Just wanted to show off Maddie. She is the daughter of Chris and Stacy. Chris, I would say, is my best friend. We may go a month or more and not talk, but we are always there for each other. He is more like a brother to me than anything else. We have helped each other thru some rough times. I love this picture of Maddie, so very precious. Amazing how innocent babies are.

And of course the obligatory picture of Bryce. He was being silly for his big brother. Jay is really taking to him now that he is more interactive. I think it's because jay has realized that Bryce is not gonna break.

Any way, just a few pics for today. Hope all is well. Drop me a line.

Hey how are you?

Hey folks, how's it going in your life these days? All here is good. Just rocking right along. Working, paying bills, and trying to maintain my sanity. LOL. Bryce is growing like a weed. It seems like everyday he is doing something new and growing before my very eyes. In the pictures above you see my Aunt Evelyn, she stayed with us while Gustav worked his way thru Louisiana. Needless to say Bryce enjoyed her stay. When I was a kid Evelyn was always spoiling me rotten, and she did the same for Bryce. Hated to see her leave, but she had to go back to see what damage had been done to her house. Bryce has learned that Papaw has a snack every evening, and that if he is persistent enough he can share in it. Think he really likes sugar free Jello. Bryce is really a happy lil fella. About the only time he really fusses is when he is sleepy, dirty, or hungry. He has four teeth across the bottom and the two middle teeth are just barely thru the gums.

As far as for me, work is good. Been busy of late. Seems that the good folks here in Memphis can't get go a day without shooting, beating, or stabbing one another. And of course the government of the city wants everyone to thing that it is just a garden spot. Yeah right! Oh well it keeps the bills paid.

Drop me a line and say HI! Stop just lurking around and leave a comment. Feedback is always welcome.

Stole that from a blog friend Cory. She works ICU in Nashville, TN. Shes a trauma nurse also. Hit her link in my list and check her out. Great blogger and has that interesting sense of humor that all of us nurses have.
Not a lot going on right now. Just working, paying bills, and living life. Waiting on this custody thing to be worked out. Hopefully the 24th of this month I will at least have the temporary order of custody. Lawyer says should be no problem. But you know how cynical I am. I believe nothing 'til I have paper in hand.
Got family up from Louisiana. They headed north to get away from Gustav. So far from what they have heard, as far as their homes are concerned it's only been minor damage. Some shingles off and a few trees down.
My cousin Terry and his wife, Wanda, are staying here at mom's and my aunt and some of my cousins are staying at my place in Jonesboro, AR. Shoot I can't even see my own house but I'm glad that my family is able to use it in their time of need.
Bryce is loving the extra attention from everyone. Wanda raises Poms and she brought all seven of hers here with them. Cute 'Lil things. Look like mini Chow Chows. Bryce will stand up at the back door and bang on the glass. He likes to watch them run around.
My prayers go out to the folks down on the coast. Please say a little one today for them also. Y'all take care.
