River + 100 degree day + Bud Light= Too much fun!

When I get off work this afternoon I am going to meet with the gentleman who could potentially be my next boss. Nervous, no...Desperate, yes.

But I have been in this boat before...And I didn't get the job. None the less I have already been thinking about how I want to tell my current employer that I am leaving, so if this does go through then I'll be ready. I didn't really feel too bad about job searching and the whole nine. I have to do what I have to do. But yesterday brought the news that my current boss' son (the guy who pretends he is my boss) had a pretty rough ATV accident and has a broken collar bone, a few broke ribs and a broken back. As if we aren't in a big enough mess here! So now everyone at the shop has to pick it up to cover him while he's out. Then if I leave...Ouch. It seriously could be devastating to this company.

In other news, both Summer and I got a little bit of sun this weekend! And by little, I mean a whole lot! A good friend of mine and his fiance (hi Della and Matt) have a monster pontoon boat and invited us out there yesterday. It was such a good time, we were playing a game I call that my uncle made for us on the boat like it was nothing! What is donkey-butt you might ask? Basically it has the same concept of horseshoes, but you throw washers into a box with a piece of PVC pipe inside it. The boxes are set about 15 feet apart and each player throws 3 washers. If your washer stays in the box, it's a point, if it lands in the tube, it's three points, and if you can land it on the edge of the box, it's 5! It was so much fun, we only lost 2 washers in the river and our team only got beat once!

Well I need to head home for lunch and a fresh application of aloe!

The ever changing, never ending list.

I hear a lot about bucket lists. I dunno, maybe I have one. More of my 'lists' are current lists, 5 year lists, 25 year lists...but I guess they all could be bucket lists because we don't know how much time we've got at the dance. Over the past 2 years my wants have drastically changed. I've been focusing on simpler things, true things. Not reaching so much for more, just trying to enjoy what is here more. That goes for family, friends, opportunity, relationships...not material things. (Except I really really want a canoe or kayak so I can get out on the water soon) Is it possible to make a list that won't change?  Is it possible to remain true to the values of a 34 year old father, when those very values seem to have shifted based on life experiences? Are the items on my list too specific? Maybe... Love Honesty Compassion Health Fun More to come on this one I'm pretty sure.

Take us out to the ball game.

Last night we ventured over to the Explorers baseball game after dinner, it was great. Jordan talked to the X's pitching crew out in the bull-pin for a while, and they ended up giving him a ball. He's such a sports guy! The pitcher that gave him the ball said, "Can you give it a throw?" and so he did...over his head out into left field! Of course my diva Bell had more fun doing spins and drinking a slush, but that's all good. I love my family.
