Plenty on my mind, not enough for a decent article.  Scratch that, I have enough but the timing is not right (trust me on this one 🙂 )

  • We are supposed to have some kind of snow storm this week.  The Midwest was actually mentioned in the predictions, which is kind of odd.  What I mean by that is that there could be 3 feet of snow dump in Nebraska, the Dakotas, Iowa, Wisconsin, or Minnesota and it does not make the news feeds.  Five inches in New York City = News Frenzy!
  • Our sewer was relined today.  Made for an interesting day as we were (are at the time of writing) not supposed to dump fluids down the drain, flush the toilet, take showers, etc.  I am not so sure that ours needed it but we did not have a say in the matter.
  • Sam made his first deposit in the toilet today.  At 17 months we feel we can have him completely potty trained by his second birthday if not before then.
  • Taxes are done, but not filed.  I am not sure what I am waiting for, but I always do this.  It makes no sense seeing as we will get a refund.  Maybe next year when I will probably have to pay in for the first time in a long time it will make more sense to wait.
  • It just dawned on me, earlier this evening.  I have not had Buzzard Billy’s in almost four years!  I am due, especially since they are back in Des Moines.  Granted it is not in the original location, I am sure it is just as awesome as it was.
  • I have a new phone on the way, or rather a new to me phone.  I purchased a re-certified phone from an eBay auction.  Why?  Simple.  I am on a grandfathered Verizon unlimited plan, and my current phone is tanking after a few falls.  Not getting anything special, but will get 4G unlimited until Verizon decides to un-Grandfather our plan, at which point we will be shopping around.
  • I am anxious to see when the Packers will be in Cincinnati, as we had already decided that is our game to go see in Cincy this year.  The backup game for me this year is in Chicago, which may happen as well.
  • I am really disappointed in myself with this blog.  I was hoping to stay dedicated and post often.  However as I mentioned in a previous post, it is just harder than I thought to upload quality posts everyday without getting too emotional.  Besides, I am not a journalist.
