On Monday I am going start hanging out with someone new. Really new. About 4 months new, actually.
A friend from church is between childcare providers and I told her that I would help out while she arranges for new care for her little guy. I offered a few weeks ago but Grandparents was able to cover the first part of the gap. Grandma is taking off this weekend, so I am back on duty on Monday morning.
Today I have been hitting up the neighbors to find a jogging stroller to borrow. The Dude sleeps a lot, like a good 4 month old should. (Yes, I am looking at you, Princess.) And I figure he can nap while I walk some of the hours away. Shouldn't be a big thing, right? Of course, it's been a long time since I did all of the usual stuff like grocery shopping and house cleaning.
Wait! Scratch that. I meant to say that it's been a long time since I did all of the usual stuff like grocery shopping and house cleaning with a baby to entertain, too. Hopefully this is like riding a bike.
In fact now that I think about it, like riding a bike, maybe I should just wear a helmet all the time. 'Cause obviously my brain is already on the fritz. Probably don't need any other big hits to my melon if this is the type of thing I willingly volunteer for.

I always enjoy reading about your latest exploits. And now with the Dude on board, I look forward to laughing quite a bit-- at your expense, of course. Best of luck in your new endeavor.
I'm putting your name in the hat for official "Sainthood" - cuz man, you have the patience of one - that's for sure!!
It's a good thing you are doing Mike... "Extra Credit" in Heaven!
