My surprise

Yesterday my wife got a package from one of the ladies in her crochet group. She got some neat stuff but there was an extra surprise. She sent ME a crocheted eagle refrigerator magnet. I was tickled pink. In case you haven't noticed I collect eagles. I have over 100 from a tiny charm that I made into an earring to 2 blankets. I have them in all kinds of materials, wood, brass, glass, plaster, and fabrics. I try now to find unusual poses and styles. You would be surprised at how many there are. A lot of them I can't afford but I do pretty well. Anyway, thank you truelove730 for the addition to my collection.
In other news, we got a new dog. He's a part golden lab / black papa(MIA). His mother was found tied up in a shed with a ski rope so tight her skin was torn up. I'd like to find the asshole who did it and drag him by a skirope behind my truck. Anyway the guy who rescued her didn't know she was preggie til he got her home. He wanted to find good homes for the pups and we wanted a pup for the kids so we now have Tip or Tippy orTipper whatever Sherry and Tahra decide on. He's solid black cept for a tip of white on his nose and toes(hence the name Tip). He's gonna be a good addition to the family. He plays well with Tahra and more importantly he doesn't yap all night long like some pups. Das all I got for now. See Ya!! Oh yeah stay tuned for my bathroom remodel pics.

Valentines Day

I don't know what she was trying to say with the button on my card, but this is the stuff that I got as Valentine's gifts from my darling wifey. I actually got the tool box a couple of weeks ago, but, she told me then that it was my Valentine. The snake she said was the only "masculine" plush the store had besides the gorilla in boxers. I'm glad she got the snake. She only got me a tiny box of candy. She wants me to watch my weight. Only kiddin. Anyway I hope everyone got gifts as good as mine. Y'all have a happy V'day.

Music Meme
Music Meme (I was Tagged By Mommiechickie)
1. Total number of music files on your computer. None. Mainly cause Sherry has all that music on hers so I don't need them.

2. The last CD you bought. That's a toughie. I think it was the christian music cd that I bought cause my cousin wrote some of the songs and played guitar on a couple of them. I don't remember the name and it's in the truck.

3. The last song you listened to before reading this message. The theme song to the remodel show "Clean Sweep".

4. Name 5 songs you listen to often or that mean a lot to you. Sittin on the Dock of the Bay by Otis Redding, Proud Mary by Ike and Tina Turner, Hotel California the Eagles, Who Are You by the Who , Da Da Da Da Dora, Dora the Explorer

5. Who will you pass this stick to (3 people) and why? Prolly nobody cause I'm too dang lazy.

Monday

Yes. I know it's been a week since I posted. I've had a very busy week. My daughter had a b'day. I actually had to work a day and I have been preparing myself for my BIG bathroom remodel. Today Sherry and I went to Fort Smith and got the tile for the walls. I coulda just ordered it here , but, then it woulda prolly cost me twice as much. And since she has to work on Valentine's Day, we used this trip to have our Valentine's meal. We ate at Olive Garden and it was wooonnndeeerrrfulll. I have never eaten at one before so it was a first for me. We spent way too much time there and had to cut our shopping spree short. Along with Home Depot where we got the tile and some vertical blinds and a new Makita grinder (for me). we went to the Sam's Club and picked up our membership cards and spent $100 bucks on diapers, tp, and beer.(we live in a dry county so the beer is a treat) We stopped at Hobby Lobby so Sherry could look at yarn and crochet stuff. There was so much stuff that she couldn't make up her mind so we dint buy anything. Then we came home cause our sitters (my mom and brother) had plans for tonight. I'm gonna be posting pics of my remodel before and after so keep watching. SeeYa!!

Phil's Shadow

So the groundhog saw his shadow again. Well, DUUUUUHHH!! Every year they make a big production about the shadow and hey, guess what ? They have hundreds of news cameras all around the area. All those lights it must look to Phil like the sun landed on his porch. 'Sides who wouldn't run back in after someone dragged you out of a warm bed in February. I'd bite somebody and head for the hills. If Phil really wanted to predict something, how bout the score of the Super Bowl. I KNOW he's an Eagle fan.

We got new stuff!!!

We got our ( I should say Sherry's) tax refund back. Instead of a teeny 19" tv I get to watch the Super Bowl on a brand new 27" RCA. We woulda got an even bigger one but then we woulda had to buy a new entertainment center too. The new one fits perfectly with only an inch clearance. We also got a Gazelle exercise thingy. I've already put it together and done about 15 minutes on it. It really works your legs and chest. The rest of the check is gonna catch up all our bills and since I just got a water bill that was twice normal, we're gonna need it. It seems that when you have a busted water line that they will adjust the sewage part of the bill to reflect the extra water, but, you gotta pay for the full amount of water that soaked into your yard. If we have any money left Sherry says I can have a new monitor( mine is trying to die, it keeps demagnetizing itself ). Since I had negligible income last year ( zippo to be truthful ) I think that's pretty generous of her. I love my wife.
