Surviving Christmas and other crap

In my previous post I went on a little pity party rant about how busy my December was going to be. Well, it certainly has lived up my expectations, and even surpassed those expectations in some areas.

The choir schedule has been nuts. But I’ve been able to shuck my bowling responsibilities temporarily to make it a bit easier. My FaithWorks schedule has been busy, but not actively leading discussion this month has saved a lot of stress. Plus, Head 2 Heart is pretty much done for December. We have a Christmas Party on Sunday, but there is no prep work required for that. Once I get through the Christmas Concerts this Sunday the hard part of the season will be over with.

The past three weeks or so have been quite and education and test to my generally patient demeanor. I’ve had two pairs of pants ripped and cleaned up more feces than I guess I imagined I would be. Hank has certainly been an education. Once I can get him past the potty training thing and the biting thing I will be so very happy.

I’d like to compliment Derek on his new blog. Who knows, maybe this will spark a new career for him as a sports columnist…watch out Mitch Albom!

Thanks, and hang in there, bud. Sorry to hear about the pants, but to anyone who doesn't believe you have a generally patient demeanor, I'll vouch for you.

By the way, I can't believe you didn't give me crap about putting the ads up.
