Tuesday, November 8, 2005Life in Wendover (continued)Here is a picture of the golf course and driving range. My son and I walk past it nearly every day on our way to the post office. They don't deliver the mail out here. You have to go to the post office to pick it up. My son and I are becoming a part of the city, it would seem. People come up to me...

No more puking, so far today. He's having a nap now to make up for lost sleep last night. I cancelled this morning's karate class because Trey usually goes with me. My wife and I have scheduled...

That's the first clue right there because he never stops moving. He's on the go from the time he gets up until you force him to bed. His fever is pretty high so we are keeping a close eye on...

I say that I suppose because with the new guidelines, I'm not really sure where I fall. If you go by my ancestry, I would say that I'm probably English/American. If you go back further, I'm probably Dutch/American. Further? Middle-eastern/American.... Sign in to see full entry.Thursday, November 3, 2005We Recycle. Do you?(This is another picture taken from in front of my house, facing the opposite direction.) I was having dinner with a couple of other supervisors last week and we were discussing a recently terminated emloyee. He had decided on several occasions not to come to work and didn't bother to call to say...

People say that with the railroad being where it is, it's unlikely anyone will build on the south side of my house. Nice. Back to "Life in Wendover" and back to Smith's where I can tell you why I mentioned it before. Sunday, we went...

Let me first explain that my wife has wanted to buy him Winnie the Pooh stuff since the beginning of his life. Let me add that I have not. "Look at these shoes. Aren't they cute?"...

I guess I should be lucky that there is a grocery store here but let me relate this bit of oddity to you. I have an 18 month old son. He rides in the seat secton of the cart when we shop. It's either that or play take-away with the little octopus. =) Smith's has a...

Guessing what the insurance companies said is a no-brainer. Both of them said it was the other person's fault. One said that my wife was the only moving vehicle and that's the end. The other said...

I guess the residents complained about it and their are commercial vehicle parking laws so he usually parks his truck in the desert. I live on the edge at sort of a dead end but where the pavement ends, a dirt road begins. 3... Sign in to see full entry. |
