• 15 Bean Soup

  1 package 15 bean soup (Yes there’s 15 different beans in this world )
  1 tbs Kosher salt ( salt to taste )
  1 tsp black pepper
  1/2 large onion
  4 cloves garlic
  1/2 - 1 lb diced ham

  * Cover beans with water plus about 2-3 inches above. You may need to add more water as they cook, but never add more than a cup of water at a time. Bring beans to a good boil and continue for a hour or so. STIR OFTEN If they try to stick to the bottom reduce heat Add rest of stuff except for ham. Keep a small boil going for another hour or two until beans are starting to get tender, keep water about 1-2 inches above beans once they start getting tender. Add ham and simmer until soup starts to thicken.

  * Fry ya some taters and a pan of cornbread and serve!

• Old school download

  I was surfing the web and stumbled across this picture of Teri Hatcher from the Superman series. This was the 1st picture I ever downloaded from the internet (AOL) back in the day. If I remember correctly, it took something like 40 minutes to download. Whew! The great speeds we had!

  

  I had to share this. And yes, it does mean I’m an old fart

• Snow

  Yes sir! It’s snowing! And it’s snowing hard! The kids have mixed emotions, Little Man is happier than a fat lady with bucket of fried chicken! The younger teens are not so excited If there’s no school tomorrow then the dance will be postponed til March. I guess that’s not a good thing. But as a father of 3 teen daughters, plus a couple of boys, I don’t mind them missing a night with hormone raged boys wantin to do some kind of boogie woogie slide kinda belt buckle rubbin’ booty slappin’ break dance with my girls. Oh yeah boys, I am licensed by this great state to carry a handgun

  Enjoy the snow…

  
• Super Bowl

  It’ that time of year Daddio! Super Bowl XLII. We’re having our 2nd annual Super Bowl party. I cooked up some groceries for the kids last year, just finger foods, fried stuff… chicken, dill pickles, cheese sticks and the such. It was a big hit so we’re doing it again. Hot wings, buffalo chicken, veggie tray and more more more.

  Looking forward to the game and Dannica Patricks new video on godaddy.com. Found a link to last years vid Go see GoDaddy’s Super Bowl ad! I’ll post a link to the new one after it’s released.

  
• Yeah, this is it...

  Making an attempt at this while cooking some sloppy joes and tater tots. Got one kid sick and the ol’ lady had to work late (that’s a story I’ll be posting soon) Wish me luck! I’ve got to go check my meat

  

A day in my life

• Her first

  Post that is

  
• My day!

  I almost got fired! That is the key word here. ALMOST……

  
• My kid made me sick

  Now I’m sick. I’ve been off work for 4 days. A mini vacation if you will. I didn’t go anywhere I just took some time off as a gift to myself for my birthday. And the last day I’m off I get sick. Now I have to go back to work tomorrow sick. Which I would not miss work for nothing. Afraid I’ll get fired. Have to have a JOB. I had a good time off. I didn’t do much. However, I did get my hair cut on Friday and went to olive garden with Randy. You know the ol man in charge. I need to get my self together and plan a trip to Seattle. My best friend lives there and wants me to come visit. Which I want to but I would feel guilty going without my girls. Because they really want to go too. I talked to Titania today for about two hours. We have a great idea of going on a road trip. Taking all the kids. Renting a RV. Man that would be fun. Maybe this summer we can do it. Well, I better go. I’m not feeling too well.

  
• Real Post

  What exactly is blogging? Some say it’s fun. Some say it’s just a way to get things off your chest. I suppose I could blog about my life, kids, husband, fantasy. Who knows what I’ll blog about today. I have to tell you that there is something intriquing about posting something and the world might stumble accros it and read your thoughts. I’m going to give it a try in hopes that I might find my own thoughts. You see, I don’t have my own thoughts. I’m a working mother, wife. Everything I say is initiated by someone or a circumstace. I feel like I’ve lost myself in the everyday actions. My goal here is to think for myself and find myself. Sounds silly to me that I would be looking for myself on a blog. I’ll start with my opinions. Yes I have them, lost they are but they are still there. you might find this silly but it is the first thing that popped in my head. The trash men. The trash runs every Friday. The big truck comes with two men riding on the back and one driving the truck. The guys on the back roll by the house jump off and pick up the trash can and dump the trash into the back on the truck. Then as they are jumping on the back of the truck to roll down to the next house they throw the cans in the yard. Landing where they may. Sometimes in the drive way. Sometimes in the yard and most of the time in the street. I’m sure they have a quota to reach. Several city streets to pick up trash and only a certain amount of time to get it done. I too know what it’s like to be on a timeline. But why on earth do you not have enough time to put the trash can down in the same spot you picked it up? Let’s just try this one on for size. Let’s say I throw my trash bags out by the curb without a can. And let the neighborhood dogs and cats rip into them as needed. How would they feel if every Friday they had to pick up bags and scattered trash. Guess what? They would’nt do it. They would leave it there for me to pick up. So, why on earth would they just throw the damn cans down where ever they land? Because they don’t care! That’s why. And why should they I ask? It’s just trash cans and they are just trash men. It’s all about the attitude. Mine sucks sometimes too. Well most of the time. Well, with all that being said I’ll leave you to ponder my thoughts. Think about it. Think about the little things that make you mad that you never say a word about. It may be small or huge. But most of all it’s your thougts. What you think. Or should I say what I think. Because this about my thoughts afterall.

  
• Sunday Morning

  Good morning. I’m a better person in the morning. I usually wake up hurting like hell but my mind is clear. My thoughts make more sense to me. Some people wake up and have to have a cup of coffee or don’t want you to talk to them for about an hour. I’m totally opposite. I hit the ground running. When my feet hit the floor my mind is ready. I say this to prepare you for today’s blog. I’m awake. I’ll be blogging in the am most of the time. I watched a movie last night called “The game plan". I loved it. Yes, it was a chick flick or a family movie but damn the Rock is soooo hot. My favorite part was when he made his pecks bounce. He he that was funny. I believe this movie touched me because there is something about a daddy and a child. I know a few men that don’t even know their children. They have the chance to make the best out of a bad situation but yet they still dwell on the bad and choose to not know their child. I’m well aware, that was just a movie. Not real. However, I do know some men that feel that way about their children and some that feel that way about a child that is not even their own. They are not perfect fathers. But who is? But they do take on the responsibilty and try to make a not so perfect situation better. Life is too short to miss out on a child’s life. I wouldn’t miss it for the world. I’m not be any means perfect. But atleast I show up! Well, enough about the movie and dad’s and kids. I could talk for days about that subject.
