Today is the birthday of old 'what's his name', you know...Emerson's Dad. It's kinda sad to see how fast he is aging. He has gotten so old now that Emerson has to help him blow out the candles on his cake.
Emerson's favorite thing at his Dad's party was a 'Whoopee Cushion' inserted in one of the birthday cards. That Emerson sure fits in with the rest of the StalkerClan. Come to think of it, that may be why Erik is aging so fast.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ERIK
The Schell's would like to announce the new arrival of our little deer! Ted and Chris brought him in on Sunday and he was received warmly by the family.
The boys have bonded with Chris and Ted. Like Jeremy said, "Uncle Ted and I can communicate!"

Ted and I were sitting in the waiting room for his pre-op doctor’s appointment. We were talking and bantering back and forth and laughing like we usually do. Another couple was sitting across from us. The guy got up and walked away to take a cell phone call. While he was gone the lady asked how long we had been married and we told her 26 years. She told us her life story. She had been married three times. Each time it started out great but after ten years they ended up hating each other and getting divorced. She was now in year eight of her third marriage. She said “You both seem so happy. What’s your secret to a good marriage?”
I suggested that she might want to encourage her husband to become a long distance trucker.
Ted suggested that she start getting divorced after about three years while they could still stay friends.
Finally I said, “I guess our secret is that we live in separate houses ten miles apart. We only see each other once a week.”
If anybody needs counseling we are available and cheap.

On my trip to Road Creek, Daddy was working like a little beaver. He said he has felt better since having his neck surgery. He went down to the bottom and mowed off his lot. He wanted me to take some pictures of his garden and the beans he has coming on, 'so it will grieve you all', he said. He had a good meal of beans, corn and blackberry cobbler.

Jut had a real fight on his hands to keep his Million Dollar Pie.
I think he did end up giving them a very small piece each.
