I start making Amy waffles. As they cook in the toaster I walk to the pantry to get a funnel and the waffles pop up so Amy in a confident and excited voice says “WaAffulls!” then looks and me and says “Go Dada Go! Go Dada Go!”

I guess she was hungry 🙂

As I am cutting the waffles she pulls open a draw that contains knives and I say “Close it” and she cheerfully replies “OOh K!” and pushes the drawer shut. Such a good child!

Prior to all this her brother Noah called to her “Amy. Sit beside Oah. Sit beside Oah.” She ran to be by his side in the rocking chair. She sat calmly for several minutes watching him play gameboy. She loves him so much and he loves her so much. I know they will always be there for each other!

I should enlist the aid of my wife to cold call businesses on web designs all day while I target people and businesses I know. We’d need a sitter to pull that off.

A New Day!

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:

This Morning

I want to hit the ground running but I have to care for the children for a bit.

Amy had a blowout and very messy diaper. I haven’t checked her bedding yet but while I am changing her on the couch a sleeping Sarah extends her feet and starts pushing at Amy. Thanks for the help! It was rather funny because if she was awake she would have not had her body much less her foot so close to such a mess. Noah declared “That’s the messiest diaper I’ve ever seen! I’m not throwing that one away!”

Amy’s in great spirits and enjoying playing with this toy that looks like a bunch of neon worms glued together in the center.

Noah is always jolly and happily playing Gameboy.

Tommy and I had a run-in so he’s back in bed. I went upstairs and he was dressed in Noah’s room on his elbows and knees with butt up in the air just staring at a flashlight. When I questioned him on why he had not brought his medicine down and asked him to get it he just lay there swaying his rear slowly for side to side so I gave it a tap with my foot and he went ballistic.

Last Night

Tommy and I played Dungeons and Dragons from 6pm-10pm. He was so well behaved and controlled that we had a great time and were able to play for that length of time! I was astounded and enjoyed myself very much.

I came home and instead of following my schedule I lay in bed with the wife and we learned how to use the Cable’s new video on demand system. After a decade or more of people talking about it.. the system is finally here and works great! We can start, stop, rewind and fast forward movies, music videos, regular television programs like DIY and Home and Garden, and more. It’s really cool!

Gone to play D&D. I’ve actually had a fun time putting together my character despite failing to accomplish my days goals and am looking forward to the intellectual stimulation.

Vaccuumed and mopped the entire upstairs. Slacked a little toward the end on Noah and Sarah’s room because of the abundant quantity of small toys that might have gotten eatten. House smells better. Other than getting sweaty in the clothes I planned to wear tonight I feel good.

Neighbors with bats, sticks capture suspected child predator

“They also accused him of hugging a 12-year-old boy on Saturday while he was wearing women’s clothing.”
If a 12 yr old boy is going to wear women’s clothing he should expect to get hugged by grown men.
“The homeowner called police and pleaded with the crowd to not harm the man.”
(subthought of homeowner… I don’t have the money or time for a lawsuit from this criminal. take him to someone else’s yard if you are going to beat him)
“…officers said residents shouldn’t take the law into their own hands.”
(subthought of officers… we fear for our jobs or paycuts when the tax payers realize they don’t really need us now do they!)

Our son is over weight and has breasts bigger than some maturing teenage girls. So, here is a link to let you test yourself to see if you can tell a man’s chest from a woman’s (update 21Feb2009: Link appears broken. Check archive.org) (Not Safe for Work! Adult Content!)

This Morning

I’ve got that “I want to drill a hole in my head” sensation this morning. I can tell that when I get older and start losing my mind that they are going to have to take all my power tools away.

Yesterday

After returning from camping, my wife misinterprets my urgent desires to de-tick as grumpiness and things go downhill from there.

For stress relieve we do some necessary shopping; for comic relieve while loading the groceries in the car Cathy and Sarah are looking around for the honey dew melon. When I get out to help look a gentleman walking by says “Looking for your melon? We drove past it as it rolled way down there.” Cathy had put it by her feet and it rolled the entire length of the parking lot without sustaining damage!

In the car I got myself psyched up about coming back to the house and working my tail off. Now that I’m here I just want to go to bed.
