The New Woman In My Life

This is Enforcer. Right now he looks very, very angry at me. Well he should be. I got a new woman in my life. She's younger than my last one. She's bigger too, but sleeker. She's got an old fashioned name but that don't bother me at all. She's got it all where it counts also.

Oh and Michelle likes Mabel too.....

This is Mabel. (Had you going didn't I?) Mabel is a 2003 Ford Windstar. Claudia (my 1987 GMC Jimmy) was dying a slow and agonizing death. Drastic measures were taken before I would be left stranded on some back road in the middle of a snow storm with a screaming 2 year old. Mabel is sweet! Nice and roomy, she's great for me a nd hauling the Ladykiller around. We just got a TV from some friends and it fit perfectly in the back without removing the seat. She has the following: power doors, power pedals, entertainment center with a VCR, CD and cassette (good), a very well kept interior and engine, and rear warning sensor. She goes really fast without trying. The wife said something today about her car has been replaced as the family car. I love driving it and now know what a car made in this decade feels like on the road.

So, I'm sorry if i fooled you into thinking I was being bad. To make it up to you, before I go, here's a new video of Alex at a burfday party the other Sunday. Cuteness reigns surpreme. Catch you on the flipside!

Time Flies...

HI!!! How's things everyone? We'll just say it has been busy the past couple of weeks. And boy, have we been busy. I've been trying to keep up it all so here's what happened...

Sorry Phillies fans, it's Yankees here in Schaefferland. I'm not gonna instigate people (the Wifey made me promise)
So the other week the Swarrs paid a visit from their Los Angeles home. A late night ensued.

Farm Show came and went. Alex wanted to motor in this tractor, but...

Instead he settled in his new truck. Here's to hoping he doesn't drive like his father..
Speaking of the Ladykiller, he's doing fine. He dressed up as a farmer for Halloween. Here he's getting ready for Sunday School... Too cute for words. If his mother has anything to say about it,

he's gonna have longer hair than what he has here. Yes, ladies... The killer curls are still there somewhat.

So my baby is dying. She had her steering column replaced just 3 weeks ago. Now she's overheating a little bit. So I've started cleaning her out because I feel she'll won't make it til the end of the year. I love my GMC Jimmy, but, after 160,000 miles she's ready for retirement. I thing my next vehicle willbe a mini-van or some type of 4x4 that's a 4 door. I don't want to crawl in the back anymore to put Alex in his car seat.

That's the most of what's going on. Hopefully I'll be able to update again soon. Don't forget, I am thinking about you all out there fighting the good fight. Catch you on the flipside!!

Next Time: New Car? Turkey?
