Ohio

What a great day. It is after 10pm and it is still 65 degrees outside. I know that this will soon disappear, but it is nice to drive home at night with my Jeep windows open.

Busy Vacation

Well, we had a vacation, but it does not feel like it. I think I need a vacation to recover! We left for Michigan on Wednesday afternoon and arrived in Lansing at 5pm. Ed managed to get pulled over by an Ohio State Trooper for doing 71 in a 55 zone....he got the full 16 over. Why? Probably because he was wearing his Michigan hat. Wednesday night we headed to Reno's West and met up with Ed's friends from high school. My friend Barb, from law school, met us up there, too. We stayed for about 3 hours getting caught up with everyone. Got to see pictures of Jeff & Kari's twins, Jack and Brandon. They are 13 weeks old and beautiful.

On Thursday, we got up and headed to Kalamazoo. We stayed at my mom's for a couple of hours and then headed to Edwin's house in Galesburg. We stayed there for about 3 hours and then headed back to Lansing. Ed had a poker game to get to. On Friday, I actually did a little Christmas shopping, but I waited until the afternoon. In and out of Target with exactly what I wanted. We had Thanksgiving with Ed's family on Friday afternoon and were joined by our brother-in-law's dad, Jim. It was a good time. We spent Friday night relaxing and playing a little poker. We headed back to Ohio on Saturday morning.

We spent Sunday getting up some Christmas lights. However, we still need an extension cord before we can light it all up. Look for some pictures!

Gone Again

Well, Ed left today for Ft. Wayne, again. Seems like a weird time for them to go out of town, since it is a holiday week. Justice and I will be stopping in Ft. Wayne on Wednesday to pick him up on our way to Lansing. We will be in Michigan for a few days, trying to fit in a visit to as many people as we can. It is going to be one big slumber party and Mom & Dad's. Dave, Cathie, Nate, Madelyn, Emily, Ed, Justice and me are all staying there. It is like deja vu, except this time it is for fun!

Ridiculous!

This was one of those times where I wish I carried my camera with me every place I went. Ed & I went to Best Buy the other night so that we could get a router for the internet so he could hook up his Xbox Live. So, we pull into the parking lot and what do we see? A tent city - people hanging out in tents on the sidewalk of Best Buy. Why? To get Play Station 3. How retarded is that? Keep in mind that on this particular night it was raining and in the 40s. It is times like these that I seriously wonder about the intelligence of the human population.

Sad News

Legendary coach, Bo Schembechler passed away today at the age of 77. I can just imagine the discussions going on. Will the Wolverines use this to bolster them to vitory or will this lead to their defeat? I believe this will inspire them to put an ever bigger whooping on the buckeyes! GO BLUE!!!!

Yes, more jokes

Q: What’s the difference between a Buckeye and a carp?

A: One is a bottom-feeding, scum sucker, and the other is a fish.




Q: Where was O.J. hiding right before the famous white Bronco chase?

A: On The Ohio State University campus. That’s the last place you would find a football player.




Q: Why do Buckeye fans keep their diplomas on their dashboards?

A: So they can park in handicap spaces.




Q: Do you know why The Ohio State University Football team should change its name to the "Opossums"?

A: Because they play dead at home and get killed on the road.




Q: So did you hear Tressel lost his playbook this week?

A: He was very upset too.... he hadn’t even finished coloring it in yet...

New Schedule

Just found out that my new schedule starts on Monday, November 27th. I will be working Monday - Friday 1pm-10pm. I love this schedule, Ed will hate it. Why? Because I will not be home to make his dinner AND I get to sleep in even longer now. The bad part for me? I will have to DVR all of my shows and watch them the next morning.

Here are my Top 5 shows to watch:
1. Bones
2. House
3. The Unit
4. Battlestar Galactica
5. NCIS

Top 5 Shows that Suck:
1. The Office
2. My Name is Earl
3. ER
4. CSI New York
5. CSI Miami

7 days Before the Showdown

10 Reasons Ohio State Sucks!

10. Tressel wears a shirt and tie to hide the circumcision scars around his neck

9. Both Marilyn Chambers and Maurice Clarett prefer oral exams

8. Ohio State players are proof of reincarnation, you can't get that stupid in one lifetime

7. Between Ohio State and Cheerios, only one belongs in a bowl

6. OJ Simpson moved to Columbus because everyone there has the same DNA

5. Ohio State cheerleaders and Ohio State football both suck for four quarters

4. Ohio State fans smell so blind people can hate them too

3. The only sign of intelligent life in Columbus is a road sign that says: Ann Arbor 190 miles

2. Like Jennifer Lopez, Clarett got caught with too much junk in the trunk

1. Tressel blows, Clarett swallows, and the Buckeyes just plain suck

Stacy jumps right in on the back door action

Today with the cold starting to roll in and a day off of work I decided to install our new door that we bought a long time ago. I have never installed a door before, and this was a tough one to start on. First of all the door that was in there was chopped down the kick plate was under the sub floor plus the width was to small by about 5 inches. It was getting more air though it then most windows. I was not going to pay 500 dollars for a special order door. So at first we tore a big hole in the wall, then went and bought some wood and a new saw for me. working with many circular saws I have always liked the Milwaukee saw. All home depot had was the Milwaukee HD saw, darn huh!! All in all with lots of hard work and some laughs we got er done. with about 1 min of daylight left. 1 down 2 to go..

It was warm enough on Halloween for us to sit on the porch with cocktails while handing out candy to the neighborhood kids.
