Bored on Christmas eve

Oh yes the title explains it all. Im sitting here today and im bored. Alicia is at her grandparents house and my brother and sis are nowhere to be found. I actually found something productive to do, and went to wallmart for some last min things... Wow that was a very bad idea. Ok, I couldn't find a parking spot that was big enough to fit my enormous truck because nobody seems to know how to drive or park these days. So, I ended my gift hunting very short. On a good note, Hunter is back with us today. He has been away trying to get the best medical attention that best suits him... to say the least, he is back until friday so thats a good thing. For some reason, It just doesn't seem like Christmas eve. It's around 70 degrees outside and 2 days ago i was working out in the 20 degree weather, perfect just perfect for the good ole sinus's. Moving along, we are having family and friends over tonight to do the usual eating and dirty santa party. Mother makes a huge pot of her famous stew. Im not a big fan of stew but hers is the bomb dot com. Well i guess ill cut this off and try to find a good movie on the t.v., my last resort is the 24 hours of Christmas Story... oh joy, watching it is enough for me... you know i dont want to shoot my eye out or anything. Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Did i jinx myself??

Did i jinx myself? indeed i did. The year is winding down and i found out my total amount on vacation, sick and personal time. Well, my sick time was huge, 78 hours to be exact. Last year and this year's time has been combined to get that number. Slick ole me thought that he could pull a smooth one and be "sick" for a day; however I was wrong. I ended up feeling fine all day yesterday up until that night and BAM, the sickness hit me like a ton of bricks. So, I made the appointment and paid my pediatrician... yes i said pediatrician, a visit. Im 22 and i still go to a pediatrician, because dang, i dont find it neccesary to see a regular doctor. Well the doctor came into the room and said that my strep test was positive. Oh the throat, ahh oh the aches and pains.. come on now, im superman. So, i guess i did jinx myself and ended up sick as a dog. I could basically pinpoint it because Alvin got sick sick and had to go to the doctor yesterday. Of course the doctor told him it was strep, so that little booger likes to spread them germs. I blame it on the daycare. His daycare is crazy, It smells like a rotten turd in there and i couldn't handle it if i were a child. Anyways, thats pretty much all thats going on except school is over!!!!! Im wicked glad too. I need a break from the crazy classes and all the mess of studying. And Christmas is here," time to share the yule log.. well not like I have a log... well in the way you think i meant it"... Can anyone name that movie quote? haha thats something to think about.. anyways, im off to bed and get better! more stories for another day.

almost done!

Yeah that's right, almost done. What exactly am i talking about you may ask? SCHOOL! Im wicked excited that the semester is almost over, just another week and im finished until January. These few weeks have been crazy at work. I had to attend classes that are job related and it made me feel as if i had class from 8 till 9 at night. Not to mention it has been freezing, and I work out in the cold and the rain makes it even harder. Moving on to another subject.... Christmas! I mean it seems like yesterday Alicia and I were at the lake soaking up the sun and now Christmas time. That reminds me, I have my second family to buy for. I must say as the year is winding down, it sure has been a great one! Best year by far.
I cant wait for the big Bama game. oddly, it's at 3:00 but, i cant wait to have some of Bradleys amazing ribs, as well as dela's amazing whatever she cooks. It's good to have someone like Alicia who can appreciate Alabama Football like i do. Anyways Im in the need of some prayer. I need to sell the camper so that I can have some money down for a house. I know that it will sell in God's timing, but im just praying that his timing could be remotely close to mine. It's a nice camper and would be great for someone, but dang, i would rather have a nice warm home that is on my own... being a man... hanging sheetrock.. tuning up the truck... growing a beard.. you know the man stuff that i enjoy. But im really hoping that everything goes smoothly. I gotta keep in mind that God is in control and will take care of me no matter what. More stories on another day!
