Observatorio Del Nazas

Ever since our grandson, David has come to live with us it has been a real hassle for him to have a spot of his own to do his homework and crafts. Today we found an old folding table and me moved some of our stuff around in his room and set the folding table in there for him to do his homework on. We had an extra office chair he could use and whe  we got that put into his room he was set. Tonight he had a place to do his homework and everything is good in his small world.

When I got up this morning I had no idea what was in store for me. I was meet at the door by an angry faced woman with a cleaning rag in her hand, it is spring cleaning day and you had better not try to escape, was what I was told and now I am tired and sweaty, and the day is only half over, I can see that today will be a bad day for me, now the dogs have fled to the basement, I wonder if there is room down there for me to hide with them, Cassie it seems is the smartest of the bunch, she vacuumed half of her room and then snuck out. I guess I better get back to work and quit loafing.

Today is my loving wife’s birthday and I still have not gotten her the birthday gift that I have been looking for. I really wanted to find her a broach that we had seen a couple of years ago, but the search for this kind of broach is driving me crazy. I have searched online as well as in the many different antique shops here in Nashville, all to no avail. I guess I will have to give up for this year and find a different gift for her. Oh well happy birthday Hun. We will be taking the whole family out to eat later and that will be a lot of fun I am sure. Not sure that David will like the Japanese steak house, I hope he finds something there that he likes.

Without a team in the hunt for the Super Bowl I was kind of cheering for the New Orleans Saints to win, but I was more against Peyton Manning. I live in Tennessee and I hate the University of Tennessee with a passion. It is incredible that the people here think of him as a god. I feel that he is a cheater and I hate the way he is so self focused. I even did not enjoy the commercials this year. In the past the commercials have been very witty and kept us entertained even if the game was boring. Let us hope the next Super Bowl is better or at least the commercials are.

Today I hit a milestone that just a few years ago I did not think I would have a chance to reach. Today I turn 50 and it amazes me that I have gotten this old all of the sudden. It only seems like a few years ago I turned 30, and that was an age that I did not want to admit I had reached. So how do you think I feel about 50? I am just going to say that I am 39 and holding, it not only women that are vain about their ages. I think that next year I will back up instead of going forward. I am now looking forward to my next birthday, at least I think that I am.
