Here I am again, but keep your expectations very low

So it’s been a while, yeah like a year or so. Gina inspired me to post something. I don’t really know what to write, cause well I’ve been told all that I ever post about is political. I don’t know why I have so many political rants, but I’m trying to get over it. I do spend time each day catching up on what is going on in the world which tends to revolve a lot around politics. Perhaps this is too much time, maybe I need to shrink my Google Reader list, Candi has told me it would bug her to have so many “unread” things in her list (I usually start the day with a few hundred, but I usually just read headlines unless it looks interesting). So as a result this post is just going to be a virtual vomit of what’s going on, poor sentence structure and sporadic thought process is guaranteed to ensue.

I’m going to Moab tomorrow, I can’t wait. I’m taking Isaac & Kaitlyn, and Doug… It should be lovely, and if it’s not well then hopefully we dry out by Monday. I purchased a replacement Jeep, after selling my little Wrangler last year I’ve been itching to have a replacement, and about a month ago I went out and got an old Cherokee. It’s quite a bit bigger than the wrangler and can actually seat all three kids in the back seat. So when the time comes that Candi will let me take Roxy out on the trails we can all go together. I’ve spent the better part of my evenings over the last few weeks working on the Jeep, it needed some pretty significant love. Isaac has been super excited to help me “work on the Jeep”. It’s really fun to have him out there picking stuff up, holding things and just being curious. I also got to take a little time off work after Roxy was born and it was really cool to be able to take Isaac to school, we practiced riding his bike (no training wheels), and we rode the scooter one day. Lately he has been really interested in gardening, I blame Gina, we have seeds growing all over our house. It is really nice to be in a house where we can grow so many plants. I got to spend last weekend out in Redwood City (thank you Saundra & Dad for putting me up, or putting up with me). My dad put together a conference on water use & reuse, and I got to see my “baby” sister for her birthday, also Trevor and Mike were there. It was a great conference, and good to catch up with my Californian relatives.

Other items that have happened in the last year or so since my last post, my sister got married, and graduated from nursing school, my brother moved to Sacramento, my other sister and her husband moved to Salt Lake, I got a promotion at work and we moved to a new house. Good times, and that’s it for now.

Also this video is hilarious and frightening all at the same time, it's not too political so hopefully it's alright
