updating blogs. So what's new with me? More than I can share.
I am trying to pick up a new hobby. Geocaching. My brother and I go out and conquer this when we can. It's more fun now that we have an appropriate device to guide us.
I have been in on again off again pain all week due to kidney stones...I think.
Cassie has started a detox diet ordered by her dietician. She has had major problems for a long time and nobody has been able to shed light on what could be wrong with her. So starting this weekend she will be going through very painful trials as she rids her body of this horrible bacteria that plagues her.
I had a friend leave Redding, moved far away this month. I miss him so much. Just knowing that he was here, in this town, offered me comfort. Anyways, it sucks.
My children are healthy, thank you Lord. They offer me so much joy. I love every second with them.
Something to look forward to: ....summertime. I have a long wait.

Day with the kids


Today I had the kids all to myself and it was GREAT! Cassie had to go to school for a class.

I was able to sleep in. The kids climbed in bed with me. Later, we made a huge breakfast. Then we made a map of geocache's to go find and we headed out. We managed to find 2 out of 5 we looked for. It was harder than I thought with out a GPS.

We came home for lunch, carrots and quesadillas, the safe bet that I am allowed to cook with out the kids throwing me under bus for what they are allowed to have. Uncle Mark came over with his new ODST Halo game. He bored us to death with the game for 15 minutes. (jk).
Then we made a trip to Lowes for some bags of cement mix for fence posts. On the way home we picked up chocolate frosty's from Wendy's, their first EVER. They said, we need straws? I said nope, spoon baby. They were like, no way! yes!! A joy that I got to experience as a dad. I loved it!

So when we got home, they played perectly. Jake helped me build our new gate. Mom got home, Julianne threw me under the bus about EVERYTHING she wasn't allowed to have. I mean everything! I half expected and didn't care one way or another. She just wants to take the attention off herself for any wrong doing she may have done. I love her so much!

My son made guacamole and used the reddest jalapenos from my garden. It was hot! He devoured it as it lit him up. THIS made me proud! I love that he is making stuff hot and liking it. He knows how much I love it so he thinks he needs to. He is a Cable. My boy.

Today was a good day. Especially since I didn't see much of them all week.

Zombieland?


I don't even care if this movie sucks. I think it will be a well worth it ride. I like zombies just fine. I also like stupid zombies. I don't like smart zombies.

Zombieland, please don't suck too bad.

No hats?


I am not sure why this is bothering me. So guess what? I will blog it.

I can't understand why I am so bothered by the fact that guys think it is ok to wear hats inside a place of worship, or at least my church. Granted it is a younger generation, maybe they just haven't ever been told. Maybe it is MY problem. If so then it makes me think one step further. Do they remove their hats when the National Anthem is played? Do they take off their hat if the Pledge of Allegiance is said? ...Probably. Then why not remove it when we pray? Why not remove it as soon as you enter your time of worship, which should be at the time you enter the church?

Like I said, I think it's an issue with me, old fashioned I guess. These youngsters have no idea about what us old guys think and how we were raised...sorry, how I was raised. So that said, I'll chalk it up to ignorance as an excuse, as I am sure they aren't doing it to offend me personally.

But understand this: I will knock that hat off your head, young or old, during the National Anthem. You don't have to pledge your allegiance to the flag, just show some respect I guess.

Why am I blogging this now? Because I love my country. I love my Lord. And I think a simple detail like removing your hat will show a sign of respect. Not doing so, shows disrespect. Neither of which I am ok with.
Have a nice day!

Fombag.com

Hey!
I LOVE these things. Check out this web site: www.fombag.com

I had the pleasure of sitting in one. Take it from me...A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!
If you have room in your living room for one, I highly recommend getting one. If you don't have room, make room. Get rid of the couch and put in one of these. I recommend the 6 foot bag.

It's not just a bean bag chair, its a bean bag chair on steroids. Filled with high quality foam. You can't beat the price either.
