DADism's

In commemoration of Dad's birthday I feel we should kinda roast him. I have been thinking of some Dad type sayings...like... "If all your friends were jumping off a bridge, would you?""I'm gonna cloud up and rain all over you."
Now, as we all know Dad travels a lot. He tells me of these travels when He visits and he likes to use the word "Gal". The Gal on the phone making reservations or the Gal at the checkout or the Gal at the ticket booth or the Gal at the car rental place or the Gal at the restaurant or the Gal at customer service. It seems that Dad never talks to any guys.. Myrna, maybe you should start worrying! What other Dadism's can we think of... OH, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!

Laundry

Yes Tyler is folding laundry, Yeah!

Positive Thinking

"It is not the goal but the way there that matters, and the harder the way the more worthwhile the journey."

I thought about this for awhile agreeing then disagreeing. Depending on the situation I would just like to get there (like getting the grocery shopping done) and other times make it harder then hell to get there it. I think in my past I should have just chosen to get there instead of being stubborn etc... etc... but I don't regret any of it, I learned a lot and gained a lot of knowledge. When Jamie had cancer I thought life is over as we know it, I chose at that time to make the journey worthwhile and it was, it made us closer we still had fun, learned a lot more about each other. I fear to think what would have happened if we didn't do it in a positive way. Last summer when Tyler left.. well I won't even go into that except it was a journey it was hard but Tyler, Jamie and I have become closer then we were. So making the journey harder is worthwhile, cuz you always learn a lot more than when you started, it makes you check your gut and think of all and everything involved, it can make you closer to people you wish you could be closer too and if you let it, it can be a blast. Maybe it is just the Buddhist thing but I am grateful for all the crap I have gone through. Weird huh? must be that Nirvana thing.

Love to all

Uuumm Wow.

Hi!! It's been a while. Just want everybody to know we are still alive. Well, I am, anyway. At this moment (10:50pm) Bruno is up in Pine City on Lake Pokegema... ice fishing. By himself. And Jackson the Dog. He has a portable fish house, and the Durango. His plan is to stay all night and fish. Sounds like Jackson has gone between the truck and the portable. After playing all afternoon on the lake. Bruno brought many blankets, Jackson's vest and his sleeping bag. If he gets tired he will just sleep in the Durango. Maybe run it every once in a while, but he is prepared as far as warmth goes. So back to my original first sentence... I am still alive and at this point I assume my husband is. I talked to him about an hour ago. Thanks to Joda for putting up that horrible picture. Bruno would like to know: Where are all the pictures of him playing Santa at the Johnston Xmas Party!? C'mon, somebody's got to have something!!
Ok, well enough for now, I could go on for hours. (yeah whatever, quit with the comments)
