Elsa and I are going to the Bahamas again in 3 days. Mom and dad are flying in to watch the girls. We’re trying to get a will prepared before we go.

Down in Florida with the girls and Elsa’s parents. Having a good time. Monti and D about to get in the pool. Played Pickleball with LPK and dad yesterday. LPK cleaned our clocks…. Cold on Monday. We went do disneyworld – got picked to be in the main street parade on the auto ride with Pluto. Pretty cool day. Monti had a fairy godmother helping us. Mat lost his wallet – has to figure that all out before he hits the road soon to head here. That’s about it.

Have you seen my camera?
Think I might have lost my videocamera……. HDV camera here I come!
Monti is taking singing lessons. When asked why she wants to take them she said “Sometimes I start singing and I just can’t stop myself!”

another long time, no post post
Lessee… Waiting on Amazon.com to sign the EPA. Or not sign… Something will happen this week I think… Dahlia and Monti in gymnastics. Monti in singing lessons. Monti’s teacher thinks she’d be great on Broadway.. Going to introduce her to a guy from NY when he comes out who does something like that.
Finished listening to a years worth of Johnny B.
Should probably start listening to another audio book.
Programming : Working on FlexTD
Reading: Nothing at the moment unless you consider web pages…….
Screwing around with trying to kill spam on my flexgames forums
have some more bugs to kill on the flexgames app. Maggie living with us now. About to start her job at Parallels. Out on dates all the time it seems. About to go back home for my class reunion and Ryan Carter’s wedding.

Long Time No Post
Monti is completely into tornados (or not into them as the case may be). She is very afraid of them but draws them. We asked her if she’d want to move back to the Midwest to be by her cousins. Her response : “No, there are no tornados here so let’s just stay here”.
Dahlia is loving preschool here in Issaquah now. She dressed all in green for St. Pats day. So damn cute.
Mom and dad are in Italy I think… I’m thinking of maybe going to get my MBA over 18 mos. Maggie may move in with us in June……

Dahlia Breastfeeding
dahlia is fascinated w/bodies right now.. she’s fixated on my scar for example for my appendix thing…
also on boobs… she is fixated on breast feeding……
so she was taking this nutcracker doll guy we have… and trying to breastfeed him
she was making his mouth close on her nipple with the little handle on his back.. Elsa was laughing so hard when she saw her doing that…. she told me and i was laughing…..

Dahlia went to Potty (voicemail)
Dahlia telling me she went to potty on a voicemail.
Back up to my original weight.. maybe a little more.. working out almost every day… which really means i jog or go to gym… jog is more of a 1 mile run and 1 mile walk.. i found that when i was on the roids pretty heavy my lungs did not have nearly the asthma issues that i have now… Right now 1 mile into it i can’t get enough air. I am going to investigate doing more albuterol before i jog.. could really open things up… workouts in gym have been good but not seeing a lot more muscle gain anymore… maybe I’ve hit a plateau.
Otherwise things are pretty good.
Monti and D had their first days of school respectively. I cried at Monti’s.. Not sure where that came from.. Must be the roids wearing off… The Joe from July would have beat up the Joe from September for that move. 😉
Monti seems to take to school well. Dahlia said it’s “not fun” when I asked her about it. But I think it’s growing on her. We got rear ended over the weekend. That wakes you up in a hurry. Elsa getting the car checked out right now. Waiting on some orders to come in to ‘make my year’ here at Apple. I declined going further in a job interview with Google at this point for a CSE position. The pay was not high enough… but the job looked very interesting.. Maybe I’ll go back to it in the future… Eating almost anything I ate before now… Though not nearly as ravenous as I used to be… I should go do a midday workout… adios…….
I enjoyed this 5th installment of the Mitch Rapp series. This was the first unabridged one of the set and I thought it was very enjoyable.. Again this is a mystery thriller…. Mitch gets revenge should be the title. Anyway.. George does a great job with the narration. A good solid can’t stop listening to it installment. (my rating 8/10).
