Amy seems determined to get naked today.

Ramblings, often stream of conscious, journaling the events of my life.
Ball of Energy
Amy woke at 6:48–far too early. I left her in the room to play while I took the elementary students to school. I figure the monitor is on and Cathy will hear incase Amy needs attention.
Amy just handed me her banana saying “Dada eat. Dada eat.” And I asked “you don’t want it?” and she said “I don’t want it” while shaking her head no. Amazing!
Books
I forgot to mention that Noah declared over the past several days “I’ve run out of books to read.” So, I started him on Haze and he seems to be eatting it up! This is Noah, the 2nd grader, who turns 8 years old on May 24th. I am interested in seeing if he relates the story at all to his brother Tommy
For fun I just asked Noah, “How old are you?” And he replies, “7 but I’m going to be turning 9.” Mornings are so hard on these kids!

A New Day!
Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:
This Morning
I slept like a rock last night. Woke at 5am long enough to silence the alarm then arose at 6am to slowly get dressed and dragged the kids from bed at 6:10.
Last Night
Enjoyed an episode of Futurama with the wife.
Exercise!
I left the house. I ran. It felt good.
That was probably the first time I’ve seriously run in 4 years! I used to run 2 miles a day. Granted, that is not as much as the serious exercisers but it got my heartrate up for the 20 minutes that I needed it there. This run was very short but more than just down the street and back. It’s a good start.
Let the Shoe Do the Walking
Adidas creates ‘smart shoe’
This shoe adjusts the cushioning, making the adjustments when your foot is in the air, using a tiny motor, screw and cables to make the shoe wear better and increase the performance of the runner. Now all we have to do is replace the knee bone and the thigh bone and a few others pieces then we can sit on the couch and watch ourselves on television running around the neighborhood.
Take care of your things
CDs, DVDs not so immortal This article advocates not stacking your CDs, keeping them in a fairly stable temperature, keeping them out of sunlight, and not using them as frisbees.

Dad mode
Took Noah to scouts and he passed from Wolf to Bear. I said I would most likely participate as a co-leader next year since the troop will continue to be very large. After that I dropped Noah off and ran to the store to get Sarah some more paint pens for her project and did some shopping for food and beverages.
Now trying to decide if I have the gumption to go run for 20 minutes. Let’s see if I can cause a heart attack by doing the thing that is suppose to prevent heart attacks.
My allergy cough is up and I’m concerned that I’ll cough through the performance on Saturday. My emails to the club were too little, too late so I’m on my own again.
I am so mentally exhausted.

Thanks to my laziness == lack of money — and our wonderful mayor’s 500% increase in automobile registration costs, my wife is pushing to get rid of some vehicles. I always envisioned us with a van, a sedan and a Jeep. She would like to see a van and something else.
Right now each vehicle we have has a problem. I have the skill and knowledge to fix them but I don’t have the time or the money for parts but that doesn’t mean I’m not prepared to deal with the issues and I have prioritized them in my head.
The way to resolve the problem is 1) for me to get us out of this neighborhood and 2) to get rid of all the current vehicles and replace them with a van and a sedan. They say the way to a happy life is a happy wife. She would be happier if I would just get rid of 1/3 of our junk. It would pain me at first but I’d get over it and be happier because she would be happier.
