1000 wins

Tomorrow night coach Anderson may get his 1000th win? He has been coaching for a longtime. Think about what it takes to get 1000 wins in a Basketball coaching career. NCS has 3 of the states best three point shooters. 3 out of the top 11.

NCS 29 and 1

The Nashville Christian Eagles are playing tomorrow night and Charlie Anderson is closing in on 1000 wins. Tomorrow night will be 999, if he wins.

In Louisville Again!

I am building a lot of Marriott reward points traveling up here to Louisville and other areas of KY. Hopefully we can use these points sometimes this year. Maybe for a trip to Florida.

Diary diet

Alex Curtis Health Check

I started another blog site last week to help me keep track of what I am eating, work outs, and weight loss. I am having my 40th birthday next month and I have finally realized how out of shape I am. It is important that I start eating better as well as exercise more than I am today.

I have been looking at different supplements that will increase energy and burn fat. My goal is to weigh 195 by April 5th the day before my birthday. My last weigh in I was 218.6. Big obstacles is cutting out the cokes, breads (carbs) and not eating till I am so full. Changing my eating habits has been hard as we eat out a lot. It is to expensive as well as unhealthy.

Ashton did really well at her volleyball tournament this weekend. Addison is still hurt and did not play. Ashton looked really good and has improved a lot. The twins really like their coach, Paul. He is good for the girls.

Re-Fi Whiteheath CT

We refinanced our the mortgage we have on 905 Whiteheath Ct and did get a much better interest rate and terms this time. We thought we would get more money back but as usual the amount we thought we would get was much lower. It is amazing to me how every time we expect to get one amount we get something else. Oh well. 

Sitting at Ashton and Addison volley ball practice at the Impact Volley ball club out in Antioch almost 30 minutes away from Bellevue. Addison hurt her Knee so she can not practice bit Ashton is. Ashton got to play with the girls High School Basketball team Friday night and scored a basketball! Ashton did not get the chance to play at all this year on the Middle Schools team and her coach this year was really bad. She really pissed me off how she managed or did not manage the team this year. They could have been so much better if they had a better coach. 

Coach P had almost totally destroyed Ashton self confidence and really did not know what she was doing. She really pissed me off, did I say that already!!!!

Is it worth it?

Having a big nice house,  private schools, and all of the other things that we feel we must have is so crazy. Money, money, money!?!?!?!!! 

Looking to the Future

Jennifer says that I can be negative. I don't view myself as a negative person I usually try to keep it real however. Many times facts are facts and if they seem to be negative then It is what is. I am very positive about our future and I truly believe that God has blessed my family with everything we need. However,  we do not save and invest in our future like I think should.

With private school tuition, travel volleyball, softball, baseball, basketball, vacations, Titans tickets, and every other expense we have over and above our normal living expenses.  It seems impossible to save enough money. We don't live high on the hog. We may need to sell the house we are in now. It is the perfect family house and we have been here for almost four years now. Jennifer and the kids love this place. I really like the house as well we have plenty of room and it is close to everything we need, but we could make over 100k and build something as big and potnetially have a smaller payment. 

It is amazing how much it costs raising a family with four kids. We budget 1200 month just for food. Ashton and Addison who are 14 years old now eat as much as I do and they are girls. Our younger ones Allie-Grace and Maddux are getting bigger as well and eat a lot these days as well. Private school is the one thing that has really changed our situation. The twins love going to Nashville Christian and compared to other private schools it is very reasonable in costs.

"time sure is fun when your having flies"

Wow like Kirmit the frog used to say "time sure is fun when your having flies". The years just roll by faster and faster every year. The kids are growing up so fast and with twins being 14 going on 20 they have taking over the house and I now live with three women who are very demanding. But I still love em they are my beautiful ladies.
