Re: There is a MBO Contest going on... What's Your Excuse?
I have a good reason why I won't make an entry. I've worked 6 days a week for the last 4 months. I'm just lucky if I can get laundry done. Three short fishing trips are all I've managed this summer.
. My wife also gave birth to our daughter in May. Sometimes getting outside isn't an option.

There are people who are pissed off every day I wake up alive...that also makes me happy. - Raptor.

I see where your priorities are, lol.koolaidND wrote:I have a good reason why I won't make an entry. I've worked 6 days a week for the last 4 months. I'm just lucky if I can get laundry done.

Hey, if you were able to get out fishing three times, you could have shot a few photos and made it an entry. 74 and more did.
Anyway, congrats on getting a new daughter.

My excuses:
Work
School
My knees have gone wonky and I'm walking with a cane for the time being. Bugging out without a motor vehicle is not currently an option.

Holding a grudge is like swallowing poison and expecting someone else to die.

hmm... new baby a few months ago? I missed an entire season after my daughter was born. She'll hopefully be good to go on a few outings with Dad this fall, before the winter weather rolls in.koolaidND wrote:I have a good reason why I won't make an entry.

CONGRATULATIONS!!
p.s.s be sure to take pics/video when you do get out there with her.

Well, the Contest Dates have past and there were several new enteries during the Extended Dates and I am thankful that so many stepped up to my taunting.
If you went out this past weekend, hurry up and get your entry in to be included in the Summer 2013 MBO Contest.
Good luck to everyone (but I want to win!)

My excuse: I work Tues-Friday evenings and nights, then I work Saturday all day. I then teach Sunday School at church Sunday morning, and have a regular D&D on Monday night.
When I was born, they told me the chance of getting out of this life alive was slim.

Still off work with my knee injury, and have developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome... Which is more painful than unmedicated labour apparently. Wish I could even walk up an incline....

Hang in there 72hours. Walking is still painful and difficult for me. EVERY step with my right ankle hurts.72hours wrote:Still off work with my knee injury, and have developed Complex Regional Pain Syndrome... Which is more painful than uneducated labour apparently.

I hope your knee gets better soon.
