Change Your Clocks Tonight

clock

Helps to remember this little saying, Spring forward and Fall back. That means the clocks change tonight and since we have to move the time ahead by an hour that we all lose that hour of sleep. I always find it interesting that they decided to make the change happen on a Saturday night/Sunday morning. Why not do it on Sunday night and have that lost hour disappear before Monday’s start of the week? I don’t think its fair to cut short my Saturday night partying by an hour when you could just as easily take away an hour from Sunday instead.

Extra days are nice

Yesterday was like a bonus day. Usually February only has 28 days and once the schoolkids get that firmly implanted in their minds, they just accept that. Except that every four years February gets an extra day tacked on the end of the month. So that happens to be this year and it was kinda nice to have that extra day. It gave me a little breathing room to get some things done around the house and an extra day to get the bills paid.

Too Many Remotes

One of the dogs lost his ball under the sofa, so I had to get up and move the furniture around in the living room to find his ball. That dog would give me no peace while his ball was unreachable.

When I moved the sofa, the cushion fell off and that’s when I decided to give up watching the TV and just clean up the living room and the sofa. I don’t usually worry too much about the sofa, but for some reason there was a lot of loose change and weird things accumulating under that sofa cushion, so I decided to deal with it on the spot.

By the time I was done, I had found over $4.00 in loose change, a Bic lighter, a pair of sunglasses, a AA battery, three white socks and four remote controls. I had no idea I needed four remote controls in my living room until I rounded them up and laid them out on the coffee table.

July

It is so hard for me to believe that July is hear already it just seems like yesterday it was the start of the year, as you get older the days go by so fast. It seems such a short time ago I was in high school now I have grand kids in school, how did the time fly by so fast? I sometimes wish I was young again then it sets in that I did not have a great childhood and I am happy that I am old and set in my ways so I guess this is it.

Big game

This week is a big week for me and my football teams. Vanderbilt really needs to beat Tennessee today and I really need Oklahoma to come big and beat Texas Tech. The wins would make it very interesting for bowl games and in the case of Oklahoma a big factor in making it to the national championship game against Alabama unless LSU beats the Tide in the SEC Championship game later on. Confused? Well so am I. Let us just hope all of my teams win today and then we can sort it out later on.

Hello cruel world

Welcome to my blog. I will attempt to have some fun, make some friends and above all else I will let the world know what I am thinking about and in no uncertain terms too. I have been called loud and opinianated and I guess those things are very true, I say what I am thinking and think what I am saying all the time.
