Bag of Randomness

  • It’s amazing what you can get done around the house when you don’t blog.  I ended up installing a ceiling fan, two interior lights, one exterior light, cut down a tree, cleaned some very hard to reach windows (and came close to breaking my neck), and did a little woodwork and painting.
  • Some folks asked a few questions, so it’s time to answer the Mail Bag . . .
    • My U2 tickets have me placed in the Red Zone section.  I splurged and participated in an auction to get the better seats, which is a special section very close to the stage.
    • My sister moved to NYC about a nine months ago, and WifeGeeding and I haven’t made the trip out there to visit as of yet, but hopefully things will work out for us in the future.
    • The doctor gave me a steroid shot to help with my hives, and prescribed a MethylPREDNISolone dose pack.  The shot started to work very quickly, I would say in about five hours you really couldn’t see the hives anymore.
    • I remember the old Western Auto store by the old post office and the Baker, right next to Russell Whatley Motors.  The name Price sounds very, very familiar.  I think my dad actually bought me a bicycle from that store.
  • Yesterday I mowed the lawn while SisterGeeding used the weedeater.  I’m sure Mom and Dad would have been proud to see both of us helping each other out.
  • Greg Ellis and TO are no longer Cowboys – who will do all the whining?
  • The other day I took SisterGeeding out to eat at a local burger place, and as we entered the entire Coppell Fire Department and EMT personnel was in attendance for a fundraiser.  If there was ever a time for me to have a heart attack at a burger place, that was the time.
  • WifeGeeding recently answered the phone and screamed at the top of her lungs – I was scared to death.  Turns out one of her friends got engaged.  I’m still freaked out.
  • OtherDogGeeding somehow got his bottom infected, which resulted in a trip to vet, which resulted in him being sedated and having the infection lanced.  OtherDogGeeding is not a happy camper.
  • It was just about a year ago that OtherDogGeeding swollowed that sewing needle.
  • While driving to Lowe’s this past weekend I passed a local car dealership and saw they were selling a Delorean for$17,000.  Even though I have no idea what kind of shape the car is in by simply driving by it, it’s tempting, so very tempting.
  • Regular blogging returns for sure next week, but I might find some time later today to prep for some postings tomorrow.

Closed For About A Week

Family is more important than blogging, and with my sister visiting from the East Coast, I would rather spend time with her than on a computer.  But that’s not to say I might sneak a post or two along the way – you should just not expect anything.

In the mean time, feel free to leave a comment about whatever.  Maybe you always wanted to ask me a question or wondered about something but never had a chance to ask me.  So shoot, and I may just end up posting a answer to them.

Grace.
