From all of us here at MacDaddy's Grill...



We love you and hope you have a wonderful, wonderful day!!!

Simply Tuesday...

I have busted my hump the last couple of days getting things done around here.

Let me tell you...I feel the pain. My heart is willing, but my body says...what the hell are you doing to me?

My yard work is not for the faint of heart. It's tough doing things by yourself, especially when you are in my age range.

I'm no Spring Chicken anymore...but I refuse to lay down and pass the buck...or spend the bucks...when I can do it on my own. I'm just not as fast as I use to be. I'll get it done...


On another note:


One of my girls has a B-day tomorrow. Who is it?

She is blond, beautiful, and a sweetheart with a heart of gold.

Come back tomorrow and find out...who this lovely lady is.

Weekend Report...



I believe my To-Do list will become almost nonexistent by next week. I'm off to a good start...

But, is that always a good sign? Sometimes it is...sometimes it ain't.

Most folks, will goof off for a few days, then, try to get motivated and tackle "The List".

I like to hit the ground running...

Get ahead of the game. When old man Winter finally takes a powder...it's time for this white boy to get his game on.

Now it is true, this spring at least, that me and the grass have been having some major smack downs.

The rain has been a major pain. Having to let the grass dry out enough to attempt to give it a hair cut.

It's like when your parents said "You need a hair cut."
Just take a little off the top. - you would tell the barber.

The barber would look at your dad, your dad would nod...

Oh no...not the nod.

You had a flat top hair cut that would rival a fresh cut lawn in May.

If you had a flat top, most kids would say you had a grass hair cut.

Uh B.D. where are you going with this?

That's simple Jethro...

The grass has just been getting a little off the top. Yesterday, it got a little more off the top. Tuesday, it's going to get a flat top hair cut.

I will finally be ahead of the game in that department. This will allow me to get to other things, which will in turn, allow me to cut down the size of my list, which will in turn, allow me to snow ball that forward momentum for optimal smack down, which in turn, will allow me to relax, enjoy the weather, cook, and goof off...


Oh yeah babe...

This & That...

Free at last, free at last...the whole world can kiss my ...

Well...

Things have been crazy for a while. But I am on the downhill slide.
(downhill slide is a southern slang for Woo-Hoo!!!)

We've been worked to death, and now we're being put out to pasture for a week. (southern slang for laid off)

Time to get some yard work done, drink some beer, do some cooking and forget the world. Dang...I've got a busy week ahead of me.



Better get started!

Pizza, Hot Wings & Onion Rings...

Sorry kids...it has been a mad house at work...



I won't rant or bitch or cuss or show my behind about the lunacy that has invaded my life these last few weeks because of work...

Like I said...in my line of work, I'm lucky to be working.

But...

I'm trying to stay (how should I say) mellow...

Trying my utmost...to stay calm...to keep my ship steady in a sea of turmoil...and the crashing waves of stupidity pound my ships hull with such force it endangers myself and my crew...

I will kid you not, it is the hardest thing I have ever done...

I have...in my lifetime, dealt with hardships and heartaches, pain and loneliness, love and hate, pride and prejudice, anger and stupidity...

But dealing every day, with a bunch of college educated idiots...

Takes every bit of stringent inner fortitude I can muster. This has become a major pain in the butt...for me, my family and my friends.

Right now, everything on (my end) is on hold...but the inner sanctum of stupidity still rears its ugly head and screws with my life...and my mind.

The war has started...

Weekend Report...

Sorry...I've been ignoring you.



What a week...

I'm trying to get things done in the yard - trying to get ahead of the grass (but I'm just barely keeping up with that) in between rain, work, ball practice, or some other bullshit...there is just not enough time.

I can't cook...

Seems like anytime I do get ahead...something comes up and puts me behind again. I've given up on trying to compete in any contest (BBQ) that just ain't going to happen.

I try to set it up and..."Oh sorry guys, we have to work 12 hour days and you just can't take any time off."

Now...in my field of work...I'm lucky to still have a job, but the idiots that call the shots there are going to get us all fired.



You know the old saying, Go with the flow, this is like trying to ride out the rinse and spin cycle of a washing machine without a seat belt.

Anyway...

Sorry...I've been ignoring you.

The sun is out right now but look at this...



It's coming.
