I have been a walk heat wave. Mother nature really turned up the heat towards the end of last week in Phoenix. Then starting Sunday the humidity started to rolling in and made a miserable situation, that put our A/C units on overload. Sunday night our A/C went out in the house that lead us to staying at my mother-in-laws house. Monday morning I got into my work to find out the A/C was out in it. Then I decided I would stop at a Jack in the Box to cool off when I was on my route. When I walked in it was very hot in the restaurant and the employee said sorry about the heat but our A/C is out. I felt like I should apologized to her for being the A/C killer.

The 4 dollar date.
This Sunday the wife and I went out for dinner and a movie. We have been accumulating gift cards from as long as 1 and 1/2 years ago. We don't have a lot time to go out and enjoy things like this. We went to Cheesecake factory and to see the proposal. The date night only cost 4 dollars after we used our gift cards.

Extremely busy time.
The past couple of weeks have been extremely busy for me and I'm glad to be back to blogging. I have applied and interviewed for 3 new positions at my work and ended up getting 1 of them. I will not be starting it until August 1st but that will give me time to train the new guy coming into my position. I'm very excited that I will no longer be getting up at 2am. The new position will require me to get up around 5am or so which is still early but not 2am. I turned 30 on the 24Th and now I'm officially old. I'm preparing for the July 4Th holiday, my vacation which is coming very soon, and making sure all things are in order for the new guy to take over my route. So I guess I also have busy times ahead. That's my update for know, hope you all enjoy me talking about me, and keep visiting.

Wow, I'm 30.
I have passed another milestone in my life and it is better then I ever could of imagined. When my parents turned 30 and I remembered thinking, what will my life be like when I'm 30. Will I have a house, a cool truck, will I be rich? These are the things that I thought would be important to have when I was 30.
It turns out I'm much luckier then the kid in me, wanted me to be. I have an amazing wife that is absolutely gorgeous, 2 beautiful little girls that are funnier then an comedian, and my health. What more could a 30 year old man ask for. I have some nice stuff, and a good job but that doesn't matter because with out my job and stuff I'm still the luckiest man I know. When I'm forty All I really want is my wife, my children, and my health. This is what a grown-up realizes is important.

Together forever.
Today I once again, was amazed by Google. Today I ran into a problem with removing the rear drum to change the brakes on my 2002 Toyota Sienna. Normally they just come off when you loosen the brakes and remove the tire. I then started beating it with a hammer thinking this would break it loose. This also failed. I was thinking maybe this vehicle is different and I need to loosen a bolt or something. I washed the hands and headed to my computer to ask Google. As always she delivered the answer to my question. She sent me to a site that solved a problem I was working on for about an hour. 30 seconds after I read the solution I had the drums off. There so many search engines out there today, but me and Google are staying together forever.

Starting the Wii Fit
I officially love my Wii more every day. Me and the wife received a Wii fit as a combo gift from my parents for our B-Day's this month. I have done 2 workouts on it and I love it. It is fun exercise. I was getting very bored of the treadmill at the gym and have been looking for something new. I think I have found it in the Wii fit. I'm sure it will get old one day and I will be looking for my next challenge. That is when a new game for the Wii balance board comes in. If I'm Lucky I will get the new punch out with the boxing gloves, and the Wii fit Balance board is also compatible. I bet that is a crazy good work out.

The waiting game.
I have always been a very impatient person. I want results and I want them now. I think that is why I love the Internet so much. It tells me what I want to know, when I ask it. This is also a reason I love being a salary employee and not hourly. I work hard and fast then go home, no clock watching. But when it takes time to get results I can't control. I hate it.
I interviewed for a new position in my company on Tuesday. They said they will let us know by Friday. The waiting is killing me. I will be ok if I don't get it I just want to know either way.
