I am alone, man. Let me tell you, bachelorium, as a place, isn't all it's cracked up to be.
It's quiet. No matter how loudly you play your music.
It's cold. No matter how much the sun is shining.
It's no fun. No matter how much you try to pack into a day.
Jodi and the children have gone to St. George for 5 days. 5 days never seemed so long.
I am pining. It's like waiting, but whenever I hear the word I think of someone in a Pine Forest, whittling something like a canoe, while he looks across the water anticipating the return of his loved one, or ones for that matter.
I miss them.
It's just me and the dog. I can tell he misses them too. Chewing on me isn't the same as chewing on someone younger. Although there's more to chew.
I haven't been sitting here doing nothing though. I was active today. My brother, Mike and my dad and I went for a bike ride today. Mike and I rode from my house to Antelope Island. About 50 miles round trip. My dad met us on the causeway and rode out and back with us from there. Then we stuffed ourselves with a whole lot of BBQ, then went to see Indiana Jones.
So, a little fun. But now I am in an empty house. I guess I will just curl up with a BBQ rib and fall asleep in front of the computer as I finish writing this.

I'm at work.....lonely...and I really want BBQ.Thanks
Brandon: It is DeAynne. Kevan is at scout camp and I have the 5 kids by myself. (Monday- Saturday) I know it seems long for you... but trust me, 5 kids alone? Sometimes, I want the BBQ and the quiet too. Just kidding. Hang in there. Trust me, Jodi is missing you too.
Glad to hear you are doing well. I have been traveling all this week. The first day day is refreshing then I get increasingly homesick.
When are you coming to Mississippi for a visit?
