Day Off

Well, here is my boy. He sure is growing up. I will be glad though when he grows up to move out of our bed. He literally comes between Michelle and I. I know, I need to enjoy it while I can. I do enjoy it at times. He surely lets you love on him. He has that smell about him as well. You know, each person has a scent about them. I can still go into my parents house, who now live where my grandparents lived before they passed away, and can still smell my Grandmother. My Mother has a specific scent. My wife has a special scent. We all do.

OK, enough of that. I know that it has been a while since I have posted on my blog. My wife had started me on face book. She set herself up and urged me to do the same so that I could meet up with friends that maybe haven't seen in a while. Well, it is OK but not the same as blogging. On facebook, you just post quick little quirks or post pictures. That's good but not enough reading for me. Facebook can take up too much of your time.

I am off work today and thought that I would just relax a little for a change. I do plan on going up to the school today and picking Bradley up early to stay home with me. Michelle is having to sub today at the school. So this gives me some time today to just goof off. I really need to clean up the kitchen and put laundry away and all that stuff but I just want to laze around today. I go on vacation next week for Thanksgiving. I am excited. Michelle and I plan on doing lots of stuff during that week. Since my brother is coming home for the Holidays this year (Christmas) from Canada, we plan on helping Mom and Dad decorate for Christmas and I guess we will do the same at our house.

One last thing, My wife recently went back to her hometown where she went to school for the weekend. She visited with her folks and the kids went with her and had a good time with their cousins. I, of course had to stay home because of Church and work. Oh, did I mention that I resigned as pastor and this past Sunday was my last as Pastor. I start back to school in January so it would have been tough to Pastor a Church and work full time too. Anyway, I have decided that I am a little jealous of my wife. She gets to go back to her home town and visit with her girlfriends from school each year. They get together a few times each year but end up getting together every year during Christmas (or Thanksgiving) to visit. I don't get to do that. I don't have school friends where we get together from time to time. I wish. You know, being a guy, I think of football games where buddies get together and have a good time. Yea, right. I work, I come home and go to Church and that's it. I don't have any other activities. Don't get me wrong. Michelle doesn't have a lot of time either. She is always working. Working by taking care of the kids and cleaning house and laundry and did I say taking care of the kids? But what about me? Not really, I don't have a need for that but how nice it would be from time to time to go to a Coffee shop just to sit and visit with friends. That is just an awesome thing that My wife and her friends have.

I have to go for now. I will change out of my PJ's and go pick up Bradley and come back home to play. Maybe I won't get anything accomplished today.
