Resolutions

One of my resolutions this year is to post to the blog more often. I was kind of slack last year, but I plan on doing better this year. Another resolution is to lose weight. That one probably won't go as well. At least I am not foolish enough to get a gym membership just because the Wii Fit said I was a lard ass (dad). I don't need a high tech toy to let me know I am a little on the bigger side.

New year, new disease. Remember the family I wrote about from New Year's Eve. I forgot to tell you they brought a present. Puking. So far one of my monsters has yakked and a couple others have the runs. And now one of the Hawkman children are also ill. Usually the Hawkmen bring the disease, not take it away. So to all the Hawkmen, I sincerely apologize for your illnesses. But really it wasn't my fault. Usually new cases break out in the evening in our house, so I can't wait to go home from work.

My finances just got a little better. Yesterday I got a call that one of the kids has a cavity to be filled, one has to get a cap on his cavity because he got the filling knocked out (when I slammed him into the soccer goalpost a couple of months ago) and the third has a cavity and needs some type of other work. Well this colossal bill just got lighter. I learned that the dentist gives the kids gas before he gives them the shot. This gas costs $75. Hell No. My son will be introduced to the world of no-gas shots this week. I told him just to imagine it is a beesting in his mouth and to learn to brush his damn teeth better. This ain't the Bank of America.
