Fat Tuesday
Wow! 2900 blog entries and nearly 18,000 tweets. I need to get out more...
Good morning! We're glad to see some sunshine today. Claire took Abby and the twins to school. Michelle dropped Timothy off. I went downtown to get a haircut and beard trim. I'm working from home today.
Got sent this from a friend upstairs at AMD: “How do you know you're shopping in Texas?” (YouTube video link)
Michelle is on her way to oncology in Nashua. She'll have a routine blood draw this morning and a visit with her local oncologist on Thursday.
Millions Improperly Claimed U.S. Phone Subsidies: “41% of their >6 million subscribers couldn't demonstrate their eligibility or didn't respond to requests for certification” (Wall Street Journal link) Cue one of the many YouTube ‘Obama Phone Parodies’
Shortly after Michelle went for her labs, I met with my spiritual director for lunch at Five Guys. Hey, if tomorrow's Ash Wednesday, having lunch at Five Guys is one way to live the spirit of "Fat Tuesday".
Michelle, Claire, and the boys head out to CCD at St. Patricks.
Time to wrap it up for now and get a little exercise at the Y.
While I was away, the rest returned from CCD. Abby head out to the high school for color guard/flag spinning practice. Claire went to Gymnastics Village. Michelle went to the local cancer support group meeting. I've just returned from the Tuesday evening Step class at the Merrimack YMCA. Time to eat a little dinner and get my RCIA notes together...
Michelle just called along her way back from her meeting. She's going to pick up Abby along the way. 'Tis time for me to say prayers with the boys and send 'em to bed. I've printed out my outline for tomorrow's class. I think I'm going to crash pretty quickly tonight. Good night all!

in the divine image he created him;
male and female he created them.
God blessed them, saying:
‘Be fertile and multiply;
fill the earth and subdue it.’ ” — Genesis 1
