Pictures, Late

This past weekend I got to drill through a cinder block. Not quite as exciting as drilling into a rock, but still interesting.

November 10 marked the anniversary of the first time my Dad held me. He'd returned from Viet Nam (his second tour there) and still hadn't gotten to see pictures of me. So, in a way, I was unreal to him until the day he held me. I think it's pretty cool that it is also the USMC birthday.

I don't have anything stellar to write today, so I'll be wishing you all a bright day, even through the rain.

Keeping quiet...

What can I say about this week? There are moments when a frenzied excitement comes over me for an event coming up next week. Then there are other moments when I'm almost terrified about the same thing. Crazy, huh? What I've been doing is staying pretty busy so I don't think about it very much. It helps a little. And I can't tell you guys what it is just yet. And so, I stay off the internet a lot.

This weekend was very nice. I had 3 days off the daycare and enjoyed each of them. Between good movies, good food, time with family, and some honest labor, I had a pretty good time. And now I can say that I have used a Sawzall! Yes, it was pretty weird feeling to do so. Still, that's one more power tool. Granted, I only made 2 cuts with it so I'm not able to say that I am experienced with it, but it was still pretty cool.

Even though this is very brief, I'm going to end it here. I just deleted 3 paragraphs that were more like a rambling than anything else. I do hope you all have a wonderful week!
