Random thoughts and ramblings...

I'm assembling a play system in the backyard for my boys. The instructions say 16-20 hours construction time. I have 35-40 man hours in it, a good portion of that is in sorting and labeling hardware and lumber. I'm not even half finished.

I'm 37 years old. Why was tonight the first time I've ever had mango sorbet? Have I really wasted all these years eating ice cream when I could have had this stuff? I think we're adding it to the regular weekly grocery list.

Tonight I was doing the dishes and heard music coming through the monitor from Jonathan's bedroom. "Won't you take me to Funkytown..." He's not even 2. The Lackey's... Keeping things interesting since...

I cooked dinner tonight. I cook dinner most nights. I do it because I like my cooking best. Shelly is a good cook. I'm better.

I am also better at ironing.

The stupidest thing I EVER did was let Shelly know I knew how to iron. Around our house, if you do something well enough, it becomes your job.

I watch more TV shows now than I've ever watched. I discovered Comcast On Demand, now I generally watch them on there without commercials. I can watch a week's worth of shows in 3-4 hours, when it is convenient for me. Bullrun, Celebrity Apprentice, and Pawn Stars are my favorites.

I like the feeling of satisfaction I get when I finish cutting the grass and see how good the freshly cut yard looks, but I hate actually cutting the grass.

I really enjoy blogging, but sometimes it seems that Facebook makes it harder to blog.
