I won't make SOP this year

Postby oldestof11 » Thu Jan 12, 2012 5:54 pm

I am sorry to say I won't make SOP this year. Pete, you might see me at Michaels' event if you show.

The reason is I will have about a 1 month old lil one to take care of.

What the he11! :shock: That's what the wife is for! Grab your set out of her purse, get in the truck, and go! :lol:

By the way, congratulations! 8) Start sleeping now, you won't get any for the 1st 6 months after the baby is born. Unless you luck out with one that sleeps thru the night right off the bat, but there aren't many of those. ;)

Both of mine were different,the girl never slept till she was about a year old,the boy slept all night after about a month.

Thanks guys.

If genes had anything to do with it, the kid will be sleeping through the night by 1-2 months. The wife slept through from day 1 and I was around 4 months. I am praying hard for this...

Yes, truck fund went from nil to nothing. However, OT is picking up and with as many projects as there are planned, it won't stop until this time next year. I dont think I ever thought I would say this but thank you EPA!

Also, my boss/fire chief just had a house in the country willed to him. He needs someone to take care of it and remodel parts of it. Which I may be able to work off the rent some.

We will see how everything goes.

She used to love riding in the truck. Now it makes her nuaseas (sp?). :roll:

Nauseous? :lol:

Good luck on the house deal, that sounds like it could turn out better than you might think.

Nah, my trucks stock so it can't be that. :lol:


Congratulations on the little one. It's tough at first, but as soon as you get used to the lack of sleep they'll be sleeping thru the night. My son would always fall sleep riding in my truck, so if he was having a particularly bad night, we'd load him in my truck and ride around for a few miles and he'd be fast asleep. I guess he was used to the noise and bumps after 9 months of hearing it all the time.
