I'm Sorry

I'm sorry! I am sorry for yelling at you Captain. I am sorry for showing K doing the sexy back. I am sorry S, for not getting the pics you may have wanted of the couch. I am sorry that I have a sense of humor, and took close up pictures of the couch, like where I sit my ass.

Captain: I should have read your blog, and I forget to read comments to see responses sometimes. I would love to get the book from you and will set something up soon.

We are now off to RW to look at couches and maybe pick one out today. Wish us luck!!

The Couch...............S

S, here is the couch.



This is the spot where I put my ass.

This is where my ass and back go.

This is my wife picking her nose and a pic of the rest of the couch.



And here is the pic that I suppose you want. If you want any others let me know and I will try and get what you want.

Greg

OH!!..................................CAPTAIN??

OhCaptain.......are you still there? Do you not comment because you hate me? Do you not want me to take photos? Do you not want to help me develop and take nice, yet interesting pictures? Do you and your wife hate us because you did not call us to go bowling, drink beer, and have all around fun with the family last night??

Ok maybe I am being to hard on you guys about last night, but your lovely wife did say she was going to call us. She must have been to drunk.........wilst having all that fun and laughs.

This is no way to get me to play poker at your house.

Greg

P.S. I am not mad or upset as it may sound in the post above. Sure would have been fun to go and bowl and drink.........and be merry.

One more post

So I was sitting here, looking at my blog and I got to thinking. My posts, blog, and overall rantings are usually never about the badge. Nor are they usually about law enforcement, or law enforcement related. It is mostly family that I blog about, and about my life. While I started this blog to get a release from work, and bitch a little, it has turned out to be something different. It has been something that I can vent about life, show off my little family, and talk about various other unimportant things.

This is what I am thinking. Because my blog is not about the badge or anything badge-like, I am thinking about changing the name of my blog. I have thought of a few and will put them up for a vote. If you have one that is funny or "fits" that is not on the list feel free to throw it in the ring. So here they are.

1. Team Awesome.

2. K's Baby Daddy

3. Life of a MN Dad

4. Mr. Huge

Maybe they are ok, maybe I should just stick with the one I have already, but it was just a thought.

Any ideas???? Opinions????

And again

Some cool pictures that I took with the new camera that I thought I would share with you.


This was a birdhouse that was out side E's daycare. I thought it was neat.


This was a lonely icicle hanging on the playhouse at daycare. Again kinda neat.


This is our neighbor's car. I kept telling him if they didn't move it, the car would get plowed in. He didn't listen and now it will be April before he can drive this thing again.



And this is a church I saw on the way home from the cities yesterday. We were waiting at a light to turn into a Caribou for a coffee.

After talking with Timbo the last couple of days, I have decided to start taking more pictures and see what I come up with. I have a new, pretty nice camera that I got for christmas. Short of spending $500 on a SLR, I think we made a good choice. So I am going to give it a go and would really like you guys to let me know what you think! Hmmmm, if it goes well maybe I will start a photo blog like the Timbo has.

Funerals are sad...........

............but not as sad as seeing the ones you love, sad. Yesterday we said goodbye to K's grandma and it was a long day. I kept getting asked if I was doing ok, and I always said yes. The truth is, I didn't know grandma that well. It wasn't long after K and I started living together that grandma started to have problems, and eventually went into the seminary home. We went to see her, although not as often as we probably should have. I really did like her, and I think she genuinely liked me. In the end though, her death did not affect me like it did K and the rest of the family. What was hard yesterday was to see K, and KT, and others in the family shedding their tears of sorrow. It hurt more than anything to see ones I care about be filled with so much sorrow.


I think there were some good things to come out of this though. We got to see family that has not been here in a long time (even if the circumstances were not the best). I somehow feel closer to some of K's cousins, like Meg and Ash and K, that I don't get to spend much time with. I hope they can make it up more often, because I think they are wonderful and fun people. I would love to get to know them better.


Because grandpa is a vet, grandma was buried at the federal cemetery in Ft. Snelling up in the cities. Death is never fun, but while we were waiting I had to take some pics. I have never been here before and had only observed the cemetery from the road. I was overwhelmed by the number of people who are spending their days in this hallowed place now.






And this was not even a good start to show you how many graves are here. There are SOOOOO many more. It makes it even more sad to think of all the people that have come to this same place, for the same reasons that we did.

We will miss grandma. She was a firecracker of a lady and was very loved.

WOW NEW YEAR'S!!

So New Year's.......you kicked my ass once more.

Last minute last night I get a call from K who was on her way home, and was told we had free babysitting and we were going out for New Year's with all her family. We had a few laughs, a few drinks, more laughs, and finally some delicious food and more drinks. We got home a little before midnight and by the time we got ourselves and E inside, we had missed the fatefull hour.

I paid for this fun 3 fold today at work. I got about 4 hours of sleep last night and then went to work this morning. I was fighting falling asleep all day and I cannot believe that I am still awake.

So with that in mind I am going to wrap this up. If you would like to see the fun pics of our outing last night, please go to K's blog!! Night all!
