My weekend

Well, the KC trip went great. We went to the Kansas City Zoo, we saw monkeys, gorillas, yaks, lions, cheeta's.....well, you know zoo stuff. We walked about 30 miles...ok, it was only about 4, but for a fat guy, it was enough. We stayed in a hotel and went for a swim in the pool there. The following day consisted of shopping, eating and general fun stuff for the kids. They really loved it.
We took the kids to the Musicians friend store and we all bought some instruments and stuff. It was fun too. Mainly for me! We got home Friday late afternoon and my 2 oldest kids went to a birthday party.
Today was nice too. My wife and the 2 older kids went to Joplin for the day and Molly hung out with me. We had some alone time packing up some things to ship, going to the flea market and worship practice at the church. I go back to work on Sunday night for a 60 hour stretch. I had applied for a position as a supervisor but did not get it as my co-applicant was a former officer in the military and has more supervisory experience than I do. It is ok though, I am looking forward to working with him. Seems like work is shaping up to be even more enjoyable for me. I already like my job, now I will have a great working relationship with everyone on my shift. As I am told by the big dog, we are getting Dish network as early as Monday. Not that TV is the greatest thing, but try and work in the same building for 48 hours strait with NO stimulation. I have managed to do ok, I have increased my reading and will be starting a new book Monday that My wife got for me. But decent TV will be good.
Please feel free to leave comments or communicate as you like. I will put some more EMS stories on my blog if people want them. DJ
