Rewind....


Sorry for the delay in getting
back to you....

It has quite a week! 
Rewind to last week --
I told you I was waiting for an
important phone call and then
when it came I had to be gone 
for a few days....

Well, I am back....

I don't know how to say
what I have to say....

It is SO hard....

I guess a picture is worth a
thousand words....

Why don't you sit down....

No, really, you better sit down....

Okay....

Take a deep breath....

Ready?

Here goes....


The call was from the
Green Bay Packers.

They have been keeping an eye
 on what I have done in
helping the Vikings and 
they said had the Vikings listened they
would have won the Super Bowl hands down!
Then with all I did to get the new stadium
to go through they said they needed to get
me on their side.

So I went to Wisconsin and it has
taken DAYS and long phones calls 
but I guess all I can say is 
they made me an offer I couldn't refuse....

I am going to go and find a house this week
and I will be in the process of moving to
Wisconsin in the next few weeks.  
Mike and Beth were surprised.  
I told Mike on my way home
I saw there were hospitals in 
Wisconsin so I stopped by and talked
to a very nice facility and they 
agreed to hire Mike.


All is good....


Except I feel really guilty....


I guess deep down I will always be 
the Vikings #1 fan....
the rest is just business,
right?


Later -- Remington --
just think I am giving up my horns to
put cheese on my head....
-- out!

I'm sure the whole family will enjoy this new adventure.

My Mind's Eye said...

OH MY DOGS Remington...here I thought purple was your color and lo and behold your look even more handsome (if that is possible) in green! It is a very manly color.

So good buddy will you be head coach?
Remember me when it comes to selecting your cheerleaders. I can jump very high.

All kidding aside congratulations to Mike on being selected to be head coach at the local hospital there. They are very lucky to have him. Boy you all have a lot to do to get ready to move. You will have to keep the kitties from being sealed up in the packing boxes.

Holler if you need any moral support.
Your BFFF and biggest fan,
madi and mom

I guess cheese isn't a bad thing. I'd rather have it on my lips than on my head however. You do look good in green. But I and happy your still are the Vikings #1 fan.

Kathy said...

Oh my goodness,Rem, that is big news!
The family is taking up roots so you can work for the Green Bay Packers!
They are definitely smarter than the Vikings, they see lots of talent in you!

Good luck finding a house for all of you! But oh my, the dread of moving again!

Oh my gosh you will be a cheesehead, Rem!!! Now that is something I would love to see. Cheese is always so much better than horns any day!!! Wait till I tell Phil the news! Isn't Mike a hospital administrator? How far away is it...have you found a house yet, when will you be moving? Your new neighbors will be so lucky! What an exciting thing!!! Keep us informed!!

Remington ... YOU... a Cheesehead????
Shocking!

Ziggy Stardust said...

Remington, I am so excited I can hardly stand still. There I go again, I am spinning...ok I will take a deep breath and try to relax. First, I missed you my sweet, but I completely understand that you were busy. Second, Mommy and Daddy both grew up in Wisconsin and lived there most of their lives. They are the biggest Packers fans ever! Daddy is really happy that the team will be getting help from you now. Being a cheesehead does have its benefits, mostly...well...CHEESE. Mommy brings home the best cheese in the world on her visits. Next and most important, now you will be even closer so perhaps we can see each other more. Mommy and Daddy visit Wisconsin several times a year so now it will be easier for me to come to you. I am so happy right now and I will have the sweetest dreams tonight. When you are able, can you please tell us what city you will be living in.

Thanks and Loveys and Hugs Freckle Belly AKA Sasha
