Back in court again on Monday afternoon. The ex got severely reprimanded by the judge. She then had the nerve to argue with the judge. The judge got REALLY angry then.
Tuesday afternoon. Colton calls. He's at Grandma's house. His mother said to him that he could stay there for a few days. That it's okay to miss his visit with his dad on Wednesday. Okay, so that's revenge. But really, how pissed off does she want to make this judge. Because that's contempt of court. She could go to jail. But she says over and over again. "no judge is going to tell me what to do."
Well, we'll have to see what her lawyer advises her this time.
Three strikes this round and I'm taking it right back before the same judge.

Me in my new motorcycle jacket on my 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan Classic 800 .
Cam's 12th Birthday party at the Youth Centre. Me pushing Kyle while wearing my rollerblades. He loved the wind in his face.
Hailey and I with our medals from the Langley Track and Field meet middle of June. She won two bronzes, Long Jump at 4.89 Metres, and Triple Jump at 9.82 Metres. She was 4th in 100 Metre Dash with a time of 13.66 seconds and 6th in 200 Metre Dash. I got a gold medal for the age group of 45 to 49 year olds with a time of 15.41 seconds. She KICKED my old butt by 2 seconds ! ! ! Hope I don't have to chase her ever !
Shannon's foster daughter (A*****, not using her name due to privacy issues), two of her friends, one of the friend's mother and myself. We had a good day, lots of fun and not too much sun and no rain. This was the Grade 7 graduation "fun" day. Colton was there too, but I barely got to see him at all, as his mother went golfing with him. I'm glad he got to go and have fun.
My daughter Hailey's year end awards. Hmmm.... this girl never ceases to amaze me with her level of dedication and determination to succeed and be the best. Academic Award (honor roll), Top Hat Award (more than 6 A's), Athletic Award (Track and Field and Wrestling), Certificate of Excellence in Grade 9 Math and Gold Medal for Grade 9 Science. AND she's taking grade 10 Science in Summer School to get ahead for next year, so that in her grade 10 year she can take one of her Grade 11 sciences. This is her third year in a row to have straight A's at year end. Grade 6 - 6 A's, one B. Grade 7 - 7 A's. Grade 8 - 8 A's. Grade 9 - 8 A's. AMAZING. What a treasure and pleasure to have as a daughter.
Colton's grade 7 teacher at his last day of school. Thank you so much Ms. MacInnes for all your help throughout the year and patience as he worked his way through all the ongoing difficulties with his "parental situational crisis".....
Proud papa with his baby boy. . . . Last day of school and last day of Elementary school. Now on to High School. I just hope his marks continue to be as good as his last term. (OMG ! ! ! Do I really have that little of hair left on top? Must have been a bad hair day, it doesn't really look like that in the mirror.....)

Happy Birthday to me.....
Well, two concerts for this summer now. Toby Keith for Father's Day ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Brooks and Dunn, ZZ Top, and Rodney Atkins in August for my birthday ! ! ! !
Three bottles of wine, the new Toby Keith Double CD, and a Levi T-shirt.
I'm spoiled. And I would repeat everything that I said already, but you can just read the post below. She's everything to me.
I love you Shannon. Always and Forever. Big hugs to you sweetheart.
Hugs to all of you.

She's Everything to Me
That Brad Paisley song has really come to mean something to me. Shannon is everything I ever wanted in a woman. She's caring, loving, understanding. She doesn't show jealousy, pettiness, or get really upset at me. (Yes, we have our little spats, but they never last very long it's just that they aren't the yelling, screaming, throwing things, knock down, drag out fights they used to be with the ex).
It's sort of like that old Air Supply song. I wanna know what love is, I want you to show me....
It's like we were both waiting for each other. What's weird is that it sometimes feels like we were being led to each other and fate was just waiting until the right moment. When we compare out pasts, there's so many times that our paths have almost crossed. And then there are the times they did cross and we never even noticed. Like my son's grade 4 classroom, that one always makes me shake my head in wonder.
Father's Day this year, I got a new belt buckle and two new belts. AND she got me two tickets to go see Toby Keith in Auburn Washington. Which is as close as he is getting to Vancouver this year. So we're going to Renton for the weekend, visiting Seattle and seeing TOBY KEITH ! ! ! He's so awesome. My idol in country music. I sing a lot of his songs at karaoke, had the black cowboy hat like his. I was truly spoiled this year for father's day.
Of course, that brings up another concern. My 46th birthday is on June 25th. How in the world is she ever going to top TOBY KEITH tickets ??? Well, maybe she doesn't have to. Maybe I'm just truly blessed to have her as my life, my wife (no, not formally yet, just in spirit), my love, my one and only, my everything. She is my birthday gift from heaven.
PS: My motorcycle is my gift to myself. It's all come back so easily. I love riding my new Vulcan Classic 800.
Hugs and smiles to all.

It's mine !


Cowboy and mini-cowboy walk in the woods

There's a difference between living and living well.
I have my two kids who will always be my source of love and the inspiration to me, to always strive to do better. They are not children any longer, she is a very bright young lady and he's a serious young man.
She's studious and bright as a star. He's full of laughter and head lost in fantastical games and stories.
My life has not exactly gone the way I pictured it. But I keep grabbing myself by the collar and throwing myself back in the ring.
Life has turned around to become a thing of joy and beauty since meeting Shannon. Though it's not always rainbows and unicorns, she is a blessing of love and support. We walk beside each other as friends and lovers.
I used to say that nothing can keep me down because God can't make a mountain I can't climb. Now with Shannon by my side, we climb those mountains together.
It's gettin' better all the time.
