I am Natalia's daddy! My latest happenings as well as my lil' girls happenings will be posted here as I live them.

I like to read science fiction, fantasy as well as classics and comics. Always looking for recommendations. Like to play video games and board games. Love to watch old movies and shows, as I find them relaxing and entertaining. Last but not least. like to feed the birds and do some gardening.

Proud to be a US Navy Corpsman veteran and part of the Southwest Region Funeral Honor Guard.

I Love My Backyard

Natalia, Yuli and me went out on a nice walk around the trails in town. Creeks are running and starting to get Yuli used to the water. It was very nice to go out with my two girls out on the trails. We are a bit behind on books this month to hit our 40 for Natalia. We missed one night as Natalia fell asleep early. This week Natalia has a field trip to see the desert life among other animals and it sounds fun.

We got about 4-6" of snow early this week and quickly warming up and melting. Maybe another small storm in a few days bringing about the same amount of snow.

Again another week of very little work and to get creative with my small income. Seems the norm these days Now currently reading Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis.

Below is a great quote from Benjamin Franklin over 200 years ago and I will say it still remains true to this day.

"Five hundred thousand pounds of sterling annually laid out in defending ourselves, or annoying our enemies, would have great effects. With what face can we ask aids and subsidies from our friends, while we are wasting our own wealth in such prodigality?"

Benjamin Franklin - 1779
I have a small rant and it has been awhile. Is it just me or do other people go through the "drive thru" at fast food places and end up waiting a long time for the idiot in front whom complicates things? That way is meant for fast ordering. Not complicated orders or for you to take your long time deciding and changing your mind. Know what you want, order, pay and drive off. 

Dice Tower this weekend had two live plays. Here is the live play to Smash Up! and a surprise game. I would love to play this game.
