Fighting 4 Sanity

You dont have to be crazy but it helps.

Auto Draft

I have been reading the Gizmodo site for a while now. A month or so back I discovered that they do weekly photo challenges. I have been watching them for a while and finally decided to submit an image to it. Well I must have done something wrong because I didnt get a confirmation that they received it nor did my image appear in the gallery. so I am going to just post it here for every one to see. I thought it was a pretty good image let me know what you think.

Vacation

It has been a long several months, but we are rewarding ourselves with a vacation. Tomorrow night the family is heading to Michigan to visit and relax. Jacki is going to be flying in on Sunday and we are all staying at Jess’ dads place. Jess’ dad has horse and a pool so we should have a good time. When we get back Grandma Betty will be in town for Brians wedding. If we have highspeed internet will post pictures through out the week.

Took the little one to Becks Pond

Yesterday it was so nice outside we decided to take the kids to Becks Pond. Becks Pond is a small pond down the road from us that has a jungle gym for the kids, some picnic areas and a pond(obviously). We brought bread for Xavier and Athena to feed to the ducks. They had fun throwing the bread in the water and watching the baby ducks race to get it. After feeding the ducks Xavier and Athena made friends with another little boy who was there with his father. They spent an hour running around on the Jungle Gym. After that we headed home for some lunch.

Decided what I want to get

ok so I decided to get a basic Point and Shoot digital camera, and an 8 glass set of beer glasses. The camera actually came in the other day and it looks great. the picture quailty seems ok. More testing to do still. The beer glasses havent come in yet, but I am really looking forward to getting them.

What to get

A while back I setup a data feed for a Showtime promotion at work. As a result I was given a number of Showtime rewards points which I can use to get stuff. I logged in today and I have 900 points. Its not a ton but enought to get something really kewl. So should I get a point and shoot camera, or a 16GB Ipod Mini… suggestions?

Started Lifting Again

I started lifting again. Rob recently decided to setup a gym in his basement. I was able to get my brothers weights for Rob and now I am taking advantage of them (o:

Started last night. A light workout to get things working again. I suprised myself and was able to bench more than 100lbs. That doesnt sound like much but I only weigh 130 so thats 80% of my body weight. not too shabby for the first start. I am also trying to eat correctly to gain muscle/wieght. we will see how that goes.
