After being semi-retired for the past six months, this will be a strange week.  Talon and I have tickets to a Disturbed, Three Days Grace and SevenDust concert.  Bought the tickets a few months back and the day will finally be here on Tuesday!  Then on Thrusday I got to a Pre-Op appointment for the […]

Stacia got a text from the Bishop that he wanted to see us. Went in and I was released after five years of being a Sunday School Teacher.  Had a couple of the kids mention that I was “ditching” them.  Nope just got released and didn’t ask to be released.  Nice to know that at […]

If you read the “Pitty the Fool” post, you will know that I’ve been giving Talon a bad time about Mr. T. for literally years.  I thought of another way to mess with him.  I downloaded a clip of Mr. T saying “I pitty the fool” and added some music to it and added it […]

Before we sold HobbyTown, I was doing a weekly game night with some  childhood friends, Alan Braithwaite, Dave Clemons and an employee from the store Phil Harrison. When we sold the store, I was able to convice them to move to our house.  It has been a lot of fun and something that I look […]

I applied to WinCo Foods for a Manager in Training Position a couple of weeks back.  Last Thursday I got a Call, Voice Mail and Text that they wanted to talk to me.  So I gave her a call and she gave me a pre-interview interview.  (with Stacia and Talon both listening in)  Apparently, I […]

Since we sold the store, I decided it was time to switch from “gainfully unemployeed” to “gainfully employed”. So I started putting in a few applications. I ended up getting a call back from WinCo foods and Bass Pro Shop / Cabelas out of the few locations that I applied for, but only got scheduled […]

When we owned HobbyTown we would go to the HobbyTown Convention in Lincoln Nebraska.  Anyway, my son Talon and I were walking around on the floor of the convention and passed the PlayMobile booth.  After talking to the Sales rep for a little bit he decided to give me a Mr. T. key chain Lego […]

Since we are Gainfully unemployeed, I have been 3D printing Multiboard tiles that are similar to peg board but more flexable.  So far I’ve put it up in the garage, game room (or my den if you prefer) and under the stairs.  It will make it a lot nicer to find stuff. It will probably […]

My brother Tracy has taken it upon himself to get Mom’s journals and transcribe them for the family.  (If you ever read this Tracy, it is greatly appreciated!)  There was one entry where Mom and I took a trip to Idaho Falls from Boise.  She mentioned that we talked the whole way and that she […]

I was in charge of teaching Sunday School today. I had been working on and off during the past few weeks.  I kinda feel like it was more or less a disaster. I think I need to concentrate on trying to find more interactive things to do with the class. While I’m sitting here typing […]
