So I have been into the Johnny Cash rendition of the song ‘Hurt’ originally done by the Band Nine Inch Nails.  It is an interesting contrast to me.  The Nine Inch Nails version is basically about a younger man whose life is spiraling out of control.  The Johnny cash version is about someone nearing the […]

Feels like a Saturday since we had game night on a Wednesday. 🙂  I’m looking forward to seeing Alton Brown this evening.  I’m not sure what to expect, since he is most famous for his show Good Eats.  Culinary evening entertainment without a meal.  Should be interesting.  I’ll do an update with how we liked […]

It is great to have Stacia back from Garden Valley after being away for two days helping Roscoe and Jeanine get ready for a garage sell this summer. I guess they came back with a load of stuff for Desert Industries and then some pictures that Jeanine painted for Pam, John and their kids. Markee […]

Stacia’s sister, RaShawn, came to visit and part of the visit included going up to Roscoe and Jeanine’s house and helping them to clear out the attic, garage and house in preperation for a garage sell this spring. It has been strange here on the home front without Stacia here. On the plus side, I […]

Tuesday was the first day that I’ve spent on the sales floor at BassPro Shop/Cabelas at the gun counter.  I spent quite a bit of the shift telling people that I didn’t know because it was my first day on the sales floor, but I would try to get someone to help.  After a day […]

I’ve been having the prompting that I needed to contact Layne.  So I called this morning and it rang about 8 times and then disconnected.  My initial thought was, “What did I do that Layne won’t even take my call?” Well, I forget that other people have to work and Layne was in a meeting. […]

The second day of the Roto-Rooterin’ has been going OK.  The urine is now Strawberry lemonaide and part of the time just Lemonaide. 🙂 I’m sure looking forward to getting rid of the catheter!  What a pain.  Probably tomorrow I can get rid of the bag and just do the plug which will make me […]

Not to get to graphic, but I have an enlarged prostate that has been causing me to have to get up frequently to pee.  So after a couple of times where I had blood in my urine, I had one occation where the clots in my pee clogged up my urethra and I ended up […]

My first day of orientation was yesterday.  It was both interesting and boring.  We first did a presentation where the HR lady, Kylie, told us about the company and some of the policies.  After that we did a brief store tour.  For being short, she walked pretty fast and then didn’t talk back to us […]

Well, I was supposed to start at Bass Pro Shop / Cabelas, but I got an e-mail from the HR lady putting it off until Friday. It worked out better for me since I had an appointment to get ready for my procedure/surgery next Thursday.  Everything went well there and it looks like we are […]
