Random Ramblings #44: Post-Thanksgiving “How ya’ doin’?”

Every Friday we’ll take a break from topical posts and will post some random personal thoughts. 

A Cuppa Joe – Random Ramblings from a Fellow Struggler

I’ll ask this very quietly – how ya doin’? I’m whispering because I have the decency to assume you’re as wiped out as I am, and a loud voice is the last thing you need.

That’s not to suggest you drank too much yesterday. I certainly didn’t. But I everything’d too much, then washed it down with — everything. And upon viewing the aftermath in the dining room, living room, kitchen (God have mercy!) and den, everything nearly came back. Which is to say it was a terrific Thanksgiving in our house, and I sure hope it was in yours, too.

I also look forward to a weekend of recovery and renewal for all of us. We’ve fully entered the season, as if you didn’t know, with Christmas music now omnipresent (fine by me; I’m a sucker for it all), lights up on the houses of the truly diligent, and stressing over who gets what and how we’ll pay for it. It’s a lovely test, really, of our ability to exercise the sound minds He gave us and keep a proper focus. God grant we pass with A’s. Have a wonderful weekend.

I'm a delivery driver for ups. This will be my 26th Christmas Season, so the big weekend is a welcomed time for rest and reflection, as well as another chance to stop and realize how blessed we are. Truely thankful for so much.

Thanks Mr Dallas.
