4 Weeks...
Four weeks until Ash Wednesday.
The tree is down, most of the tinsel accounted for and I'm coming up for a breath of air before submerging myself in more stuff.
Guitar Hero is the monster Christmas gift at our house... Unfortunately, sitting at the iMac in the family room - until I get my lap top back - is not conducive to writing much of anything. And at work? Those little blog breaks I was taking evaporated during Advent and may not return until... sometime during the days of Easter? I hope.

The gap between Christmas and Lent - catch-up time for those of us who make some sort of living in so-called "organized" * religion - is just is not there. My hope is to clear up all post-Christmas paperwork in the next week. Hope.

*My office belies the concept of organized anything. First Church of Color-Coded Alphabetized Entropy. We could all use a stand-down day. Just to get our bearings. Too bad Lent begins before March. We could use February 29, Just turn off the phones, don't answer the door....
