The little guy is up first at 6:15 and then the oldest has two 20 minute games as part of a 3 game round robin to determine the championship in his age group.<\/p>\n<p>Before I get into the activities of yesterday, today is post #23o meaning there&#8217;s 135 days left in the year! Soon the holidays will be here and then we&#8217;ll be talking about Spring fast approaching, WOW.<\/p>\n<p>Mom worked until 3pm yesterday and I had to stick the boys in front of the tv for most of the morning while I had calls with NY and CA. They say we get our car back this morning but we&#8217;ve been told that before. We&#8217;re still waiting on a check from the insurance company as even though the other drivers company has admitted fault, they&#8217;re now disputing the extent of the damage. Typical big company bull, they&#8217;re quick to take your money but when it comes time for them to pay out, they&#8217;ll fight tooth and nail not to meet their obligation.<\/p>\n<p>It seems cooler out this morning, falls coming fast. Mom did get the boys to the pool for an afternoon swim when she got home from work. We&#8217;re still eating leftover ribs from Sunday night when everyone cancelled on dinner. Hopefully we&#8217;ll run out soon.<\/p>\n<p>We stopped by Grandma&#8217;s for a few minutes and she called later commenting how much the little guy has grown. You know how when you don&#8217;t see someone all the time and it&#8217;s more obvious if they&#8217;ve grown, well that&#8217;s what my Mom noticed. We too see it and he has had a growth spurt this summer. Both boys have super long legs. I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ll need to buy some new jeans and shoes in the next few months.<\/p>\n<p>Obama continues his &#8220;everybody&#8217;s at fault but me&#8221; bus tour and now he&#8217;s headed off to Martha&#8217;s Vineyard for a 10 day vacation. I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;ve ever had a 10 day vacation. Personally I think all of Congress should be back at work along with the President. He&#8217;s just so arrogant, I can&#8217;t even stand to watch the man on tv anymore. Sorry to all you Obama supporters but even you have to be questioning if this man&#8217;s in over his head. I mean how long can you blame George Bush? Sooner or later you have to take responsibility for what&#8217;s going on. I&#8217;ll stop now as I feel myself going into a 2000 word rant.<\/p>\n<p>I hear the misses stirring, maybe she can take over and write some. Whoops, it was the little guy who just came down. Mom&#8217;s still sleeping. I have a call with a potential employee in CA in about 10 minutes so time to wrap it up. I just went up and roused the misses so I&#8217;ll ask her to take over and write a bit. I&#8217;m sure most of you would love to hear from her. Have a great day and take care of yourself. Here&#8217;s Mom,<\/p>\n<p>Good Morning. The youngest boy is sitting here next to me and I think he should still be sleeping by the tone of his voice. Yikes, it could be an interesting morning.<\/p>\n<p>The makeover plan today is as follows&#8230;exercise the dogs, the boys and myself&#8230;hang and put away the four folded loads of laundry, clean the bathrooms, dust and chase dog hair with the vacuum. After all that fun I am headed to L.O.L.&#8217;s to clean for 2 hours.<\/p>\n<p>I promised to take the kiddos to the pool some time today since the storm clouds moved in quite rapidly yesterday and spoiled their fun. \u00c2\u00a0The youngest wants to have a sleepover at our house with one of his friends tonight. I am on the fence because I work tomorrow morning at 8:15 and this little friend has a voice that may actually be louder than both of our boys put together. This presents a problem for the Mister since quiet is what he needs for his a.m. call. \u00c2\u00a0I&#8217;ll try to put off the sleepover until Friday night..wish me luck and a backbone in my negotiations with the 7yr old.<\/p>\n<p>Well off to start the day and complete the makeover tasks&#8230;if the tasks are in print they must get done!!!<\/p>\n<p>God bless to all,<\/p>\n<p>LLF<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is the last day of the summer football season and both boys have their Super Bowl games.
