I am pretty sure that it\'s Wednesday. I know it\'s nearlyt he new year as well, but to ask for specifics would be asking a bit much at this point.

Either way, I know I am in my last days of vacation/paternity leave and to tell the truth, I am really gonna miss it. (I know *BIG* surprise). Anyhow, we\'ve got one of our nieces stayin\' with us this week because her lucky parent are going to Tampa for the Outback Bowl. She brought her brand new guitar with her, so I am going to show her the few chords that I know. It should be an interesting week. I think Carrie\'s mother may be coming for a visit as well.

Soon I\'ll be back into the swing of things at work, but my life will never be the same after spending a month of family time at home. How do you Dad\'s do it?? Maybe I can convince Carrie that I need to be a stay at home papa...
