Wow…got some good rain yesterday and this morning. Quite a few thunderstorms ripped through this part of Iowa. Even had our electricity pop off for a few seconds last night. At present, clear outside and sun is trying to come out.

We are going to leave this Tuesday morning about 9-10am to our sons’ home down in Missouri. They are heading to Hawaii on Wednesday, so we will be taking care of our 2 grandchildren while they are gone. They will be gone for 4 days. Grandkids are pumped! They are ready for grandma and grandpa to be taking care of them. One big reason? It means every night we go to Dairy Queen for ice cream, blizzards, etc. None around here and we rarely go to a DQ when in Des Moines, so this is like the time to pig out. That is all the grandkids talked about is last year when they went every night. Plus of course, getting to bond with us and vice versa.

We plan to be there for a week, not coming back home until the following Monday. But hey, told wife why rush? Not like we have to come back to a job or something. So we may stay longer. After all, they have a tri-story house, full bottom level with a bar (well stocked so I will be the bartender for myself), pool table (grandkids love to beat us in pool), a wii, an xbox, and a ps3, and more. Heck, they even have flat screen tv’s in all the rooms! Yes, lay in bed and watch tv. And I am sure we will be watching a lot of kid movies.

So probably will not be updating this blog or any other blog of mine for the next week or so. After all, going to be on a vacation and who wants to be on the net? Probably because the grandchildren will keep us so busy will not have any time to get on the net. Though I hope off and on to be on twitter.

Now the new plans. When I get back, I will be unloading a lot of sites and blogs of mine. Clear out quite a few to get down to my main blogs and just a few main sites. Realizing that I have too much going on and I do need to slow it down and take more time off the net.

The other big plan is to finally set up my own email list. Something I have been putting off too long. Will have it set so people can join my email list and stay up to date with me, get some good freebies I will not be sharing any other way, plus good (nah, make that great!) offers on new products that no one else will offer. So stay tuned for this.
