Jap, I'll have to either wait until next year, or finally get cleared for full duty in order to get an Eotech..... Until then, I'll have to stick with the trusty iron sights....They're good for up to 800 meters..... It's like playing AT&T long distance...Reach out and touch someone....
Went to the sportsman's club for the annual game dinner. Had Moose, Bear, Deer, Rabbit, Turkey and everything else they had. My daughter finally got to eat Moose, Rabbit and Bear for the first time. We have two pet rabbits so I told her it was turkey until she was all done eating it. LMAO, she was not happy about that. She will never look at her pets the same. Ted Nugent would be proud.
I've been looking for something for the past couple of months and swore it was in a box in my basement. My husband who has been insisting I was wrong decided to go to the basement and pull out all the boxes of old stuff to show me I was wrong. Well, it turns out in this one instance he was right and it wasn't in any of the boxes. But while we were looking, we found a lot of old pictures, things that I had put away for the kids when they were babies and some things that we had each saved since we were kids. There were a few things that may actually have some monetary value, but the sentimental value is priceless. It was a nice trip down memory lane especially when we came across stuff that I thought I threw out more than 20 years ago. Oh and he was wrong too because what we were originally looking for wasn't where he said it was either, but we did eventually find it.
Exahole's wife#2 filed for divorce. And he though **I** was bitchy!! I wonder how many times he's going to blame ME for this one...
I know I shouldn't gloat... but it's so hard not to! He took Princess out for dinner last night... after all this time he still has no clue why he has no relationship with his kids.... she tried to explain it to him... but he kept going off with "Well your MOTHER ______" As I recall I DID say it wouldn't last 5 years...
OMG Proof positive Manchild#1 listened to me at some point of the college discussions. He has zero clue what he wants to "do"... law, cooking, psychology.... no idea. So I told him to apply to Massasoit's culinary arts program, SEE if he likes it, if he doesn't then he can use those courses as elective fill ins on something else. Either way they're lesser expensive credits, or launching pad to somewhere else, or working... His acceptance letter came yesterday. (I'm just going to go on letting him think it was all his idea... )
When getting ready to leave for work tonight, my 2 year old was still awake. He proceeded to tell me, ok more like try and order me, " Dadda, NO! You can't go to work tonight. I wanna snuggle. Take your shoes off NOW!" Now, If I can only figgure out a way to get him to go to sleep at a decent hour as for the past few weeks, he wants to stay up until 2230-2300......
Manchild#2 bought his first "car" today.... A 1995 Dodge Caravan, 7 passenger... NEVER saw an 18yr old SO excited to own a minivan.
Just came back from a week in Florida with the kiddos. All 3 of them (all under age 5) were awesome on the plane, and the entire time we were there. It could not have gone any better! Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
You mean, you didn't let the kids stand up in their seats and scream??? What kind of awful mother ARE you???
Sometimes I don't know what's worse the kids or the parents. The last time we flew back from Florida we had Sam-ewe-ELLL (that's how she said it repeatedly) and his family on the plane. Between his running up and down the aisle and his mother constantly repeating his name and doing nothing else, it was the worst flights I've ever been on. The second worst was being stuck on a plane that had to circle because we couldn't land due to weather, then finally landing but having no gate to go to, so we sat for another couple of hours until they finally allowed us to disembark and bused us back to the terminal.
Found out that the nerve damage is permanent. Now before you start thinking I posted in the wrong thread or have completely lost my mind, this is actually a good thing. I finally have a diagnosis and no doctor or insurance company can tell me that it's in my head, that I'm exaggerating, or that I'm making things up. No more painful treatments that don't work. No more fighting with insurance companies to get tests & procedures approved. No more feeling like I'm playing beat the clock because the way the symptoms came on the damage was probably done before I even knew the clock was ticking. I don't know maybe it hasn't sunk in yet and in few days I'll be really pissed off, but right now it's like a huge weight has been lifted off me. I can focus on figuring out how to adapt to this and get my life back.
Manchild#1 got accepted to his first choice college !!! Now we work on scholarships... having his Eagle rank under his belt should hopefully help... I hope!
Other than the hot weather that sucks for this time of year, got some good road maintenance done today, with a new box grader, another day or two and I will be done.
