specialTopic: A Holiday
Marty and Peggy are here from California for Christmas, and I've decided to take the day off. With all the work piling up at my day job, this will make it challenging to return and get everything done by Friday. However... what is more important? I only see my son once or twice a year. I get to see my work piles on a desk every single day.
It is time to work on the next issue of The Star Beacon. Yet, I feel the priority is to spend time with my family today. Perhaps we'll bake some cookies and fudge. It's been snowing here in the mountains, and the roads are not the greatest. It's a good day to stay home... just enjoy the season.
What won't get done will wait. It will always be there. That is the nature of "work," after all. There is always work to be done, and it never gets finished. If it did, what would we be left to do?
Son Scott will arrive on Christmas Eve Day, and oldest son Ryan and Trish are probably coming in the day after Christmas. How special that we can all be together for even one day this year.
Blessings to all of you with families. Take time to be with them. Work can wait.
