GEE WIZZZZZZZ

Why is it that between Thanksgiving and Christmas things just go CRAZY?

Have you seen the metamorphis in people trying to get everything done on their monthly planner in ONE DAY ?
Have we totally lost our vision on this time of the year?

I remember back to mid-October when I saw Christmas decorations in stores, what's that all about?

Hey, life just goes too fast anyway, so why put it in afterburner to make it get here quicker?

I do admit, I (like you) have lots going on, BUT after this next weekend, it's time to start slowing the train down. You know that Christmas train that has 6 engines and hundreds of box cars loaded with goodies for kiddies. So I thought IF I can start to slow down on Dec 10th, I just may make it to Christmas eve and actually celebrate Christmas as a normal person (if that is physically possible).

So for all you GET-R-DONE folks out there, go ahead and "knock yourself out". This is one Christmas I intend to spend thanking Christ for all me has so truly blessed me with. A wonderful family, a caring church, a job, hot showers, my dog "aggie", hot chocolate, warm fires, hayrides and last but not least an incredible bunch of AWESOME STUDENTS that drive me to do the sometimes crazy things I do in this thing called the Hope Student Ministry.
So before the Christmas train passes you by, I'll just say from me to you
MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Till next time,
TC
