Namaste,
Good Morning everyone! Wednesday was quite busy. We had inventory at work, and after all of the prep work, it only took the crew a couple of hours to count. After work I came home and got ready for the gym. I took a few minutes to clean the gym real good, ran on the treadmill for 10 minutes. Mr. Crocker and I had a small meeting to discuss this weekends cookout. We were going to try and raise some money for improvements for the gym, but in all actuality, this is going to be an expense. Oh well! What are ya gonna do? Should be fun! Love you all!

Good Morning,
Tuesday's gone with the wind...... Early to work due to the fact that we have inventory today. After work I headed to the gym to do some office work. I needed to transfer our accounting spreadsheet to the computer at the gym. The only problem is that the computer at the gym is running Office 2000 and it would not convert the file. I had to recreate the wheel. At 6:30 one of our students showed up and started climbing the rope. When he was climbing up.... He broke his arm. Not a good start to class. We had a great workout going and I was holding pads, when one of our jujitsu fighters threw a knee, and I jammed my thumb into my left eye! OUCH! I drove home with one eye, and took a shower, ate some dinner, and went to bed. Today???? Inventory!
Love you all!

Namaste,
Wow! Yesterday kinda sucked! We left College Station at 7:30, after a stop at Rolf's. We made great time to Dallas, and after an hour and a half of shopping, we piled back in the car and headed North. It should have only taken us two and a half hours, but I 35 is a mess. It took two hours just to go 22 miles. We stopped in Ardmore to get some lunch at 3:00. When we got home it was time to get laundry done and straighten up the house before starting the week. Sherrie and I went to the gym for an hour and a half. We stopped at the market on the way home to get fruit and milk. Then home to get it together for today. Today will be better.... Inventory prep!
Love you all!

Good Morning,
Saturday morning we went to the beach for a few hours before leaving Galveston. The waves were huge, and I got a great cardio workout just swimming out 500 yards. Sherrie, Trey, and Jordan stayed up on the Seawall due to their lobster like skin conditions. We went back to the hotel and got cleaned up, ate breakfast, and headed back to College Station. Just North of Houston their is an awesome outlet mall, and of course we had to stop there and look at shoes. They had a New Balance store and everything in there was an additional 25% off. I found a great pair of running shoes for $24.00. I love a good bargain. Once we got back to Bruce and Tracy's house we took an hour nap, while Bruce cooked dinner, then off to the George Bush library to watch the fireworks. We rode the shuttle from Reed arena to the library, and put our blankets out really close to where the shuttles would pick us up. The fireworks were OK..... We almost had to do a beat down on people trying to cut in the bus line, but that is a different story. Sunday morning we all got dressed up and went to A & M Church of Christ. It was very nice and I think it is a great idea to expose the kid's to several different styles of worship. We went to Texas Roadhouse for lunch where Sherrie and I shared some catfish. We were not really hungry, so guess what we had for dinner? Catfish! There is still some in the fridge too.... We went to research park and took a few pictures before a thunderstorm rolled in. We came back to the house and played some cards before heading to bed. Sherrie and I have been sharing a twin bed for the last few days and it has been fun. We are heading back to Oklahoma here in a few minutes, after a stop at Grapevine Mills mall! We will see you all soon!
Love you!

Namaste,
Good Morning from the Beachcomber Inn in lovely Galveston, TX. Thursday morning I went to work really, really, early. It was just Gaymarie and I, we had a lot to get accomplished, but we did it. I was able to get out by 1:00. We left the house at 1:300 and headed to College Station. W e arrived at Sherries favorite restaurant, Fuddruckers just after 7:00. Bruce, Tracy, and her parents, met us there and we hung out for a couple of hours, before we headed back to their house. We crashed out pretty hard. I woke up at 5:00 and ran a couple of miles, before heading back to the house, to get ready for our 3 hour drive to Galveston. We left College Station at 8:15 and made great time, even though our GPS took us through the hood in Houston. We went to Joe's for lunch then straight to the beach, where the Jones Family got FRIED! We all wore sunblock but the saltwater washed it off pretty effectively. We stayed on the beach for about four hours, before heading back to our room. We showered, and rested for a few minutes before heading out to explore. We ended up at Fisherman's Wharf for dinner, a little cafe called Yaga's! It was really good and cheap! Trey and I shared a pizza, it was yummy! We went to the ferry, after dinner and caught it in perfect timing. This was the sunset cruise, and I took 100 pictures. We went back to the hotel, and everyone crashed hard, except me! I edited a couple of hundred pictures. As I was getting ready for bed, I stepped into the bathroom to find the toilet full, and had to get a plunger and become the plumber. My alarm clock went of at 6:00, and I drove over to East Beach to take sunrise pictures. Back to the hotel. The waves are huge, and we are heading to the beach now! Love you all!

Hello,
Very, very busy at work. Have not even taken a lunch break in the past two days. When I got home I didn't feel well. I was a little nauseous and so I laid down for a bit. I decided it was not a good night to go to the gym, so we packed our stuff to get ready for texas. It was an all evening chore, due to the fact that I have a 16 year old daughter. I have 3/4ths of our stuff in the car, and as soon as I get off work we will load the other things and head out! We are driving to College Station tonight, and Galveston in the morning. A few days at the beach with the family should be very refreshing! Anyway.... Have a great 4th of July!
Love you all!

Namaste,
Again work was very, very, busy. After work I came home for a few minutes, and changed clothes, then headed up to the gym. I met with Ben for a little while, we discussed a cookout at the lake to get everyone together, and do a little fund raising for the club. We cleaned the gym because it was a mess, then I took off for a good run. I got a mile away and the sky opened up. I sprinted back to the gym, and got ready for class. We had a small group. but it was good. I jetted home and got a shower, before one of Sherrie's friends came over. He is going to watch Boomer while we are gone. Anyway.... Have to go to Norman before work today, so I am off!
Love you all!
