The wisdom of Holt.

In search of life's answers, you climb up the highest mountain to find the great and wise one. Yes, you find tloH.

I mean Holt. If you notice in the picture he has all the letters but the order needs a little work. Not bad for a 26 month old.

You ask the great wise Holt what is the meaning of life? He replies Uhh, tractor in the barn. This has become the answer of choice when Holt is asked a question that he is not sure of the answer.

example -

Why do you like the little mermaid? Holt's answer - Uhh, tractor in the barn.

Why don't you like to sleep in your bed? Holt's answer - Uhh, tractor in the barn.

Words of wisdom to live by.

We are truly blessed to have Holt.

I want to remind everyone that Friday is Happy Family Celebration Day. It is also the day when people pay attention to a paranoid rodent meteorologist wannabe. Make sure you do something special or spend some special time with your family.

Have a Happy Family Celebration Day! Give your family an extra long hug and kiss on Friday.

I'VE GOT A FEVER!

I was in Wal Mart just the other day thinking, I could be at a nice hotel in Dallas but instead I'm at Wal Mart and that's depressing. Why? you ask

because of the GREAT WINTER STORM 2007 Part 2 (the revenge of the winter storm) coming to a neighborhood near you this weekend! this storm has not been rated

We were supposed to go down to Big D but the fear of the unknown stop us.


What was the storm in Dallas going to do to their roads?
Is it safe to drive at night on icy patched road in south Oklahoma?
What if the second big storm comes early?

These are all unkowns that kept us in Oklahoma going to Wal Mart instead of being in a nice hotel in Dallas. Boooo! but were safe and that is good thing.

now back to the

GREAT WINTER STORM 2007 Part 2

If you remember where part one left us

kids out of school for a week and my family having cabin fever

My wife and kids were in our house from Friday until Wednesday morning which gave them cabin fever. The term cabin fever is kinda of an interesting phrase. I start thinking of the different fevers there are out there.

Cabin Fever - tired of being trapped in a cabin

Scarlet Fever - tired of the color scarlet red or tired of watching Gone with the wind

Hay Fever - tired of living on a farm

but fever can be used in a totally opposite way like

Football Fever - wanting football season to start right now

My advice to you before the GREAT WINTER STORM 2007 Part 2 is not to go stock up on food, water or fire logs but to go out and get a cowbell. The cure for a fever is

MORE COWBELL!
