Bored

Bored with the internet???? Can you imagine someone being bored with the information of all time close to your fingertips? It’s just that I tend to visit a few choice sites that perk my interest for whatever reason and I get easily bored with the rest. Of course, my interests will perk up instantly if I need to know how to do something I have avoided trying over the last 50 something years. Like fishing (I know how, but don’t really know how if you know what I mean); cabinet making (I can work with wood but am not really very good at conceptual design and am not really patient); uh, setting up a home energy system. I have some interest in each of those but haven’t pursued them either because of lack of time or money.

I’ll tell you what I really want to do…

Build a massive custom tree house for the grandkids. Or maybe an indoor train track that runs all over the basement. Or maybe build a large custom swing set for the gk’s.

As you can tell, I’m really into having stuff around for my grand kids. Like most men I’m just a kid at heart anyway, and really get a kick out of them having fun.

For instance, this weekend Tony invited me to go to a movie with him, Chase and Hunter. After the movie we went to WalMart to get Taylor a birthday gift and Tony asked me to pick something out for my birthday too. I’m sure he expected me to visit the tool or sporting goods department, but instead found a remote control 4x4 rock crawler for me and the kids to play with. And, although it went through 8 AA batteries in 2 days, it as a load of fun. The only problem I had was making them share control of it.

Anyway, I’m still bored with the internet.
