Mary got a new Kodak so we are back in the taking pictures of our kids business. There are new pics of Giovanni, Brontë(obviously), Nyoka, myself, and our cat Bob. There will many more soon but these are our first run. I had to buy a car reader to transfer these to my computer to upload here. So keep an eye out and see whats to come.

There are many people in the world(duh!), Each ofus has something cool about them. For instance Stephani has a head the size of the recently discovered Planetoid - Sedna(We won't mention stephani's tail.) And, Katie can annoy tall buildings in a single bound. Brontë runs JUST like Jan Brady. Nyoka has really strange feet. Mik has a gene simmonsesque tongue. Joee is NOT a good hairstylist. And Gio? Well he can clear a room in 3 seconds flat with a toxic diaper. Mary, well she is the queen mother of all nap intruders. Me, I have an 11th toennail that I refer to as my mutant superpower( sorry no pic). And after listing all these meany (but silly and inytended to be funny not hurtful) things I get to my point. STephani's Matthew has something special. He is colorblind. A called and asked him what type he had (shows ya how smart I am. I didnt even know there WERE types until I found this website.) and he said it is Deutanope. I still think it is pretty cool. I mean all I got was an eleventh toenail, bipolar, and a weak sense of humor.


OK in all fairness, I have to speak up. None of these things are really as drastic as I imply. Steph's head isn't as big as Sedna the new planetoid(maybe just a small asterooid.), Gio doen't clear the room, and Mary is isn't the evil ender of all naps(ok well maybe that one is a little true.). My point here is that I am just poking fun at everyone else to get around to talking to Matthew. Oh and by the way his mom is supposed to be sending a CD of pictures of him for me to post in the albums. these will be pics of Matthew as a child, teen, etc.

Well sometimes I find stuff in places other than online. While at a grocery store that I will leave nameless for the time being, I noticed this shelf tag. It appears Butt is currently going for $12.77 a pound. I know a few people who are carrying around enough to purchase their own small third world country or at list fund a small government coup in one. Wouldn't you say? I suppose it would be VERY unkind of me to name names though, so I won't do so. Of the potentential coup benefactors or the third world countries in question.

My Tropheus Aquarium (5-27-06)

Well with the snow I had planned on sleeping in becaus ethere was no chance of doing any landscaping today. But Frankey decided to wake dad with some licks to the face.So here I am quietly typing away, hoping to get a blog entry in before anyone realizes I am up.

Speaking of blog entries where am I in life.

Well, I have been doing some work with My brother-in-law Doug to help him out with Landscaping.

My Aunt Nellie (Uncle Junior's {HA!CHA!} wife) passed away last week. It was a sad loss but she is in a better place making sweet tea for the angels now.

Ummmmm, the potty training with Mik I going both Good and Bad. He is peeing in the potty really well now. However, He seems to be having some difficulty with anting to go poo on the pot. He says he can't get his underwear down. We'll get there eventually.

I'm still Job seeking. Mary has been a tremendous help. Gawrsh I love that woman. She does wonderful things for me. I miss her terribly at times when I am away Landscaping. I got spoiled being able to IM and email her from a computer while at work.

OK, so mo last few posts haven't really toldf you much about what is going on with me lately so i figured that i should at least give you some wort of update. I mean I "market" my blog and site to family that I don't see often so I figure I should give em there due. Well lets see. If you didn't follow all of the picture links in my last Gallery Update, and yopu didn't read my answers to my Humpday Meme....well then you may not know that i know have 306 gallons of fish-tanks in my house. I accomplished this by getting a 90 gallon aquarium setup last weekend. Along with the setup(as part of the package) I received 7 Red Bellied Piranha. these guys are about 5 to 7 inches in length each. I fed them some steak last night. It was actually a VERY interesting experience. The DO eat as kind of a swarm or Pack.....but are no where near as aggressive on the whole as you might think.
