WE DO THE MASHED POTATO AND THE FUNKY CHICKEN

14 Days

Posted over 2 years ago
As I sit here typing away I know my wife’s parents are on the road heading to my neck of the woods. My wife is from Kapuskasing, Ontario and it’s about a 16 hour drive due north to her home town. You might ask, "Why not fly?" and the answer to that is there are no airports close to her home town. She does not get to see her parents as much as she would like, so when they come to visit they usually stay for 2 weeks. While many people might find this a pain to deal with, I don't mind it too much. Granted our house is small, and finding alone time can be difficult, it’s made easier because they are two of the nicest people to be around on a daily basis. I have always enjoyed my drives to her hometown, nothing beats driving in Northern Canada with a car full of tunes. The scenery is breath taking, and lack of police makes the speed limit disappear. I know I have a few more things to clean before they get here, my wife likes the house to look tip top when they arrive. I also have another soccer game tonight which means I will be late to the hip hop party that should start around 7 or so. Just like last week, I am forced to post my contribution to hip hop Thursdays early, with a song that I would be more than happy to drive to.

  4. Me and the Horse I Rode In On says DAMN!!!!!! I thought I kicked off hip hop thursday. Well......in my mind I did. You're a good man, Kevin. You don't mind having the in-laws staying with you for 2 weeks. That is one fine gesture. But.........is there a connection bestween them visiting and you getting in shape for the marathon? A great way to get out of the house every day.

  6. Me and the Horse I Rode In On says And don't you dare have your "dad" help you with the comments. I know "it's a family affair".....but there are limits. What do you think they're listening to on their way down? Have him write about the road trip. Do you think they'll stop and throw up somewhere in Wisconsin because they've eaten too many caffeine tablets?

  10. Rawkkiddoh says Henry you get all the credit for being first, just had to throw my 2 cents into the mix. As for their music, a lot of it is Fenchie/canadian stuff. Not my cup of greek coffee. Anna, I will make time for you just got to get used to the time difference. Michelle dont egg him on, you forget he used his child as a human shield in MOG wars Lyla, you would have to meet them to understand. While I do love having my private space, I understand what their trip means to both them and my wife. August, glad you liked!
