Oh Hey, Hi There

I realize no one reads my personal blog anymore. I’m going to assume that is because I never write anything in it anymore. Well I would like to announce the biggest news in the life of DanGarion since he got married to the love of his life in 2006.

 

We are going to have a baby!

Yes you read that right. Kelly and I are expecting and will be the owners of a brand new spanking baby in and around mid June. How did this happen you ask? Well when a man and a women really truly love each other a stork comes to their door and knocks on it. A stork that looks much like the one one from the Vlasic Pickle jars. He drugs the happy couple and gets them to play patty cake. A couple weeks later the female feels like something is different, she pees on stick and viola pregnancy! From our calculations the stork drugged us around 16 weeks ago, which means the baby pop out right around June 20th. It will be a Christmas Miracle!

Holy shit that is only 6 months away?!?!? Honestly I knew that already but typing it out makes it even more real. I’m excited, for a long time there I wasn’t sure whether or not I really wanted kids (this after always wanting to have kids). But I had been thinking a lot about extending our family this past year, so this was great news to find out.

Other than that big news there isn’t really much more going on. We haven’t seen any movies in the theater since Looper. We’ve been watching some great TV though; The Walking Dead, Homeland, Game of Thrones, and Burn Notice have all been great thus far. I’ve got a number of new Board Games this past year, most recently for Christmas I got, Arhkam Horror, Elder Sign, Confusion, The Resistance, and I’m waiting for two Kickstarter project board games to be delivered Tammany Hall and The Great Fire of London. We’ve been doing monthly game nights on the first Saturday of the month for nearly a year now and it’s been going great.

All of our crazy animals are doing well, Buster, Milo, Rowlf, Elvis, and Sassy are characters in their own way. Sassy is finally starting to come out of her shell after a year of being anti social and she even walks around the house while the dogs are inside, although she still hisses at them, but we’ve come to accept that she will always do that.

I’ve got my garden area expanded with the fence I built in the summer, and now we’ve covered the ground with a layer of cardboard, mulch, and leaves. Now it’s time to wait for the grass to die there and start really growing veggies. Of course time will be limited once summer comes around with the new baby, but we will make it work.

That is about it for now. As always I’m going to promise here that I will be writing more in my blog, and I honestly mean I will try. I’m going to stop focusing on my food blog and start focusing on my personal blog with the coming new year. We will have lots of things to share as things get closer to launch.

Stay tuned…
