This morning was a very fun morning. I mean really fun. It also set the stage for a great day…

Today, the Atomik Blonde took Mini T to a therapy session. This was a brand new thing where they believe that certain pressure points can help some of Titus’s problems. Now I’m all for natural medicines, like getting vitamins from all fruits and veggies and so forth. I do have issues with “holistic” healing. But I am a firm believer that certain pressure points can help things. Why? Simple. How good do you feel after a massage? So, she took mini T to this and I had the Ganoosh.

Well, since it was me and her and it was early, I decided to take her to breakfast. YEA! I love going out to breakfast. So we went to Wreck’s and got full! As good as the food was, spending time with just one kid was even better. Poor Ganoosh has been “pushed aside” lately, due to Titus’s issues. So I’m sure she really wanted to do this as well. What was also cool was seeing other dad’s with just one child. Almost made me want to go talk with them and set up a breakfast thing with them. (I just may need to do this)

Liana was hilarious. She ordered her own breakfast and drink. She was also very polite and said “Hi” to everyone that she saw. It was really sad when it was time to leave.

As we got home, Anna and Titus came in a little while later. We put Titus down and the Anna took Liana shopping. This was real important shopping. It was for my birthday present. Liana got me the greatest present and as it turns out, she thought of it all by herself. What is it, you ask? A Hotwheels set! I guess Liana saw a commercial for it and told Anna that she really wanted to get it for me. They went and looked, one day, and saw a couple but Liana knew which specific one that I was to get. They found it today.

I love Hotwheels, so this made it really special to me. But I really don’t want to open it, because of the sentimental value. I’ll open it. I can not deny Liana the fun of playing with Hotwheels.

We just can’t win, sometimes.

The atomik blonde had a great anniversary idea for us. She wanted to go to a sports bar to watch the Daytona 500 and the redwings. WOW, what a gift!

Well, no babysitter. She had to work.

So we stayed home and watched them. Mini T was sick, so all he did was cry all day and want to be held, until you picked him up, then he wanted down. So that was fun. Oh then Liana just threw up with very little warning. So she was miserable and wanted to be held. Now, one problem is that neith child wants daddy to hold them. So mommy was really unhappy.

So, happy anniversary, it was a memorable one.

Here it comes. There is no avoiding it. Well, without serious consequences.

My 40th birthday. There were times that I really thought I wouldn’t make it. I know that sounds cliche, however it is true. My late teens to late 20’s were pretty rough. Be that as it may, I did make it.

Well, here’s the skinny. My wife has planned quite the weekend and boy is it cool! First we, and some friends, are off to The County Line for BBQ! Then all of us and maybe a few more will go back to the house for a little desert and drinks. WOOHOO! Then Saturday it is over to the Albuquerque indoor karting, for a dose of go-kart racing, pizza and soda! Then my bro-n-law and I are going to the Linkin Park show, later that night. Finally on Sunday if the snow is good we will be going snowboarding! Quite the weekend for an old guy like me.

Now, the other night I got a call from my sis-n-law up in Denver and she said that AJ (her son) wanted to talk to our daughter on XBOX, so we did that. Well, during that conversation, I learned that they are coming out for my birthday! I am really excited about this. We don’t get to see them as much as we want to and this is going to be great. And just a few weeks after that, we’re going up there to help put in a sprinkler system for their yard. So this year it looks like we will get to see them quite a bit.

Now, I have received a present already and that is my new Canon Rebel XTi. This is a pretty sweet DSLR camera and I am jazzed to have a camera like this. Although it is now another expensive hobby that I have.
