Easter, birthdays and other reasons to get together….

Well as I predicted, the time off and the long weekend with the family went by faster than a taco bell burrito granda through to bowels of and overweight fast food loving redneck on vacation at Disney land with the bathroom on the other side of the park. It never fails time moves fast when you’re enjoying the day and slows down when you’re at work and need to get away.

I always loved the way Frank & Sara came up with ways to celebrate every mundane holiday an any reason to give a gift. They passed this on to their daughter whom I love; all she needs is and excuse and she will find a way to buy a gift or give something to someone. I wish more could be this way; on my side we looked for reason not to put effort into gift giving. My Dad……jezz I could never buy him anything that he liked or acted like he liked. An mom was no better; no emotion just a gift; making sure everyone was there and on time was more important to her. Nothing was meant by it, just the way they were. I do the same thing; barely show emotion just a grunt if you’re lucky that shows I like what I got. Now give a gift to Angie and you will get the whole works and cavalcade of emotion showing she loves her gift. “AWWWWWW, OOOOOHHH, Look its crap on a stick!!!! How did you know it’s just what I wanted!!!!” Yes I’m exaggerating……or am I. Enough picking on Angie.

I enjoyed the time we had together and look forward to the next....
