20160124 - X Files are back!

20160124 - No exercise today, way too tired... Up and into the office. Cleaned out my office a coupe of conference rooms and other vacant offices. It took all day... Home and Gma&paW here for dinner. Boys crazy, D didn't get things shipped, so I had to work after working all day :-( we had a nice dinner. D off to the new youth group he has been going to, J off to our youth group, G&I did a puzzle and watched some football. Everyone home and I stayed up to watch the new X Files.

20160123 - Working Saturday

20160123 - Up early and L&I did our exercises. Got myself together and headed into work. L is on her own with the boys today as it is a full day of move related activities for me today. She has to get G to his basketball game and then baseball exhibition. At least D will be able to drive himself to baseball today :-) Was at work all day, existing office all morning doing desk stuff. Had lunch with the team and then headed over to the new building. Things are moving right along. The next 2 weeks will prove to be interesting... Headed home, saw D's car sitting at the hig school when I went by. Home and Lilly was left outside all afternoon, poor freezing bearded lady. L&J home to get me and we went to Max & Erma's for dinner meeting D, who drove himself, and Gma&paW with G. G blabbered about his games, both basketball and baseball today and how they destroyed both teams. 
Headed home after dinner and D went to meet some friends at the bowling alley, which was full so they ended up at Wendy's and then Glow Putt. They got home and I had a little talk with D and all of his friends about driving with too many kids in the car and it was illegal, doesn't matter if it is 3 feet or 300 miles... D went to spend the night at his friends with the guys and LJG&I watched Crocodile Dundee 2 and hung out. Up late finishing the database I started today.

20160122 + G'day Mate!

20160122 + L got me up way to early again to exercise. I dropped D off at school on the way into work. I headed to the new building first and looked at the set up. Not real thrilled with everything that I saw... Over to my office and then had a meeting with the new customer. Meetings all day. Left in good time tonight, getting pretty exhausted by this point... Home and had dinner with the fam. Then started the fireplace and L&I worked on a puzzle while D played the Xbox, J&G were drawing, with Crocodile Dundee playing in the background.

20160121 - Happy Boy!

20160121 - L woke me up way too early again to exercise...  Got ready and dropped D off at school on the way to work.  He didn't seem nervous about his driving test today, but we didn't talk about it: maybe we are both too nervous to speak...  In to work and getting things cleaned up and ready for a visitor today.  Visitors showed up and me and several others from the GC team sat and waited to be invited in to the meeting...  Eventually it came time for me to leave so I butted in and let them know I was going and then hit the road.  I headed to the high school and picked D up, and we headed home where D got his car cleaned off and tires inflated, all ready to go.  D drove me to the BMV testing location, he checked in and in a couple of minutes an officer took him out.  I hung out in the waiting room and watched his movement on my iPhone.  In about 10 minutes the officer came back in followed by a young man with a HUGE GRIN on his face: HE PASSED!!!  

After we got the paperwork squared away D drove me through the test path he went and told me all about how easy it was.  We sung through the bank for some cash and then headed to the BMV in Gahanna, which we thought would be less busy than the Morese Rd. BMV...  After an hour wait in line we made it to  the counter and filled out the paperwork, D got his picture taken and we are almost good to go.  Next stop was the insurance office where we got D put on our policy.  So he is all signed, up license and insurance in hand and ready to roll.  Home and D got his baseball gear and zipped off, driving himself to practice!  L was a nervous wreck... 

 After D left, L told me about her day, getting barfed on by a little girl and J&G were doing homework.  Before long I headed out to meet the business visitors downtown at Mitchell's Steakhouse for an incredible dinner.  In the meantime D got home and volunteered to take G to his Scout Pack meeting.  Off they went, L almost crying...  I got home, got boys to bed and not up too late trying to stay ahead of the wave...

20160120 - All over the State

20160120 - UP WAY TOO EARLY  with L to do exercises...  D&I rolled out late and dropped him off at school on the way into work.  Day started off snowy and crappy as I had to fire tow guys first thing this morning.  Then in my office for meetings all day.  Left work and went to Hickory House to meet L&G for dinner after G's basketball practice.  G got a steak off the kids menu and talked and talked about how great he did at practice.  D is at baseball and J at ski club.  Home and watched some American Idol.  I had to run out and get D from baseball and then back out to get J.  Not up to late tonight.

20160119 - Meetings, Sorry , Yawn

20160119 - Up in the am and exercised with L. Dropped D off at school on the way to work, it is 10 degrees out today :-( My office is a meat locker BRRRRR.... Meetings all day.

20160118 - Everything Moving

20160118 - Up in the am to a quiet house, everyone has the day off except me :-(  Headed to work in the freezing cold, 7 degrees this morning...  In to work and straight into meetings.  A super fast day of things going on.  Everything moving very fast, the new building is getting set up nicely.  Stayed at work with Dave tying things off and planning for the rest of the week.  Headed home about 19:15.  Home and got something to eat.  L had the boys at home all day.  D listed stuff and L took J&G to a movie and gave everyone hair cuts.  Only home for a short time and then ran to Bible Bangers without Doc.  got some food ordered and then had to go pick up D from baseball and deliver him home.  Back to Bible Bangers and we had a really good meeting.

20160117 - Final Practice

20160117 - Up early with L to workout. She got ready and I went back to bed. Eventually I had to get up, get ready and we all headed out to church. Home and L reading the paper, J blasting away on his trumpet and G in the basement watchin TV and dismantling electronics. D&I headed out in his car to drive through the area where he will take his driving test this coming Thursday :-o We stopped at Kroger on the way home to pick up ingredients for lunch and other healthy food for me to take to work to munch on throughout the week. Home and we got J&G to help. D made Parmesan Meatball Sliders, J cut up a fruit salad, G made a Cinnamon Sugar Pull Apart Loaf.  So lunch was AWESOME!  After lunch D worked on his car a bit, J went to his buddy Conor's.  I then took D to Easton to meet up with some of his friends, L took off for dinner with her girl friends, G played the Xbox for a bit and I did the bills for the next 2 weeks.  G&I then headed out and stopped at Glow Putt for a good round of putt-putt and then dinner at Donatos.  After that we ran down to see if the renters that haven't paid since AUGUST were still int he house; YEP STILL THERE LIVING FOR FREE!!!  We then swung by the bank to depost the check for the renters that are paying...  Home and we settled in the basement to watch the Hunchback of Notre Dame.  D not home until midnight, yawn.
