Whats Up?

Yo, it has been a while since I blogged just thought I would drop a line, he he. We have been really busy & all with the boys both in baseball & church activities so little time. I have been doing some remodeling @ the house the dining room is all tore up with no sheet rock. I worked on my wife's car today got the door handle fixed in the front inside, but the rear outside door handle is tough especially with my man hands. Who designs these parts? How small do you have to be to work inside a door from a car it is so much trouble. I have a solution though I have a saws all at work that will help me get access to the part that I need. We had a praising service last night at church it was pretty cool, people just testifying on what Jesus has done for them. I had never been in a service like that. Work has been steady not too busy though.@ work we are done with the girl scout Cookies & about to finish with the phone books. Life is just passing us by like nothing I hope you have done something for God. It just seems like not enough hours in the day to get things done, I need to take a couple of days off to work on the house but I have been stalling. I really want to finish the house, but I don't want to use my vacation days to work on the house, but I will do what I have to do. Today I wanted to be with my honey for lunch , she had other plans , but she changed them, thank you baby. My house is a mess right now I feel ridiculously so overwhelmed with work. The strong wind blew off some of my shingles from the roof, bummer. I need to finish the Kitchen 1 more window to trim & set up the pane & I am done with the kitchen. I have not started the living room, just put trim around the huge A/C unit I have in the wall to make it a little fancy. I still have to do all the floors lay down Masonite then some tile then base board trim then there is one window to trim in the living room. Then I have to start the dining area where my wife took out the Sheetrock & we found a surprise, it used to be a porch they just enclosed it so it is all messed up. I have to put in a new door & a window then lay down Masonite & tile then all the trim around windows & door. Oh I forgot I have to put wiring in the new dining area it has no electricity so I have to run some wire & install all new outlets & light fixture. Not done yet I have to put on some shingles in the roof I haven't checked to see if my home owners insurance covers it. Then my wife wants me to install 2 yes 2 washers in the shed that is about to fall out back. She thinks this will help her do laundry more quickly, so I told her I would do it, so I have to run water lines & electricity to the other side of the shed too. I still haven't washed my truck or car in a while well the car mainly I have put it off so long. My truck is dirty inside haven't had a chance to vacuum it. Just pray for me I feel a little over whelmed, sorry to pour out so much & making this go on & on but I had to vent it out. I am trying to work on the house & car after work but it seems like I will never catch up, maybe with the time change I will have more daylight to work with, but remember the funds can only go so far. Well I am turning in already tonight due to the fact that I am really exhausted, but I cant let my family know how I feel I have to show the boys to keep going forward in life. I was fixing the kitchen when Mike was in there & I told him "You see all this that daddy is doing to the house, You better go to college, you better get an education, and buy yourself a a decent house that it wont take up your time & if it does you better know how to fix it." He just smiles & walks away & says "OK, Daddy", not a care in the world, to be young again with no responsibilities "DEEP SIGH" Laters till I write again my dear friends & fellow bloggers keep in touch don't be strangers, & remember me in your prayers I will greatly appreciate it. I will pray now for you guys, lots of Love.

Goat roper


This is for pigs, in this part of Texas they are big on hunting boar (wild pig), it is funny because I thought of a movie right away. Funny thing is that they were selling it @ H-E-B. I know you can guess the movie, how about you say another phrase of the movie with out giving the movie away to people who don't know the movie, hehe. Ohh & this stiff is used to lure the pigs out so they can be shot by bow & arrow.

What in the World?




Today as we were coming out of the thrift store we caught this passing by. By the way this was the second one I didn't get pictures of the 1st one. John & I we wondering what these things were. Later I asked Bro. Davila & asked him what these things were, & he told me the come from off shore & they haul about 4 a day. These are blades like a fan, they will go on the wind power generators some where here in the USA.

Prayer Request for Mike

Please pray for my son Mike, turns out one of his little friends is a punk & wants to fight him so much for being a friend. So I don't know what to do with him. I remember being bullied in school, that is how I became mean by the time I was in high school. I don't want that for any of my boys. Just pray for him & this other little boy to behave or leave him alone.

2007 Chevy Silverado





I came to the the realization I didnt need 4x4, so I went for the 2wd. This is an 07, supposedly, 1500 LT crew cab. It had 26,500 miles on it just about. 8 cyl. 5.3 Fuel injected. It has a 6 cd changer, plenty of room for the kiddos. This is what Jesus allowed me to have for 200 bucks a month pretty cool i would say. It was all God. HE is awsome isn't HE. Dark Charcoal is the interior, it is cloth upholstery. Oh yeah we pay about 20 bucks more for more bumper to bumper warranty, can you believe it my wife wanted something with warrenty for 200 bucks a month. I would tell her that was impossible. The dealership also gave me 5500 for my van, We also gave 6 gran down so we only owe 14 gran on it pretty cool. I didnt really want to post it, but here it is. My door on the truck says 06 so that is wierd. Black is really dirty so i have to wash it alot I guess.
