Week Two

Week two of training starts in less than an hour.  I’m ready but I’m not.  I could use one or two more days off.  I’m eating breakfast and drinking coffee trying to wake up.  The trash truck is making an obnoxious noise outside.  What an absurd hour to be picking up trash in an apartment complex - everything echos off the buildings and makes the sounds that much more obnoxious.

Milo is the only one who was willing to get up with me.  Brinkley spread out on my half of the bed like I’d been cramping his style.  Two more days and I’ll have more bed room again.  Brent flies out on Wednesday morning.  I was thinking Thursday.  

The weekend was a busy one.  Brent and I went to the range on Saturday to shoot guns.  I needed to sight in my rifle for deer season or my brother was going to disown me.  Things went well.  I’m starting to get feeling back in my right shoulder!  I’m horribly out of practice and will be lucky if I hit the broadside of a barn during hunting season.  Brent and I are strategizing though - we’re going to see about joining one of the nearby ranges so we can go more frequently.  I want to shoot some western style competitions.  I need a little lever action .22 or something.  

We hit up Sportsman’s Warehouse yesterday.  I needed more ammo and I was hoping to find some orange.  It was slim pickings in the orange dept. but I was able to find some Latte hard candies so it wasn’t a complete waste of trip.  Ha!  I also found some new sunglasses for narrow head!  Serious, finding sunglasses is as bad as shoe shopping - hardly anything fits!

We ate at Buffalo Wild Wings for lunch yesterday.  We watched the last quarter of the Broncos game while we were there.  It was pretty cool to see.  I’m not much of a football fan but seeing an underdog who everyone has been rooting for all season come back in the last three minutes was pretty darn cool.  That’s the only time football is worth watching.  

Anywho, has some fall fun at mom and dad’s last night.  Picked some apples from my dad’s tree!!  Not sure yet what I’m going to do with all of the ones I brought home but they sure are yummy!  We also made some rice krispy treat pumpkins!  I’ll try to take a photo before we eat them all.

And now I must hurry up and get ready for work.  Blah.
