As the title states, there just isnt much going on in my world, but Ill write just a little so that Im not considered a slacker!  My daughter graduates from High School in just over a month.  Any ideas on a graduation gift for her?  She wants a simple get together with friends and family on the Saturday of her Graduation, so that saves us a bit of money.  Hopefully the weather will be good(it usually is in Colorado).  The bike is taking a breather for the time being.  My jackets zipper came apart, so its being repaired and both tires are pretty smooth, so there are replacements on the way.  Those biker leather jackets are pretty darn expensive, so repairing it was my only option.

My summer project of building a small barn is going.................well, NOT going is probably the best way to describe it!  The holes are dug for the poles, but I still need to go lay out in the field and scoop out the dirt that dropped back in before I can get an inspection.   My wife is eagerly anticipating the removal of the 14 6x6s from her side of the garage!!!  (Theyve only been there for about 2 months already!)

My parents are moving to Colorado Springs this next week, so I will be helping them move things into storage until their home is ready to move into.  For those of you with little ones running around the house, you know the value of having parents living close by for childcare issues...........I always hated the whole "babysitter" thing.  Its hard enough to afford the date, without having to come home and shell out another 20 bucks for the sitter.  With my youngest already 8 years old, we will soon not be needing babysitters!!!  Yeah!!!

Work is work.  We are in a transition from 5 areas of specialty to 6.  I have to learn two new sectors and will start training in a few weeks.  Leave in the summer will be pretty slim and hard to come by, so guess Ill get to save some for a change.

I guess thats enough to avoid "slacker" status.  Have a great day/week!!!

Scotty, Look into PODS for your parents storage needs. The benefit is they drop them off at your door for loading and unloading, they also store them. Actually a great idea, be it more expensive.
