Grandma Issa Hits The Big Screen -- kind of...

We just got a call today that Grandma Issa was interviewed on a Jacksonville news station regarding her schools new Walk Across America program. At first I thought, "oh no, my Mom", "what did she say?" Well, all is well, you did great Mom!

Adults Shouldn't Sit on a Toddler Bed

Sorry ya'll it's been a while since the last post. We've been pretty busy lately. I have been working on a closing - praise the Lord, and we also had a conference at our church that took a lot of out time and preparation. All that is behind us now and life has calmed down somewhat. I will take more closings to work on though! Ha!

The lastest news in our castle is that Baby O has a new bed. Hot Wife and Dede found her last week hiking her leg over the rails of her crib after a nap last week. Not a good fall for a young child, right? So, the next day we purchased a toddler bed. Now please understand that I didn't know what a toddler bed was until last week, but it's a little mini-bed. So cute and pratical.

Now she can fall, but it's only about eight inches. She's done worse already!

Hot Wife still has chronic joint pain and no solutions. Her latest idea was that her body is too acidic so I bought some pH test strips. Do you know what you do with those things? Pee on them. I'm glad I'm a guy it's much easier if curisioty should catch your attention to know your pH. The test strips came back slightly elevated, but apparently not enough for concern. Back to the drawing board. Argh!

Like I said, I've been happily going nuts with a closing (see link to my business blog). Now I guess it's on to tax prep. Since I was not blessed with a bounty of harvest if you will, there is a silver-lining, and Mr. Tax Man ought to be pretty good to us this year. Yea for tax returns!

We don't know who did it, but it wasn't Hot Wife or PopPop

I Caught You A Delicious Trout -- On Your Birthday

Happy birthday Hot Wife, I went trout fishing. Wow! What a great wife, while on vacation (on her birthday) she didn't mind me waking up early to go trout fishing. Woo Hoo! (there you go Keeeiiiitttthhhh)

Bert Bert, Tacy, Pop Pop, and I did pretty will and ended up with about 50 or so rainbows. That pretty good catching for around four hours of fishing!

Back to Hot Wife's birthday. The highlight meal of the day was probably the Pancake Pantry. Even though she ate buckwheat pancakes, I think she really enjoyed them. Well, I take that back, the staff at Fudruckers did wish her AKA Nicky Babe a very happy birthday. Then Mrs. Brown Teeth, came by to say that she was sorry for embarrassing her. Hot Wife was a good sport and even let Bert Bert serenade her with the Rick and Bubba anniversary song, but birthday rendition.

So Long - Mahalo Nui Loa

The inventor of the Hawaiian shirt died. Alfred Shaheen pioneered the "aloha shirt" industry by turning it from a small local trade to a world-wide icon of pop culture. Really... Did I just say that?

Anyway, where would we be without this guy. Whether you think, hum, "that guy must be pretty confident wearing such a hideous shirt", or "wow, here comes the funny guy", our world would be less interesting without those crazy shirts.
