audit’s thoughts.

So I’m a day late.

July 5th, 2008 | by audit |

My wife and kids won’t let me forget this one as I’m always early for everything and never late. I wanted to post about the 4th and what it ment to my family and myself as best as I could describe it but I really didn’t feel like doing anything but sitting/reclining back with a ice bag on my lower back trying to get the numbing feeling deep down to the nerves. That never happened and I went through the day in a lot of pain all day.

I was up all night also just watching TV and updating the OS in a spare Blackberry 8820 that I have laying around in case my 8810 decides that it doesn’t want to work anymore. While I was waiting for the updating as watching TV, I was thinking about the IRAQ war going on and how it’s affected my household. To be honest, the only things that have been affected is the cost of EVERYTHING that we buy. Gas prices are higher then I could’ve ever imagined, food prices are a joke also because the drivers need to raise their prices to get the food to the markets.

So how does that make me feel? PISSED OFF!!!! Robbery’s have gone up as well because people are losing jobs left and right and they need to feed their families. I can’t say I can condone what they are doing but i can also see in a sense where they are coming from if that’s why they are doing it. If it’s for drugs then I say we castrate them so they can’t breed anymore. I know I’d do anything to take care of my family and make sure they have a roof over their head and food on their plates, god only knows I’ve been doing that now since my kids were born. I always make sure they eat first and then I’ll eat what’s left over if I’m feeling up to it.

So what does the future hold for us? Each day that I wake up, (that is if I was able to sleep the night before), I always go in and give my kids a kiss on the cheek or forehead, whisper I love them, do the same to my wife and get on with my day. Today is going to be a great day outside as I look at the weather bar at the top of firefox, it shows that it’ll be 81 and sunny all day. So I’m thinking maybe we’ll take our dog to the dog park in Lake Orion and let her play with the other dogs, I’m sure my wife will go walking in the fields behind it and I’m sure if we go out then I’ll be taking a LOT of pictures. I sometimes wonder if I should have taken photography classes and gone into that field, it seems more stable to me then IT is and I love doing it just as much as I like doing IT work, hell actually more. It’s just so relaxing and there’s always a special moment that you can catch or a certain view of something that you just can’t forget.

I know that I could try to change fields but to be honest, being color blind kinda hurts that option, at least in my eyes. I try to read as much as I can but I was always told that it doesn’t matter how much you read, it’s doing it that actually teaches you and then there’s that gift of being able to capture that special shot that nobody else saw or was able to catch on camera.

So that’s my thoughts for the start of the weekend, it’s time to get a icebag on my back, refill my coffee cup,
go look at the kids and wife sleeping and make sure things are ready for my daughters camp trip next week.
