Been awhile

So I haven't written in awhile. My sister is officially in college and on her own. It's going to het real quite around the house now! I wish her the best of luck. Roman and I are going to go up and see her Friday so I'll let you all know how she is doing so far!

Peace for now.

I love this

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.

When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full.


They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.


The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.


He then asked the students again if the jar was full.


They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.


Of course, the sand filled up everything else.


He asked once more if the jar was full.


The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.


The students laughed..

'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.


The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car..

The sand is everything else---the small stuff.


'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.


The same goes for life.


If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.


Spend time with your children.


Spend time with your parents.


Visit with grandparents.


Take your spouse out to dinner.


Play another 18.


There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.


Take care of the golf balls first---the things that really matter.


Set your priorities.


The rest is just sand.


One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented.


The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.'

The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of Beers with a friend..

My ear hurts

We went to the fair the other day. I had a freaking blast! But I'm concerned with the state of our nation! Why the hell are people spending 25$ on a visor with fake spiked hair, or a box that claims to burn calories through soundwaves!? I mean come on if that shit really worked don't you think the first time they heard of this technology would be somewhere other then a booth at the county fair. I'm pretty sure if it works I woulda seen it on MTV cribs by now. I mean Id be less skeptical if I saw it on an infomercial after late night tv, but I'm not giving the guy next to the deepfried twinky booth 2 grand to build a wooden sound booth that's gonna shed the pounds. Gimme a break people we are in a depression! If you wanna loose some weight walk to the store to buy you 8$ a pack smokes and save gas and help mother nature....we'd all win...except for your lungs.

Oh and I have swimmers ear.

Roman

I have roman this morning! My mother cooked him waffles which he is happily chowing down (although the deviled ham and eggs are not his cup of tea.). He is blowing my mind everyday with the things he does and says. I just think he is gonna stay this toddler forever and at this rate that is clearly not going to happen. Well soon enough I'll be taking him to school, trying to get him to focus on grades not girls, then diguring out how I'm gonna pay for college! But for now I will enjoy the lazy Saturday mornings when we watch disney channel and eat waffles.

Let's see how long this will work

So I'm trying to use my itouch to get in shape, counting calories building workouts and suck. Unfortunately beer is not at all healthy nor fits in my alotted calories. Oh well I'm tired of being out of breath after playing horse in the pool lol. Also this huge gut that sticks out of all my clothes aparently isn't considered sexy in todays abercrombie and fitch ruled world. Also my family argues over the dumbest crap. That was just an observation not anything more.

Peace and grease not in the middle east!
