I'm one of those guys now...

I finally have crossed the line, literally. I left the building I work in over lunch to run some errands to find that either I parked like this early this morning or elves came and moved my truck over 2 feet to the left. Wow, what a jerk.

January almost gone – 2010

One month and a day after Christmas 2009 and I can’t wait for next Christmas already. I love Thanksgiving and Christmas, that it by far my favorite time of the year. We’ve only 10 months to go till Thanksgiving.

It’s cold and will be for the next few days. I took Audrey and Nathan to the Golden Archery club Tuesday night archery group lesson/shoot this evening. Nathan has been there before but Audrey went for the first time and really enjoyed it. We found out she is left eye dominant and shoots better left-handed. Nathan popped two balloons while Audrey had a number of near-hits.

Enough is enough. We've had a good amount of snow for sure. I've battled an ineffective (since fixed) snow blower, 19 snow removals, bitter bitter wind chill, on call at work, issues at work, my truck breaking down with my wife and kids with me and a $75 tow bill.

Whew!

I guess all is ending alright. A simple adjustment to my snow blower made it work like a champ. A call from the repair shop is implicating the my truck's battery, so if that is the case, it won't be that expensive. OK, they just called, the fuel pump is bad and of course it's in the tank so it'll be a few more bucks.

And... as this is written there is an emergency code fix needed at work, so off I go....

A few weeks ago I shot and edited a music video for a fellow name Tracy Skretta. He lives here in Omaha and I met him when he was playing one Friday evening at a local coffee shop.

I offered to shot some video of him playing for him to use as well as practice for me. I think it turned out pretty well. I learned a lot and had some help from a guy named Chris Bridges. I can't thank Chris enough!

The embedded video above is a little wide for the column but that is the smallest embedding YouTube offers for this video.

Don't forget to write 2010 on your checks

Jan 4, 201o and I'm going back to work today. I've been off since Dec 18, it was nice to have all that time off and I'm trying to not let it bug me that I'm going back into the office today.
The big snowstorm (read the previous blog entry) did in fact come and dump a ton of snow on us. The big snow fall happened on Christmas day. My wife and I went out together to tackle all the snow accounts I have the next day on the 26th. I went out at 8, did a couple then picked her up at 11:00 and we worked for the next 12 hours and 3 hours the next day. It was a lot of work and it took 2 days for all the aches and pains to subside with a little help from some Advil.

Happy New Year everyone
