Anything but Music....

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Thanks to all that contributed to my November blog. I have to admit I set it up to take a break, collect my thoughts so I could blog w/ fury and have alot to talk about. BUT, it back fired; I have no idea of what to say. Well, I can I write about the schnee that has covered our city, or is it a town...city, I think. A town is smaller, yea we live in a city.....anyway, the schnee, it's nice, it brought w/it frigid temps, the high today was 30, the low tonight is to be around -2…ouch!! Anyway the house in the pic is ours, all decorated for Christmas. It doesn’t blink or flash like the one in the video, but it’s homey. I’m sure that you all have seen this video from last year, but I thought that I would feature it to get us all into the Christmas spirit.

October

I got to thinking this morning, I just recently had my 36th birthday, & was think of every ones age in my family. My brothers are 8 & 10 years older than me, my kids, my wife, my mom & dad. It dawned on me that I am the same age as my dad was when I was when I was born, he was 36. I don’t know if this means anything or not. Just interesting I guess. I still feel young, well not at this moment at 6:20AM on a Monday morning, but overall I still feel young. I guess I am! They say that you are as old as you feel. I feel like I am……….27, tired, but 27.

I was talking to someone the other day about skiing, I mentioned that I am going to have to wear some type of knee brace because a few years back I tweaked my knee skiing and every once in awhile I can feel a strain. So ask me at the end of the winter how old I fell then. This Christmas we have plans to go skiing or at least do some serious schnee playin’ while my oldest brother & his family along with our mom come to visit.
