Some things never change...

You ever notice how somethings never change? Well I'm not one of them. Maybe Valerie is, but I'm not. If you don't believe me, take a look at the last 29 years. (don't you love before and after pictures)?

It would seem as though time has stood still. Your thinking Gees Durk hasn't changed a bit, but Oh...look closer. 29 years ago...stunningly handsome. Now? Well...still stunningly handsome. 29 years ago, has a hot chick on his side. Now? Hum...still has a hot chick on his side. 29 years ago, has all his hair. Now? I still have all my hair! (Ok, its in a baggy in my sock drawer....but hey, I still have it)! It's what you can't see in the picture that has changed. You can't see the 40 extra pounds, the aching joints, the non-stretch elastic ligaments, and the cholesterol blocked arteries. I especially love my gobble and the extra hair that grows out of my nose and ears. That's kinda like graffiti on Mount Rushmore.....you know....you want to see the marvel, but all you see is " vote for Pedro". I may as well tattoo, "52 years old" across my forehead, but next year that would be old too.
Yep...somethings never change. Thank goodness for blogs, cause this one will change soon. Well....that's what I think anyway.

Uh.. she visited me too!

Ok so who's cuter? (I'm the one on the left). I was thinking about it and I came to this conclusion.
I saw Laura, little Anabel, Darryn, and all of the new babies, plus, had a chance to look around at all the grandchildren at Mark and Beatrix's wedding. I figure Dani and Greg are destined to have another ultimate cutie in 9 months because....well....there isn't anything but cute to be had. Lets face it, cute is in the genes. What an attractive family we were all blessed with. I figure if you trace our evolutionary chart back to our primeval swamp scum, then we must have been the cutest scum on earth. Now that we are no longer the scum of the earth, we must keep the posterity procreating cuties.
Well that's what I think anyway. Durk

Baby Anabel comes to visit!

Baby Anabel is a quiet little thing! She sleeps a lot! Tonight Bethany and Mike came over for Sunday dinner and Anabel woke up! Had to get the camera and take a picture of open eyes! She sure is tiny!

New haircut

When Becky was here I got my haircut! No more long hair and no more 30 minute hair drying sessions in the mornings! Becky put in some "peek-a-boo" highlights too. It is a little hard to see from the picture but there are some blonde streaks there when my hair moves! Thank you, Becky!

inspiration or indigestion


Ok so here's what I think.... have we become so accustomed to computers that we can no longer push the one digit speed dial # on our cell phones to talk to each other? I mean, I know a stamp is what?.....41 cents? ....so mail is way out of the question. Now its blogs? What the heck is a blog? Is that a log with blood on it? Is it what a person becomes sitting to long on the couch? I don't know? Is it a short cut word....like....I blog to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints? What church do you blog to?


What's the true meaning of "blog"? Heck if I know......but I think I just did one?
Oh....gotta go.....Valerie's looking at me.
