I'm Back … I Think

I haven’t posted anything on my blog in 2 months. This is the longest time in between blog posts since I started blogging in 2005. I don’t really like this lack of blogging. Life was far busier than it normally is for me and the majority of my energy was focused on making it from day to day trying to be a decent follower of Christ, husband, dad, son, friend, and employee, rather than blogging … or for that matter fishing, running or riding my bicycles. Thankfully life has calmed down.

I suppose this means that I will begin to blog (as well as run, bike, and fish) a little more often. I’m not going to do it right now because I am watching the Packers/Bears game and this basically meaningless post is the best I can do while watching the game. I, however, will tell one brief story.

This past week I bought a new pair of waders for duck hunting. I am pretty pumped about them because they are breathable and I was able to get a great deal on them. Two days ago I decided to pull them out and let a little of the “new wader smell”escape from them. Mhmmm I love that “new wader smell.” So I sat them on couch in our living room to air out. That was fine and dandy till Montana, our female basset hound, decided she needed to go pee at 3 a.m. In the dark it is amazing how much these waders looked like someone just randomly sitting on my couch. I didn’t scream when I caught their “sitting” figure on the couch, but I may have come close.
