LO ravvy... how's you been?? Well I hope.

J.. you doing ok mate? The holiday season is coming... you doing anything special?

....gm

varnull caught it. hehehee.

 

Not bad thanks! Not sure.. Shopping for presents etc at some point, hopefully some sort of job if I can still find one, and lots of revision for modular exams in January!

Anything much planned for the seasonal festivities yourself?

 

I'm hoping to go to Liverpool to see the Reindeer on Thursday next... If I can get some more than scanty details. (how long before they end up on bricks.. will santa get robbed etc etc.. I need to see with my own eyes)

That's about it really.. I don't celebrate that xmas crap.

 

Good to hear from you both.

Just gonna have fun with the kiddies here. They are such a joy, especially at that time of the year. lol. Gonna get a PSP for the oldest I think... any ideas or additions to that?? He already has a Wii, GameCube, and PS2.

...gm

 

Some headphones for the psp might be nice.

 

Thanks icanbe... I have a couple extra headsets laying around. I think they come with some don't they??

.....gm

 

Not sure, But I see bestbuy has them on sale right now.
You could always get them a PS3 and complete the collection ;-)

 

A good hard case for the psp.. the one with the speakers built in is nice, and a clip on screen protector

 

Now that's some good bit of advice. Thanks JR.

man how times have changed.when we were kids we couldn't wait to get home and go outside to play basketball (year around) baseball (summertime) football (fall and winter) even on the frozen ground and TV time was very limited let alone video games. I can still here my dad say if you don't turn off that TV now you can clean the garage out again lol. nowadays you can hardly get most kids out of the house

 

lololol.. you must have had a very clean garage.. but then again.. not so much choice of tv in the 60's.. we didn't even have all day tv.. and only 2 channels with kids stuff on it for a couple of hours in the afternoon.. not much incentive to sit there staring at it really.

 

Well as usual you don't have a dang clue!!!

He gets to play once or twice a week, if he's lucky. He plays basketball year round (practice 1-2 times a week and 2 games a week right now) and played baseball for the first this summer. IF I can help it he won't play football. I know first hand how hard that is on the body. 5 years for me and ONE year of college did me in!!! lol

Oh btw so you don't think he's some little fat-ass like his old man he is the star on his team.. he has scored 64 of the 95 points the team has accumulated in the last 3 games. 1st and 2nd graders btw.

Yep a little bragging by a proud father but I'm not letting the kid play the games like some parents do and he only gets to play them when homework is done and daddy isn't watching something on the TV like FoxNews or one of mommy's "shows". lol.

Well that was a little longer than intended. lol.

Sounds very good GM.. now if you could get that much exercise maybe the diet wouldn't be so essential?

I'm getting used to seeing my true colours under my posts.. It's been an odd and nervy few days being that open, but it's becoming normal now.. which is a relief... *phew*

 

@gm - try playing wii sport with him a couple of times a week, i played with my son the other day for an hour and a half and my arm is still killing me! I need to start taking more regular exercise! lol!

 

lol Jan yeah we had the networks only with a rooftop antenna. and GM good for you not letting the kids live on the console games to many kids do. as for losing weight GM we know you can do it. a couple tips keep your calorie intake between 1400 to 1600 a day drink lots of water NO pop, NO snacking between meals and get on the Treadmill at least 4 times a week 20 to 40 mins sessions and include some strength training twice a week if you can. calorie intake and the Treadmill is the key to losing the weight
