What’s that smell? mmmm
Time is just flying by and I can’t seem to keep up sometimes. January 6th I passed my credentialing test and it is now almost mid March and though the jobs aren’t so scares it takes about an hour to fill out one application. With these long apps it makes it hard to just get my name out there for the world to see. I can’t wait thought till I am really making so money with out putting in fifty five hour weeks. So yeah I have been working my tail off and it is very nice to have a little bit of cash put away for a rainy day (or a new smoker grill and soon a 7mil Remington rifle).
I am so far behind in keeping up with my writing. I am thinking maybe I should get a smaller laptop to take to work and such so when I get a few I can write a little. I got to get that past the lovely wife first… I love you Punkin. Reagan is doing great, Macey is really coming along with talking and I love my wife. We got a smoker this past week and may be getting a pig tomorrow to raise and then EAT. Sarah and I are riding “grip sticks” on a regular basis now and my belly is shrinking just a tad.
So I have made it up to 220lbs and am trying to get back down under 200 but we will see how that goes with the new cooker. *that reminds me, I’ll add to the cooker part later* So yeah I am almost back on just water and lemon and when I do have soda it is the new Coke Zero stuff. To be frank; Coke Zero isn’t that bad and it is close to the same taste as regular Coke. So the Grip stick thing are pretty fun; kind of like surfing on the street (if you do it right) really its not that hard to get the hang of and it will burn the heck out of your abs if you ride it often. I’ll give it a few more weeks and try to stick with the better eating and see what happens with the weight.
Tomorrow Jonny Suburban and I may be going to pick up a live pig from somewhere in Lake Land. I got a smoker this week and can’t wait to raise me up a little pig into something big enough to fill two smokers. Yesterday for Sarah’s birthday I smoked up some chicken and Bush’s grilling beans; I put the beans in a casserole dish and stuck it right in the smoker with the chicken and holy crap did they turn out great!! The chicken was so juicy and the skin was nice and crisp and not soggy at all. Oh yeah we had some corn on the cob too. We didn’t get the juiciest corn so it wasn’t perfect but it was still as mouth watering as all the rest of the food in the greatest cooking apparatus ever invented. Tonight Jonny and I smoked some country style ribs and some chicken drumsticks and again they were fricken awesome. I needed to smoke some more because all the meat at Sarah’s birthday party was eaten up and I needed some food for work this week so I am not spending more money than I have too.
I am saving up for a rifle and I hope to have it by next paycheck now. I am getting a 7 millimeter magnum; Remington long rifle with scope. I am going to spend this summer at the shooting range getting in practice so next hunting season I will be ready to take my first wild game. Hog I hope. Don’t worry I will be eating what I kill and will be thankful for every piece of meat I harvest. Some will be smoked, some will be grilled and some will be crock potted. After I get the hang of the rifle I am going to try using a bow too.
Speaking of crock pots! Well almost every year I toss my old crock pot and but a new one. Over the years I have spent a small fortune on these great little cookers. I toss them out when they crack and leak all over my counter; only because I was never told about how I could prevent this messy predicament. I just found out that I can buy crock pot liners and amazingly I can keep on cooking even with a cracked leaking pot. I can not believe that after all these years now no one ever told me about them. I only learned of these liners when I received a catalog for some restaurant equipment and packaging stuff. Now I can cook on and when this new pot cracks I know that I can just pick up some liners and get right back to cookingJ
Reagan has been seeming to be doing great and has a new neurologist now.
Yeah his first neuro was a “pardon my French” a Fucking Douche! He wanted to take my son off his better of the two meds and up the med that could limit his learning potential if left on it to long. The guy didn’t even know why Reagan was there to see him except that Reagan had a seizure. He didn’t know why or even that my son was in All Childrens. I wanted to knock the guy the hell out. The new place he is going to is like an hour drive but is way the hell worth it to know that my boy is getting better care. When we went to the new Neurologist they though I had misunderstood what the first guy was saying until I showed them the prescription and the doctor was truly stunned that another doctor would have set a kid on such a terrible path. On a happier note Reagan is starting to roll over now and loves to try to stand and look out the window. He giggles when I tell him nonsense jokes and babble back at him. This kid is just so great he makes me want to cry everyday I know he made it through the meningitis.
Macey is such a little girl now. She is growing so fast now and is getting such a
personality. She will be carrying on full conversations here anytime soon. Her imagination is amazing for being so young too; she will play will her little toys and you can just tell that her mind ins going a million miles an hour as she creates stories for her toys to play out. When PBS is on she I glued to the “tvt” until regular shows come on and then it is back to playing. She just love company its like she is a little socialite. I can’t wait until she is taking and I can put up a video of her just babbling on and on. She is getting along with Reagan more and more every day. It is cool that she is adapting well with everything.
It would be nice to pick up one of those mini laptops to travel a little easier than this one. Just so I have something to do my writing on and look for free pigs to bring home and feed for a week then eat them.
Well it is getting late and I want to get in some reading while the house is still quiet. I am on the third book of the Percy Jackson series then I can finish my “Lost Hero” book that has been put on hold half way through. “I wanted to know what some of the characters were talking about and the only way was to read the Percy Jackson series.
Well good night Arianna Shirk
