Choices

Oct-24-2007 By Family Man

I have been wanting to blog about so many things lately. But each time as I get a posting ready, I change some of my thoughts. So many times it’s not even that I have nothing to post, I have too much to post. When I started blogging it was to find that “extra” income. My endeavors in that arena have not yet been successful, mostly because of me. It all comes down to time and choices sometimes.
I think most things in life can be broken down to the choices we make. While my debt both the debt that was necessary, and that part of it which isn’t were choices. Choices I made. And hindsight is 20/20, and some of those choices I may not have made, but most I would have.
The other choice we always have is choosing to learn from our choices. And that is what can separate people who grow and those that do not.
I think of often stop and let some of my choices depress me. Yet they never should. They have brought me to where I am today. Even in debt I have family, great children, and a great wife. Even my dogs are pretty great, except when they are misbehaving.
So my thought for today is all about choices. We all have good days and bad days, but I hope you all chose to make this a good one.

I need a vaction

Oct-23-2007 By Family Man

I do. Really. I have an excellent blog post for today, but unfortunatly it is going to have to hold until tomorrow, while I deal with a work emergency. See you all tomorrow.

So my days of sleeping in, ever, seem to be completely over. Once the baby comes I have the sinking feeling I will get much of the morning duty, which I seem to have a lot of now with the puppy. I get up at 5:20 AM every day during the week so many times I am somewhat awake when the puppy starts barking. Of course after a walk a run and some food it’s ready to go back to bed, and I am now wide awake.

It is kind of nice though to have some time to do my own thing. So this morning I am doing keyword research. I have been searching for a new spotlight blog. I had hoped to have one posted last week, but I ran out of time.

Have a great Sunday!

Cleanup

Oct-17-2007 By Family Man

As you can see I am working on cleaning up this blog. I should be back to full speed either later today or tomorrow.

My wife had said all along she knew what the baby would be. We went yesterday for the 20 week ultrasound, and only hoped the baby would be cooperative. Not only was it cooperative, but it wanted to make sure we knew what to look for when buying baby items. So as the graphic here shows he made sure we knew he was a boy. As soon as the technician started he moved into a position that eliminated all doubt as to his gender. All other checks showed a very healthy little baby boy. The technician was able to show us a bit more of his facial structure. He defiantly has mom’s small pug nose, but overall seems to have a long facial structure, more like dad. And he has dad’s long fingers, and long legs. And large feet, of which we aren’t sure where those came from. So my wife left feeling vindicated, that mothers intuition should never be doubted. She has been telling me for months that it would be a boy.
The older brothers were not as excited about the prospect of a little brother as both were hoping for a sister. One thought a little sister would be great so they could play “tea party”, and the other because he fears a little brother would want to play with “his stuff”. Neither quite grasp the large age difference which will preclude much of those concerns.
Mom initially thought a girl would be fun because there are so many more cute girl items out there, and the prospect of another boy limited her design options some, but after we visited the store, and she found a boy’s outfit, she forgot all about it, and was excited. I however keep looking at the small hat, and struggle with the idea of bringing something that small home.
The only other two concerns my wife had have also been mitigated. The placenta has migrated very well, and the radiologist explained that her placenta previa has resolved itself, and have heart defects in the males in her family, she was quite happy to see that the hear looks and sounds perfect thus far.
In other news I have been working on the template for this blog, and hope to have most of the changes an de-cluttering ready for this week.
