Whew!! I am finally home from a four day trip to Boise with the track and field team. I enjoyed watching our kids compete but the overall experience of watching track and field is as exciting as watching cars rust. BORRRRRRRRINNNNGGGG. It appears that I am finished for this school year. I now have a full time job ducking and dodging Cheryl and all her honey do projects.
My friend Foam posted 10 things about herself that were interesting and eye opening. I thought I would give it a try about my 10 things.
1. Turn Offs:
Loud talking people, male or female.
People who seem to have no concern about their appearance.
Uncourteous people in stores and etc.
2. Turn On or Pleasing To Me:
Soft Music.
Mountains in the springtime.
Cheryl's laughter.
3. I love to tease and it gets me into lots of trouble.
4. I enjoy large equipment like trucks, buses, trains, airplanes. No boats though since I am slightly afraid of water.
5. I enjoy most animals. I really like horses, cattle, dogs (friendly ones), cats and the list continues with deer, elk, moose, bear, mountain lions. Just about any mountain animals in the northwest.
6. I am not romantic. I don't need a special day or time to get my wife a gift. Everyday she is a gift to me and she is my best friend as well as my lover and wife.
7. I like creating friendships to a point. I truly dislike it when others start to take advantage of our friendship. I like to flirt but if anyone truly made an advance on me I would run like a scared jackrabbit. However on the down side I have a very hard time trusting anyone. I keep wondering when they will do me dirt.
8. I do like guns and using them. Being raised with one was as natural as drinking water.
9. I enjoy movies and even an occasional chick flick.
10. I love living in Idaho with it's beautiful mountains, streams, fairly clean air and the freedoms I get to enjoy. I love the USA and am proud to be called an American.
So there you have a little something about me. I guess I should include that I am boring, boring, boring.
Guess I better close and get something done today. Cheryl is off to the cannery where she is volunteering her time making chicken soup for those who struggle. I just took a percocet to help with the pain and now am feeling sleepy so that will be the first project I will tackle.
Jeralee, I don't know if you read my drivel or not but we have Russian records that we are indexing and could sure use anyone who can read them. Hint, hint, hint.
Have a nice day everyone.

I love what you say about your wife. After that many years, to love her laughter, is priceless.
yes, like pam i've always really enjoyed how you speak about cheryl ..
and i love your teasing, the harmless flirting ..
and like you i don't like it when i feel that 'friends' want to take advantage of me.
sooooooooooooo .....
can you lend me some needle nose pliers ..???
i've misplaced mine it seems ..
Yes, I do read your drivel on occasion. ;-)
As for the Russian, are they in the Cyrillic alphabet?
We have such a slow connection - dial up - that I haven't done any indexing yet. I tried once and it was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too slow to pull things up.
Geoff is also good at reading Russian, but of course he is gearing up for a wedding next month. Even still, he would be good also. Hope you and Cheryl are able to come up for it. It would be good to see both of you and give you some ribbing. ;-)
If you want to copy and paste or send a file, I could translate them I think.
Glad my daughter keeps you updated. Intersting facts about you. The way you kid my sister and myself I wonder some times. Of course your coming to the wedding.
