Rainy Days and Automatic Weapons Always Get Me Down

Success.

You can get rid of a dust pan if you do it while it's raining. Apparently the trash collectors aren't as enthusiastic about doing you favors in a downpour.

Banking on this success, I left son1 at the bus stop in the rain yesterday morning, but they brought him back that afternoon. May need to study on that one a bit more.

Long Strange Trip

What a strange week. It poured rain all weekend, but that didn't stop us from making a nice Tex-Mex dinner Saturday night, having a friend, my daughter and son1 all eat together and forgetting briefly the fact that my little bride was out of town.

Monday, son2 beat me out the door and by the time I got outside he had connected a sprinkler to the hose, put it in the middle of the yard and turned it on. I don't know what he was thinking since it was in the middle of a downpour.

This morning there's a message from son2's school that he is having behavior problems and they want to discuss them. Hell, I had behavior problems when I was his age too. Probably runs in the family.

Received an email photo of my new grand-dog today...
