All fired up!

That’s what Lori says about Harley about this time every morning. She gets up, goes outside, eats breakfast and then, look out, she transforms herself from Harley the puppy into Harley the Hurricane! She jumps, pounces, bounces and flies across the living room biting any and everything in her path, including your toes if you don’t watch out. She starts her formal Schutzhund training next Wednesday and we were told to let her jump until then, ha.

Jag and Ty went to play basketball after school and Lori and I tried to watch the Black Panther but just couldn’t get through it. We can’t believe that was the number 1 movie in the Country! It wasn’t even watchable. Of course in today’s PC World, I’m probably a racist for saying that, ha.

Today we’re tackling more of the house and meeting with our builder and architect. We held off on closing on the lot until we sign off on the plans and convince ourselves we are for sure into this. The problem is up here you just cannot buy anything for a million dollars. Yup, you read that right, there are no houses worth anything for less than 1 million, (probably more like $1.2) up here. That’s why we’re willing to move 30 minutes down valley to Eagle and then if we look at any existing houses, we might as well build as then we get new construction and exactly what we want for the same price. Plus, we’re hoping it’ll be a fun thing to do, picking out finishes and designing things and stuff. Hopefully it doesn’t turn into a situation like that old movie The Money Pit. More to come but to put things into perspective, Tommy’s house up here would be $1.2 to $1.4 Million, ugh.

Another shooting yesterday by a bullied kid. I’m sure the Dems are already all over gun control but I’m sure they’re disappointed the kid didn’t use an assault rifle. Instead he had a family shotgun and a 38 revolver. I hope people finally understand that guns are just a tool and the real problem here is mental health and social media and how we are raising our kids these days. We willingly expose them to non stop violence in video games and movies and desensitise them to violence and then throw in social media where it says “my life is perfect, and if yours isn’t, you’re a loser”. Tackle that and you’ll see these senseless tragedies go down or stop. Oh well, the World is consumed by Prince Harry’s wedding so there’s nary a mention of the shooting anywhere on the news today. I’m sure they’ll be all over it next week but not as much as like I said, there was no evil assault rifle used.

Lori and I are headed to the gym. It’s supposed to rain in Denver all day but is nice up here. My buddy took me to the Winchester Collectors Show yesterday. Today it’s open to the public but yesterday was only open to dealers. They had some really nice guns upwards of $25,000 and more from 100 plus years ago. Of course I didn’t buy anything but they were cool to see. It was also good to see my buddy.

Off to the gym, lot’s to do, Jag has 4 more days of school and Ty has 8. hard to believe summer is almost here. Have a great weekend, God Bless.
