Merry Christmas

Well here it is the night before Christmas, me and the wife are watching the first season of bones. It does not look like it but those lights are colored lights. Littlebit seems to be eating our fake tree. he thinks that I like it when he sits under the tree but I know that he is looking for something to eat. Well me and the wife got back from m-i-l house and I made out like a bandit. Got all the tools to do an oil change and to fix the cars from m-i-l and m-i-lc. S-i-l gave me the movie up and the bones season one and two. got some flashlights from the wife.

6 Days

Well I have exactly 6 working days until Christmas vacation. We had family gathering for the Christmas. I had a good time but the women folk did not do their usual outing to Michael's or Joann's. I have not had my tree lights on since the last time I wrote in my blog. I am going to quit smoking for the new year. But first I must diet to get back down to a decent weight.

Happy Thanksgiving

So thanksgiving was fun. We had m-i-l, s-i-l and m-i-lc, and c-i-l over and had a lot of left over turkey. We got the back bedroom almost done then we started to shove everything into it. Got a bed and the desk done on thursday. I am trying to quit smoking and it is not going to good. I really want a cigar but can not have one. I sould go shower and put on a patch or two.

Projects

Well I finished that one project and started on another 3. finished 2 and now trying to do this one that I call a scarf hat. I decided to not make the scarf hat and make a cowl instead.That's what is on the circular needles. The two square looking things are booties that my mom likes. I have to sew them up then they are done. I have never made a cowl before, so it will be fun. Thursday will be my quit day for smoking. I will be getting some of that smokers gum and some patches. So this time I hope it will work. but the cowl is worked on circular needles in the round. Knit all the way for 30 inches. I found some more projects as I went looking for my dad's scarf. I am not very far along in it and need to get it done soon.

This is the beginning of my dad's scarf which says #1 Weis Dad. I spelled it like his last name and is pronounced like wise. I have no idea where my real father is and have no idea what he is up to since he has not written in a while I sure do hope that he is OK. His mom would love a afghan from me (which I might get the chance to work on after the holidays). I wonder if my dad would like an afghan. I found another afghan in my bins of yarn and decided to make that one for this friend that has a house that no one has seen yet. I wonder when he is going to host the next magic the gathering party. He says that the house is so small that the mice have a hard time turning around.

On this day of Veterans I would love to take the time to say that we are thankful for those that have gone before us and that those that have worked side by side with us and those that we will never get to meet. Thank God for our Armed Forces.

Bad days

I am having one of those days. I just wish that I could be a normal person then I would not have gotten out of the military. The truck is running alright the check engine light went out last night, and now I am worried. A friend of mine said that when he gets Internet then I could come over and play x-box sounds fun but I think that he would love to play one of those shooter games. I just can not wrap my mind around them and will be no good with it. My favorite game are like mind games. You know like Magic the Gathering.

Happy Halloween !!

Its drunk night for all you freaky people so have fun. So me and the wife are watching Revenge of the Cat People. Watching the cats fight. Need to feed the cats and rabbit. Do not want to. The movie is good. It is better then those that came out in the 1980's.

The Brakes

Well on Saturday me and my mechanic changed the brakes on the truck. We had all the tires off and did not rotate them. The passenger side rear tire had a blown brake cylinder. So we changed that will the front brakes. My mechanic said that we will need to change the back brakes the next time we change the front ones. Then me and wifey went to the Salvation Army and got a new couch and love seat, with a new project for me. Then on Sunday I worked on the back room.

I muded the walls with some Spackle then helped the wifey with the house hold chores. It was mostly clean. I really need to get the grass made shorter.

Welcome to the Weekend

Well here it is the weekend and I have to work on the truck and house and make the grass shorter. I found out that my m-i-l is worried about me dying in a fiery crash. My brakes on the truck are bad and I need to change my spark plugs and wires. The wife on the other hand is not worried in the least I think that if the break lines are cut and I was to die in a fiery crash she would be 1,000,000.00 richer, but I think that you need to sign the paperwork and that the would be a heath test and I smoke cigars like a fiend (at least 2 a day {although last Friday I had a cigar and then it went though the weekend and by Monday night I was dying and could not get one until Tuesday when I got my truck back}so there went one on Tuesday skipped out on Wednesday and Thursday I finally got some money in my pocket for my cigars.)

So How is everybody? Me and the wife are doing Fine as can be expected with a money pit for a truck and house. I just sent a note to my father in germany and hope that he is fine and dandy like a mouth full of cotton candy. Talked with mom today and she said nothing is going on in her neck of the woods.
