Please Pray for Me

First off, Hey there and more importantly, Hope that you all have a safe and happy Christmas!

OK, onto the matter at hand. The next 24 to 48 hours will be the most physically and mentally draining of my life. To set this up; our cat, Penelope, has been at the vet's for about 3 days now and we are desperately wanting to have her home with us. Hopefully it will be today, but to do that will require rearranging an already chaotic schedule. I have to take my wife to her family early this afternoon to spend time with them. This will be difficult since it's the first Christmas without her brother. But you guys are probably aware of that.

Then, to complicate matters, I have to go to work this evening and stay until who knows when. This is really turning myself and the crew I work with into a bunch of Scrooges. We are all leaving families of one sort or another to get there and the weather is supposed to be brutal. Not as bad as last weekend here, but enough to screw things up. Whenever we are done, I then have to drive back to her family's house to pick her up. She didn't want to be alone on Christmas, and I can't say that I blame her for that.

So, at some point I have to find the time to get our baby(cat), spend some time with her, the wife's family, work, and get some rest. Christmas day should be a snap considering we are spending that with my family. I just don't know if I can make this. I'm already starting to drift writing this. Need to get at least a few hours so I can take a run at things.

So, please keep me in your thoughts. I love you guys and want to be here to have fun with everyone in the new year. I hope that all you wish and hope for comes true in the holiday season and throughout the new year!
