The Montana Q's

My Uncle Benny and his two kids Danny and Missy came out for a week this past week. I didn't get to see him as much as I would have liked to, but I find it goes that way when you don't live at home anymore. It was so much easier seeing them all the time then it is now which is a little sad, but I do enjoy the time we did have with each other.

The family went to Glen Eyrie castle to have tea and after we took a walk to their memory rose garden it was very hot but also very enjoyable.

Danny is 13 so he is going through that awkward stage but he is such an amazing young man. While on the way to the rose garden he tried to catch a lizzard. He says they bring him good luck he saw one every day of his trip here. I think for Christmas I will send him a glass lizzard if I can find one. A real one would not survive through the shipping process and I am not sure if Uncle Benny would like that.



Little Missy is 10 years old and just as beautiful as ever! She is trying to talk Uncle Benny into buying her a monkey lol. He is refusing of course, but she knows that when he was little they always had weird animals so she is keeping the hope there. I told her to go with a Sugar Glider first then make her way up and once she is older and can take care of it on her own then she should get a monkey and train it to work in the lobby of her veterinarian office as the secretary handing the clients the paper work to fill out and taking it back and showing them their room she was thrilled at the idea of it.




I can't wait til next year to see them again!

Rude people irk me!

I am just needing to vent about my day.

Today started it out good or somewhat good. Around 4:30 everything changed. I was helping this coupld with a painting of the value of $300.00 so I did everything from the book, in order to insure it we have to double box the painting. A inner box the tightly fits the painting so no movement happens then a bigger box with 3in of peanuts on all sides so if it something happens the outer box and peanuts take the most damage and if the painting gets damaged then the claim will be paid. Well I came up with a quote of $104.30, and the wife starts saying how disgusting the price was and that it was making her sick the whole time I was talking to the husband about the information I needed him to provide for the label finally she started saying that we were fraudulent in our business. Well my dad was on the floor building a box and he looks up at her and says "I am the owner of this store if you think we fraudulent then you can leave" then he looked at me and said to void the label. So she goes fine we will leave and I will tell everyone you are crooks. All the while the husband is standing there looking so embarrassed that he kept apologizing to me and my dad. So she rushes out of the store with the painting and the door hits her in the ass (we had to change the position of the door stopper so now the door doesn't open as wide). The husband is still standing there apologizing for her and how he uses us all the time. And finally she comes back in and says lets go now we are never coming back here. I was just like if I were him I would have never married her.

For her to call my store fraudulent was out of line and was not called for. She needs karma to kick her in the ass so hard she wont know what hit her. I think I am a little better now.

Some big changes

I haven't been on in over a month! I think my last post was June. Not alot has been going on.

Ski is still pushing on for the Army or ROTC. Hopefully something will come along sometime soon.

I am still fighting with PPCC about my tution hopefully it will get fixed soon. Hopefully I will be able to enroll with UCCS in the spring semester I am just not sure how there classes go since its a university instead of a community college.

I got kicked off of the design site I was on because their "girls" said I was lying or something like that. Oh well their loss right? I am now a co-owner of Mtn. Post Sweethearts its a military support site/group. We send letters and care packages to a spefic unit for a year after that year we will get another. If you are interested in helping out which would be amazing you can e-mail me at cmlinski@hotmail.com and I will answer any question that you have about the group.

My uncle Benny is in town from Montana until next Thursday so I will have pictures of their trip up after the week is over. I think that's it for now!
