Last Day Before Christmas Vacation


Hello to all my friends and family out there in cyberspace. It is getting closer to Christmas and Santa will be here soon. Not only is it our Lords birthday but it would be my wonderful wife's as well. She will be 29 years this coming Christmas day...yes I stole her right out of the cradle. I guess that makes me retiring rather young...but when you are fantasizing why not go all the way??

I hope that this Christmas season finds everyone where they want to be and spending time with the ones that they love. Christmas to me is having the family together and having fun and looking back over the last year and laughing about all the good times and forgetting about all the bad times. For the little ones it is Santa coming and leaving gifts under the tree. I remember as a small child not wanting to go to sleep Christmas eve because of the anticipation of Santa coming and hoping that he got my list of things that I wanted. Now that Sherri and I have all the G-Kids we look forward to seeing them come down the hallway wide eyed and trying to hold back the excitement in their hearts. Yes this is the season to be jolly.

I remember a Christmas that was not too jolly many years ago when I was overseas and far away from my family. That was a hard time for me and I guess those loved ones back in the World had a hard time missing me. I think about all our soldiers away from home and the hardships that they have to put up with and I pray to God that he watches over them and protects them from harm.

Well this morning I return to work and Sherri heads off to Longview to her luncheon. I hope the day passes quickly and that we both can return home safe and sound. If you are on the road this day and heading to a Christmas destination...Sherri and I both wish you a safe journey. I guess I best get ready for that NASCAR drive to work. This being the last day of work for many people I know that the roads will be busy and I will have to watch out for those drivers with a death wish.

Until the next meeting I wish you all a wonderful day....
