Literary Tid-Bits: Lazy Day

Lazy Day

Oh yes, lazy day indeed.

It's the second day into the four day weekend and I'm having a ball doing nothing.

Not really nothing. You see, as a single father of four, I really don't get time to myself. I work all day and come home and hit the ground running. I cook diner and make certain that the kids do theid homework. I check it and monitor their free time until their bed time. Then I relax for a couple of hours doing nothing. I love gamming, but don't really have the free time to do so.
Saturdays begin with a prayer meeting at church followed by a couple of hours pounding the pavement as we go door to door inviting people to a Christian church service. Please, don't confuse us with Jehova's Witnesses. I have a few hours after that to relax and feed the kids before we go to evening service. Today, however, was diferent.
Today, there was a fellowship meeting in Azusa, CA that I could not attend due to finances. I stayed home. During fellowship meetings the regular Saturday sceduel is cancelled. I had the whole day to myself. I played pc games, lounged around, took a nap, took a shower, made the kids lunch, played more pc games, watched One Piece on Toonami's Jetstream, and played more pc games. I plan to play CounterSrike: Source later on today, though I suck so hard at it. Tonight, I'll probably read an Anne Rice novel over coffee. What a day. I don't even mind not being able to talk to my female hopeful for almost three days. Maybe I'll take the kids to the pool for a little night swimming.

My opinion: lazy days are a God-send for the single parent.

Oh yeah:
September 4th: Happy Birthday Felicia; Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad
September 5th: Happy Birthday CL (though I haven't heard from ya, you're still my brother)

'Til next time.
