Clean Potty Mouth

Hello fellow readers. Welcome to another edition of my weekly blog post. This week saw a holiday that was spent doing errands and not much else. The errands were as follows - I had blood work at the doctors and had my van's brakes fixed and window fixed. This time I was surprised how quick the doctor got the lab results back. It was all good news. I had taken myself off the statins last year because they made me feel weak. My doctor didn't like that, but my cholesterol actually came back normal…See More

Diet Star Wars Message

Welcome to my weekly update. What has been going on with me? Dieting, playing Star Wars The Old Republic and trying to figure out what God is telling me. First I shall start off with the dieting aspect. I have called my cheat and treat diet a failure and have moved on, even though it is still in the app store for anyone who want to give it a go. So come the new year I started a simple low cal diet: switching from pepperoni sandwiches to turkey sandwiches for lunch, drinking more water and not…See More

New Year

Wow, so it has been a while since I have written. This Christmas I kind of laid low. Took it easy. Relaxed. I needed that and it was an easy one. I did not have to go anywhere. Everyone came down here. On Christmas day it was us and the moms. The next day my step brother and his kids came over and we had fun. Then the next day my sister and her family came over.I think no one is reading this blog anymore since it has been a while. I really don't know what to write anymore anyway. I think this…See More

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to my family and friends. I am taking a break from my hiatus to write a Christmas letter on my blog. Our shining star this year has been Brennon. He has grown by leaps and bounds. He started off barely communicating and now he knows all his letters, numbers, shapes and colors. He still has maintained his cuteness and he still looks like me ;-) Right now we are working on potty training. He is ready. He has even had bouts of success with it. The key is giving him Angry Birds…See More

Hiatus

So I haven't been blogging lately. I am on hiatus. My Cheat and Treat Diet has dropped to like 2 downloads a day. I have learned that there really is one shot at iPhone notoriety and that is at the beginning. I bet everyone gets 4000 downloads when they are on the "new" list. Then money must be put into advertising or word of mouth makes it grow. I of course will not invest any more into my ventures. It must be spread by word of mouth. RideSearch burned me out on spending money on my ideas. I…See More

Dancing Mustache

So this weekend Holly and I went to a club and went dancing. It was at the Gaylord Texan hotel called the Glass Cactus. It was a nice club for the over 30 crowd. They had a cover band with a good guitarist whose style reflected my own. I thought that could have been me up there. Anyways it was fun.I have grown a mustache in the meantime and am participating in Movember. It is an organization that raises money for cancer awareness. I tell you it is weird having a mustache. It has grown on me an…See More

Thank you Vets

Special thanks to all the veterans out there . I played guitar at the VFW many times and have great respect for their service. I work with a veteran and hear his stories of Iraq and am amazed at how life changing the experience is, especially when you are in combat.So I have been playing Battlefield 3 and can tell you this games graphics are very realistic. This is not a game for under 18 year olds. The swearing is enough to offend. The sad thing is the kids are line up around Best Buy to get…See More

Heart Tub

So what have I been thinking about? Well obviously my diet app is on my mind. I have had over 2600 downloads and 12 cookies of shame bought. So in a week I get around $10. Of course I have plans for an ad free version that costs a buck. Then there is the question of how to market it. You have got to reinvest the money into ad to get people to download it. The whole thing is a bunch of work and it may not be worth it. But I was thinking about how this diet is completely unique. RideSearch had…See More

Weekend

So this weekend was good. My dad, his girlfriend, Aunt Linda and my sister all came down to see my mother. We went to Trulucks on Friday night. They are close to the top in steak in Dallas. It is good to see family, especially during this time period. Mom was in good spirits as well.On Saturday everyone came to my place. I showed them the Kinect. Even mom stood up to do bowling. The great thing about the Kinect is that anyone can play because there are no buttons to push. You jut act like the…See More

Announcing the Cheat and Treat Diet

I would like to announce my app is now available in the app store. It is free to all. It is called the Cheat and Treat Diet.This app took me a year to make. I spent my free time learning C++ with the Marmalade System Developers kit. It was fun. I am now going to start making videos for its Facebook page on how to use it and how I am doing on it. Wish me luck!See More

Happy Halloween!

So today is Halloween. I got Brennon a costume when I was in DC at the smithsonium space museum. Brennon is going as an astronaut. He has an orange jumpsuit with NASA patches. I will post pictures of it later. We are going to the Fall Festival at our church. They have 100 bounce houses and candy galore. Kids are lucky nowadays.Tomorrow is the big announcement of my app and my diet blog. To all my blog readers go to the app store and search for cheat diet or motivium. That should get you to it.…See More

The Facts of Life

Here I am in DC. Technically Dulles, which is west of DC so there really isn't much to see. I am in town for three days on training. There is a lot of fall foliage. We don't have much of that in Texas. Anyways I will be glad to get back. I did FaceTime with Brennon yesterday and he said "Hi dada" and had a tear in his eye. Too cute. He misses me.Life is always complicated. People often ask Holly and I if we are going to have another kid. The answer is, yes, when we quit having miscarriages.…See More

I Owe S 5

So lately I have been upgrading my iPhone to the new IOS operating system and syncing some 500 apps over wifi. We also got Holly the new iPhone 4GS since her contract has expired. Her phone is now better than mine. I have played around with Siri and have to say it is unbelievable. To have a phone that understands your speech in context is wild. You can say something like "how many miles is it from here to chicago?" and it will then say here it is: 967 miles. What it does is have multiple…See More

Enjoy Life

Let's see. Mom has started receiving visits from hospice to her room where she lives. They just stop by to see if she is comfortable. This whole thing puts me in a somber state. The doctor told mom last week that she has months to live and not years. Of course to maintain a positive attitude I tell mom that no one can know the time or place. When God wants you, he'll take you. Mom agrees and is like ok with it all. She is stronger than I am sometimes. Anyways, life is complex. You should enjoy…See More

What was your favorite Halloween costume?

For me it would have to be my terminator costume. Its eye would light up with an LED light and the makeup made it look real. That was really cool. I remember the black leather jacket I had in high…Continue
