Mowed

I mowed my parents yard today for the first time since I graduated from high school which has been about 7 years ago. I forgot how much time it takes and how much work it is. My dad wanted me to bag it and the grass was extra long so it was a good work out. I know for sure that I don't miss doing that.

Spring Break

About a week ago my brother and I went home for spring break. It was a fun week with hanging out with our parents and also several friends. We did some ghost hunting which we all very much enjoy that is with our friends not our parents. We had delicious food which my mom makes and even had a friend stay with us for a couple of days that we don't see much of. It was a very good break.

Overeating!

Okay, so today is Thanksgiving and of course we are at home with my parents. My mom fixed a feast for us to enjoy and it all has tasted so delicious. We all went away from the table kind of miserable from overeating. I'm sure glad I don't have to do anything strenuous because I don't think I could. I am sure glad I don't do this on a daily basis.

Romantic Cancun Vacation

Some day when I find that special lady that I want to spend the rest of my life with I want to plan a romantic cancun vacation with her. My parents have been there and they had a wonderful time. They said it would be a great place to spend a honeymoon or celebrating an anniversary and that is what they did. The beaches there are beautiful and there are many palm trees to add to the attraction. There are also all inclusive Cancun resorts and hotels which offer many great amenities to make the trip even more romantic and fun. It is a place that is made for couples who are in love.

**I was paid for this post. My honest opinion was given and not swayed in any way.**

Fall

It seems as if over night summer went into fall and I guess according to the calendar it did. But what I mean is the weather went from running the air conditioner to turning on the furnace. Don't get me wrong, I love this cool weather but it would have been nice to have more 70 type weather for a little while. My mom heard that we could have snow flurries in the next 7 days. Yuck!

Home Again Home Again

Well my brother and I are home again. We were just home about a week ago. We are having Norwegian pancakes with my parents then watching the Vikings game. They are playing the Packers and we hope they win. They have been doing awesome since Favre has joined the team. I was never a fan of the Vikings till they hired him.

Cake and Ice Cream

Last night we met my parents in the town close to where they live and had supper together at Taco Ticos. It was so good and it had been a long time since I had been there. Then we went home and they gave me Season 2 of the King of Queens and a really nice wooden tray that I can use for my laptop. We then indulged in some delicious white cake with chocolate frosting and Peanut Butter Panic ice cream. It was a great night.

My Car

Well, it sounds like I will be getting my car back this week. I've been without it since May and I haven't missed it. I've been fortunate enough to be able to use my parents other car. It is in a lot better condition that mine is in. I will enjoy getting my sub woofers back and cd player. I do miss that.

Family Reunion

Saturday my brother and I went to a family reunion of relatives on my Dad's side. We had a blast. I think we played volleyball for about 3 hours straight. We also ate some pretty awesome food. Later we had a bonfire and made smores. It was a great day and wish we could do that more often.

Car Troubles

Last night, myself and four of my friends were heading out of town to go do some ghost hunting. We got about a half an hour away from where we live and the car started acting up. We were blessed enough to be right by a farm when it decided to totally die. I had to call my dad at 11:00 p.m. to let him know we were stranded. Luckily we found someone to pick us up and take us back home. My dad had to drive two hours today to get here to try and fix it. I'm sure that's not how he wanted to spend his Saturday. I feel kind of bad about it but I guess it just couldn't be helped.

Buy Baby Gifts

I have yet to buy any baby gifts but I am sure in the near future I will have to buy baby gifts. There are many people I know who are expecting either their first or second child. Being a guy who does not have children yet I would probably need some help in figuring out what to buy. There is this great website called babynest.com where a person like me can get some great ideas for gifts. There is apparel, bath time items, bed time items and even items for meal time. There is a large assortment of gifts for the baby, the baby's siblings or even the mom and dad. If you are looking for that perfect gift be sure and check out this website.

Hard Rock Cafe

Today we traveled down to Beale Street in downtown Memphis. There we found an awesome Hard Rock Cafe. We decided to get some lunch there and it was worth it. It was quite costly for my parents but an experience we well enjoyed. They had some great pictures of Johnny Cash and Elvis. They were also playing some great music. It was fun.

Brother

My brother has been gone for just over a week now. He went and stayed with our parents last week and he is on his way home now. I'm looking forward to him getting back so that I have someone to do stuff with. I think he is ready to come back to so that's good.

My Car

Last week my brother and I went to Walmart. As we were getting ready to leave I tried to start my car but it wouldn't. I tried and tried and we finally had to leave it sit there. It sat there for a couple of days till we finally got it taken to our apartment building by a wrecker. Then when my parents came on Sunday my dad got inside of it and it started right up. I was so mad, I couldn't believe it. Anyway, my dad drove it home and I guess he will have to figure out what's wrong with it.

Parents

My parents came to our town on Sunday. We all went to church together and then went out to lunch at Perkins. I had one of their new sandwiches which was amazing. Then we decided to get some dessert and I got strawberry cheesecake. I was so stuffed by the time I was done. It was a nice day.

CD Player

Well, not too long ago my CD player in my car just up and quit. So, I got one that I had at home where my parents live and finally decided I would replace my other one with this one. Well, it doesn't work either so now I have to go find another one. I can't stand to drive my car without any music. I will have to try and find a cheaper one and hope it will work a long time for me.

Taco Pie

One of my favorite meals that my mom makes is Taco Pie. She makes it in a pie plate and layers tortillas and a mixture of taco meat and refried beans. She also tops each layer with cheese and then bakes it. It is soooo good and it doesn't last long when we are all home to eat it.

Sick

Well, I had a great weekend at home with my parents, brother and hanging out with friends. On Sunday night I started coughing a lot and it continued on through Monday. I thought maybe I was having an allergic reaction to something but then this morning I woke up with a 102 temperature and feel lousy. I sure hope this is only a 24 hour bug.

Perfume

I am not familiar with the kinds of perfume women wear. I do know though the kind that my mother wears most of the time. She wears a perfume from Avon. It is called Night Magic and is a favorite of my Dad's. It is the type of perfume that is not over powering, it has a more subtle fragrance. As long as I can remember she has worn this brand of perfume.
What I don't like is when women wear perfume that is way strong and it doesn't even smell that great. I like it when I am around a female and you can slightly smell her perfume. It adds an attraction to her and it is nice to be around. There are just so many perfumes available that I would think it would be hard to know which one to choose.
A new site coming soon is Scent.net.

Car Troubles

I had to leave my car with my dad because it keeps using oil and the transmission fluid is low. So he always has a way to figure out what is causing this trouble and I am hoping he is figuring it out. I had to take their other car to get back home and am sure glad they have that spare car for me to use otherwise I don't know what I would do.
