When i was young, It seemed that life was so wonderful

Living the life of a plumber has been about what I expected. I have gained a decent amount of strength as well as many hours of experience on tools ranging from a sawsall to a jack hammer. I have stood to my ankles in raw sewage and balanced on the beams of a house frame. All in a days work I say, but you are more than likely to find me changing a water heater out or repairing a broken/clogged drain.

My love is gone these days. She has left with the prep team for the mexico trip we will all be leaving for Thursday morning. I would say my bed is cold at night without her, but I do have jackie who seems to know that she is allowed to sleep on the bed while Brielle is away.

I have strayed from the blogging world over the last few months. As I read the posts of my friends it makes me miss them. If you all, or maybe just some of you, are reading this from time to time I say hello to you.

I won't promise to fill you all in on the great stories that you missed not being here although I have partially composed a few of these mentally with the follow titles: "So were you in the shit? Yeah, I was in the shit", "Jackys 'Outdoor' Habits", and "First hand witness to an 80 year old woman all but being run over by her own car while we push it to the side of the road and literally dragging her by her trouser leg and shirt to kept her legs away from the tire since she refused to let go and roll."

Stop and listen to a good song tonight. If you need any suggestions just let me know. And if you are feeling sorry for yourself tonight stop and say a prayer for Adam, Laura and the rest of the world.

Now watch what you say or they´ll be calling you a radical a liberal, oh fanatical, criminal. Oh won´t you sign up your name we´d like to feel you´re acceptable, respectable, oh presentable, a vegetable!

P.S. I just got a letter saying that Brielle and I won a free nights stay at a sweet Hotel in Portland (5th Ave. Suites) because our painting was chosen as the best one from January when we were there for our honeymoon.

And who said art never paid?

Hi Matt!

Good to hear you're doing well. Congrats to Brielle for recent tangible fruits of her artistic pursuits! Finally, have a great time in Mexico while working there.

that was a triumphant return, my friend. i would beg to hear the story about the old lady being run over by her own car, but i think what you put maybe tells the whole story...

Hey fat guy. Glad you're blogging again. Thanks for the new number. Just in case you were wondering, the old one's disconnected. Yep.

Finally. Can't do that again, you're only allowed to stop posting once per wedding.
