Sure, the picture is from tonight.  It was taken in the men’s restroom at Meijer and is yet another bacon reference, as if the world needs another.  This one is what someone wrote on the hand dryer over the drawing for people who cannot read.  The drawing indeed does look like you put your hand under it and it dispenses bacon.  But two things made me believe that it was not going to be true.  One, it was the bathroom at the Meijer, and then two, if it really were true I would imagine I might run into Father PT there.  It turned out to be a hand dryer……the crappy kind too.  I used it for just a minute and then wiped my hands on my pants as I left the bathroom.

But why am I posting about the hand dryer in the Meijer bathroom?  Well because tonight it was Amanda and I’s intention to have “date night,” and like an automatic bacon dispenser we found out there was no such thing.  In fact, we were at the Meijer to get some supplies for St. Patrick’s, one of our churches that we were heading over to CLEAN.  (Yep, how romantic is that?)  So date night…..no such thing as well, at least for tonight.  Ben is at a sleepover and you would think we could do better than that.  And the real tragic part is that the vacuum at the church was well past Last Rites too.  So we didn’t even get to finish!

But the truth is, I appreciated the help.  I have been the primary cleaning crew for St. Patrick’s since it came into its own building, and to be honest, she is a bit more talented at such things than I am.  And since it was date night, who am I to deny the girl a good time?

So now we are at home and exhausted.  Daylight Savings Time “falls back” tonight and now I will need to be at Church an hour early to tell people the time changed and to come back in an hour.  AND, I also will need six additional weeks to get used to the time change……I hate it.  But at least we are finished for the day.

I am just thankful for the day…..even if that dang thing only dries hands.

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
