quick note

Hey ya'll Not much going on but I have started this myspace thing and I much like it.... however I know some of you are still doing the whole blog thing so on here so my life for now is split between here and myspace although I believe myspace is wining

well lets see I am looking to move into a new house ... my puppy is doing great and work is the same... work however we are changing our small spce so that it is better I think... anyway if you all want you should come and visit so that you can see a show
stay in touch

SO I know its been awhile since I wrote but I have been kinda busy since my last post. at least I haven't been taking the time to keep my internet life up to date but thats cool...
I am here now and about to tell you alll about what I have been doing for the past 2 months well lets see I went on a cruise, built some shows and started dating a wonderfull woman.... not in that order persay but all has happened....
I am still trying to lose weight but ever since the cruise my body hasn't let me lose weight I think that is cuz it knows what food is again and kinda stalled out saying no more weight loss but I am really trying I even started riding my bike to work and to other places just to get around its been great exercise but the scale is telling me I haven't lost weight yet BOOO... oh well I'll keep trying at it .....
on the girl thing if you all really want pics you should go to her blog she actually posts pictures I just kinda write when I can her blog addy is www.sugrspice1.blogspot.com really you should go there she has some pics of me up there not sure if there are any of here but I'll bet there will be soon....
she is just that way ohh yea for those of you who don't know her, her name is Jessica Rano and she comes from Yale oklahoma went to OSU and is working on graduating from there.... she is awesome... bad news though and one of the reasons I haven't been bloging lately is that she is newley dignosed (sp) with MS and has been dealing with that its actually not that bad the Doctors caught it early and she started treatment two weeks ago. she has to take this medicine once a week the hard part about it is that she has to inject it herself and hte needle is like 2 inches long and she has been awesome with the whole self injection its hard to watch but the doctor said I should learn to giver her shots too so I did but all I have had to inject was an orange which is fine with me but I am sure there will be a time when she will need me to help her with that...
but it would be great if people would keep her in your prayers...

anyway I am sure I will write more .... I am going to Tulsa in like a week to go see my family that should be fun I am taking Tira home I am sure she will love it
well it is getting late
I'll write more later take care all and God bless

crazy week

Well hey there its been a bit since I said anything its been an interesting couple of weeks. we got our first show in of the year Bird sanctuary MOM I think you and dad should come see this one not sure what it is about but this lady haliey mills in it and I am told you will know her anyway, I am sure any of you peeps who would liek to come down I could get tickets for. well lets see its been fun in the shop I have been building a fence for pure confidence and well it was nice the first time I built it but then the director wanted it 3 inches shorter but the arch wasn't right so they decided to change it to a bigger arc OHH yea the fence is in a circle so I half to cut them into a circle before I put it together.. well I ended up rebuilding hte fence twice and it was rather tedious cuz I don't like hte way the fence turned out but they are done so onto the paints let them make my work look good .... thats what they do. but anyway in short thats what I have been doing at work other than that I am gonna go get a tux tomorrow for the ball in feb I am kinda looking forward to that its gonna be fun to get out of town and do something different with some cool people I work with well I'll inform you later on the rest of whats going on but you all need to just send me an email and I'll be happy or better yet just send me a real snail mail thing. ahh well

turkey day

WOW this thanksgiving was LONG... mine started out at 4 in the morning after a night of packing and chating on the phone till late, doing some laundry you know the usual stuff before you leave on a trip.... well got to the airport all good no problems with delays or anything started really reading this new book while on the plane almost finished it got like 10 chapters left. but all in all the traveling was fine. HOWEVER when I landed I went to pick up the one bag I checked which I shouldn't have but I didn't want to deal with it... its definatly small enough for carry on. well I did check it and because it is me something must alaways happen while traveling this time it was small but big enough to be bothersome the airline lost my bag YIPEE!!!! well then I left the airport and got to my Aunt's place just in time for the annual Turkey dance... which my mother performs every year for us.... Now for those of you who do not know The turkey dance is performed after the turkey has been cleaned and before it has been stuffed. what happens is usually there is some kind of music playing and the turkey magicaly jumps up and starts to dance for everyone Its quite entertaning and for some reason we always video tape it but anyway I got to start the day off right with a little laugh.... then my brother made a rub and put it on the turkey and stuffed it... YES I did say my brother did the turkey we all love to cook he just wanted to try something different this year and in the end it was very good. HMMM well after getting the cooking started several of us went to go see a movie Ice Harvest. It was very interesting... I liked it but my dad thought it was not much of a thanksgiving movie, which it probably wasn't but whatever....... after the movie it was time for dinner I got home in time to help with the gravy which is always fun I think someday we should make a roux but whatever its tradition to make the gravy the we do. right after that the people all started ariving all the kids like 12 of em they are always fun to play with and it makes it worth it. well after the mass gorging... everybody split up and started to do what we do after the dinner which is running after the children watching videos, playing nething that children want. alright not everyone does that but I know I do. we gt people watching football. a group of people always talking about Mcdonalds and how the economy is and then someone is always looking for the past videos of thanksgivings because we always tape them. well at like 9 several of the children left to go home and then the remander of them sat down and we colored and made stainglass I had fun. well after that we all sat in the living room and started going over sales that would be going on the next day and figure out what time we would be leaving for the shoping in the morning. there was a group leaving at 4:30 and one at 6:45 I was in the 6:45 one I get up at 4 every day no need to get up like that again. at least till work... but well I got up and started to get ready but OHHHH yea I didn'y have my luggage so at least I am ssmart enough to put some stuff in my other bag so I at least had another shirt and some underwear the rest I got while we were out shoping. well I must say I got some christmas shoping done and I hope that those of you who I bought for like what I got you. To be cont. ... at a later date

new picture

Well I went shoping the other day for some new clothing got some great stuff had an interesting experince at kay's jewlers with Jessica... but while we were in hot topic jess tried this coat on and I got a picture... thought I'd post it up here for those of you who care... I am sure any comments are welcome I know I would love em.... oh yea my computer is really crazy but oh well... I'll write some more after the holiday's talk to you soon and please leave some comments

OHHHHH but for those of you who are my texting buddies I will have my phone with me and expect to hear something from you sometime a HI is fine.... Heck I might even call one or two of you to see how things are and tell you all about Oklahoma for thanksgiving.... one more thing Heather is there any way we are gonna be able to go to the OSU/OU game I sure would love to tell a few people here that I got to go.... anyway thats probably enough for now I'll talk to you later keep it real and may you all have Blessed Days....
