It has taken some getting used to being back on the old morning show schedule!  I’m back to having it feel semi-normal to wake up at 2am.

The morning show is going good…  Although the live streaming has been down for a few weeks (It was so nice that so many of you have been listening online!  I’ll let you know when it’s back up.)  I’m way better with all the technical equipment, getting more familiar with the Antelope Valley and I really like my new boss.

It is weird how working further away makes you appreciate being home more, you kind of see all your surroundings with fresh eyes.

I’ve been kind of bummed the last few weeks knowing the kids are going to be out of town for Father’s Day…  This will be my first Father’s Day since having them that they have not been with me.  Anyway, I’m not going to make my first post in a long time a downer!

Stench and I were able to get together for lunch today.  We still have not nailed down a date or place for our next live pod… We will, Stench wants to perform some stand up and we haven’t been out in a long time.

I’m trying to motivate, there have been some projects I have wanted to work on (this blog being one of them!)…  I am going to try and compile some photos into a book, but I’ll have more information on that when I actually do it.

I got a Razor Pro Model Scooter because the kids have really been into riding their scooters…  It’s harder on the knees than I thought it would be (Or maybe I’m just old).  It has been fun to all ride together… We’re kind of like an extremely small, slow scooter gang!  We’ve doing a good bit of bike riding too… Although I still don’t have Bing off of training wheels.  He wants to learn, but then gives up pretty quickly… I’m not pushing him though, he’s the kind of kid that will just one day decide he doesn’t need them and will ride two wheels from that point on.

Speaking of Bing, he’s been getting really good at recognizing words and spelling (I’m so proud of both kids, they are both very into words and spelling!)…  He was very excited to find a book with his name in it. Arnie, the Doughnut is a book about a doughnut that gets purchased by Mr. Bing and doesn’t want to be eaten…  I have read it to my Mr. Bing like a million times he loves it (Not as much as The Grinch That Stole Christmas which he has totally memorized, but it is a close second.)

As I’ve been writing this Lucy has been texting me from out of town… I guess her recent interest in texting is a preview for what I will be in for when she gets her own phone!

OK, I’m sorry for rambling, I’m just trying to get back into the blogging groove.  I will post again soon!

Thanks as always for reading, listening, following and liking me.

Rock On, Jack

It’s looking like I may have a real radio job very soon… Although, I’m not counting my chickens until they’re hatched!

The kids in radio club continue to do a great job, I’m hoping to have their first show to share with you all soon.

Bing amazed me the other day, we were reading a book that we often read the other day and he asked if he could read it.  Remember they’re not at my house everyday, so it’s not like we get the chance to read this book nightly and he doesn’t have a copy at his Mom’s…  He nailed every word in the book without any help from me.  I know it’s memorization, but it was still impressive… And it’s not one of those 8 page cardboard books!

I’ve been having a lot of fun at CRN, I have been able to co-host many of the shows here and the web stuff is going great.  In fact, I’ll be co-hosting Welcome To The Mommyhood again this Sunday, last week was so much fun!

Now they’re charging for carry-ons!  Cop gets porked.   Bigfoot is in AZ.  Racist dog slashed.  Muffin squeezer! Toebelina.

Rock On, Jack
