From Feb., 05 thru July, 06 I was a stay-at-home-Dad and grew a little too used to it, if you know what I mean.<br /><br />When we moved to Poplar Grove, I took the ever-popular truck driving class, got the ever-popular Commercial Drivers License, and became a trucker, my week spent zooming about the Midwest delivering goodies, my weekends trying to catch up on sleep and family life. While I will always be glad I did it, for all the money I was making, most of it went in to keeping me on the road all week - it created more expense and hassles than it was worth. Plus, I missed my family. Sleeping in a truck cab loses its romance pretty quickly (as does stepping out of your cab three days before Christmas in the Twin Cities; who knew so may people could live where it's so freakin' cold?!?).<br /><br />So, I grok, lady. Just don't get too cozy . . .Geoffrey Kruse-Saffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11242660591954094499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3221819058568684886.post-83754667977303234102009-12-15T16:12:09.949-05:002009-12-15T16:12:09.949-05:00LOL.

You are so funny. <br /><br />My sister's a classical musician, and I don't think she much cares where people get their references, as long as they're still hearing the music somewhere. It's definitely an art form in retreat, as are so many others (correspondence and conversation, to name a couple that I miss more every day). We are a culture in a time of transition.<br /><br />Glad to hear you're using your transition time to such a good effect!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11454557080455458675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3221819058568684886.post-2676063480689099202009-12-15T11:38:34.853-05:002009-12-15T11:38:34.853-05:00Even after showing my kids the CDs, I'm still ...Even after showing my kids the CDs, I'm still not sure they believe that Wagner wrote that, and not Bugs Bunny.<br /><br />Your kids never swear.

Id' written about some joking that went on between Nathan and Chloe, but as Bill pointed out with his very nice, but concerned comment, I didn't do a very good job of conveying that the joking was just that - joking. So I removed it because I don't want you to get the wrong idea about my kids.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />The Managementlisahgoldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11158660223296807317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3221819058568684886.post-59420442524533503202009-12-14T12:39:24.610-05:002009-12-14T12:39:24.610-05:00What makes you think he'll outgrow foul langua...What makes you think he'll outgrow foul language, bad behavior, being opinionated and the rest?<br /><br />Chances are he'll meet girls who say and do the same things.
