Terrasidius Petronius REX IMPERATOR

I'm sure most people will not be posting anything today.  Christmas day, time with family, not on the internet....I guess it's not the case for me.  Don't get me wrong, I have my husband and kid next to me.  Jake was up most of the night all excited about presents and is finally fast asleep in my bed.  Brian is laying next to him nursing a hurt back.  Mom is in the living room watching her "programs" on tv and treating this pretty much like a typical day.  In many respects it is, as we didn't have any plans and it feels like a typical Saturday around here.  With that being said, this is a Christmas I won't forget anytime soon.

First reason I won't forget is that this is undoubtedly the most broke we've been at Christmas.  Three gifts under a borrowed 3 foot plastic tree, all for Jake.  2009…

We should find God in what we do know,
not in what we don't;
not in outstanding problems,
but in those we have already solved.
