I know I know I know. Its been a week an some and I have not posted. I have attempted to but I had one of those miscommunication sessions between my fingers my mouth and my brain, and it lasted about a week, then I was angry, and depressed and we all know how those posts look. So here it is,.... Sunday, December first, and 9 days before I turn 23. Whoo hoo I think. I dont know how to be excited about my birthday anymore. The days of surprise and happy gift getting are gone. Even my parents arent into it. My wife feels like because I make all the money, she cant surprise me with anything and I dont have a whole lot of friends who are willing to spend the occasion with me. Boo freakin whoo. But there is a hockey game on the 3rd that I am going to attempt to go to and even though we have no money to get beer, we are sitting 2 level above where we sat last year, and we cant park where we did last year, my dad gave us the tickets and told us he would watch the kids even though mom has a lesson that night so we are going to go. I will be fun. There is nothing like the atmosphere of a hockey game. I was just spoiled because I sat 8 rows off the glass at every game I have been to so far. Again Boo freakin hoo. But the week went ok, my grand parents came into town, my great aunt was supposed to come into town but she couldn't make it cause her husband had a mild heart attack. Its sad cause he is pretty cool. But I didn't get some of my fathers belated birthday cake. My grandmother makes it and it only comes once a year and only for my dad. This cake is total bliss. 15 layers of a crumb cake with raspberry and chocolate between and a chocolate moose frosting. It is divine. Ariel got her fix(s) with the potato salad that she loves (not the crap that is made here in america) and wine. So all in all we stuffed our faces for a few days. I made a few sales and have a couple more really good potentials for next week. YAY money is good. Im not usually a salesman but it seems that since I got the semi raise that gives me 1% of the gross monthly sales total, I have had a lot more interest in making the business more money. Hopefully soon it will pay off, I know December is looking REALLY REALLY good so far. We got this SLI job that will pay us probably in the area of 30,000 and Its only the first. Not to mention I may or may not get a christmas bonus. I am hoping for the may part cause money is always a VERY good thing around this time of year. Anyhow That is all for now. Im going to put my baby bubble butt to bed before it reverts back to fetal size.
