Ya, so I looked to see what everyone else was doing for Spring Break and it appears that people actually do have them. This week is spring break for me too, and i’m currently chilling in a luxurious environmental services trailer waiting for someone to show up with their laptop so I can fix it. outside of this immaculate aluminum getaway is an ash haul road where huge dump trucks are driving by. the peace and serenity provide the perfect touch to my spring break treasure.

Really, things are going great! Amanda & I are getting back into the school groove, and i’m trying to figure out how to balance work and work and school and then some amanda. Not an easy task, but we are getting taken care of and I’m sure everything will work out.

This last weekend was the gymnastics recital that went great! The music was all the right length and the kids performed awesome! We even had a fund raiser for the Rodeo Club. I’m so glad there are things here for the youth of the community, and I love to participate in it because I once got to partake in all the fun, and because my son will be of age to do so in a number of years. Hopefully he can enjoy some of the small town, simple enjoyment that I did myself.

On that note, the badge on our blog says another 100 days until Rustyn will make his appearance. While there is three numbers in that date it still seems like it is just around the corner and there is next to no time to get ready for it.

So we are sitting here at the end of our day looking at books and homework, and I turned to Amanda and told her how she needs to be updating our blog. She turned back to me and said, “with all the time that I have…” I said the same thing and figured that if I didn’t just do something now it probably wouldn’t happen because this weekend is going to get INSANE! We have the gymnastics recital this weekend, and we will be very busy herding little kids. Things have been very busy lately and we have both been feeling that with Migraines. I have been trying to relax in the midle of all these things to keep it from coming back, but that isn’t working out too well.

Pretty much life if going well, and we have been very blessed in our lives especially with our son. Only three more months of getting to sleep and then we will see about whining about migraines..

Real quick,

I cleaned up the Dare Family blog from the last extravaganza we had and rethemed it to something more fitting.  Check it out, it’s been a blast playing together online.  http://darefam.blogspot.com/ <– in case any of y’all forgot.  Hit it up, and post away. We talked about a kids session online.  Let me know when we wanna do that, and I’ll have my little sister over.

So we finally got out of town for the weekend! This week has been insane so getting out is relaxing, and much needed. The whole week started with my not being able to fall asleep Sunday night, so I got up at midnight and started working on our Cisco stuff at work that needed upgrading. At four I headed in and finished up some work and was home around 10, but then crashed until 3 that afternoon.

I had two tests looming over my head for school, and they plagued me the whole week because I never had ample time to dedicate to my books. Wednesday, I got home from work and got ready for Matthew came over for 24, and ten minutes into being home I got a call that the Hudson’s furniture store had a water line broke. The next three hours and some Matthew and I helped out the ward move things in and out of the furniture store. We still ended up watching 24 and then crashing to bed. Thursday I was in knots, and studied like mad. The tests ended up being much less than I had anticipated, and I did fine. When I got home we got ready to go to the Ward’s Valentines Day Party that I DJed, and then back home to bed. Friday I had to fix three computers before we could head out, so about 9 we were ready to go..

Shutdown: %windir%System32shutdown.exe -s
Reboot: %windir%System32shutdown.exe -r
Logoff: %windir%System32shutdown.exe -l
Standby: %windir%System32rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState
Hibernate: %windir%System32rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState Hibernate

I was messing with our blog this evening, trying to get acquainted with WordPress, and I came across this pic.  I think this is where my intrigue for Apple Computers was reignited..

Sunday has come and the Sabbath is such a refresher from the week.  It has been intense and full of a good ammount of craziness.  I have been trying all weekend to get solid time for my homework, but something has always been in the way.  Even now as I’m trying to type up this post someone called and has distracted me from even doing this.

Friday I got called into work at 6:30a because a server took a dive, and then got busy the rest of day.  Yesterday I ended up building and mending fence with my dad so I got home about 4:30 and then was busy until the evening.  Now it’s almost six and I’ve touched on each of my subjects just a little bit.  I best get back to things, but i’m going to give twitter another shot and if nothing else it will be a microblog on wesmcb.com, so if you are twittertastic then friend me up @zeronome

a little side-action… here’s out goofy animals..  I’m looking for your best captions for them in the comments.. here’s my shot..
