Party Time!
Tis the season to be jolly! Yes, it is that time of the year for Christmas parties. One of the perks of being the Pastor is I get invited to a lot of parties. During the month of December, Jeanne and I will attend 13 different church Christmas parties. The parties sometimes include gift exchanges, games, fellowship and always plenty of food.
With the increase of parties comes a busier schedule, which means less free time to work out, and more food consumption, all of which adds up to weight gain. Now I can easily get the job of Santa with my “stomach like a bowl full of jelly”. While Santa opportunities abound, the weight gain may present some difficulties. I have already given all my large clothes to others or goodwill, and my current wardrobe is getting tight. The second problem is Jeanne prefers the “skinny” Larry, not having gotten to know the “fat” Larry. You can definitely see my dilemma.
The liberal soul shall be made fat… –Proverbs 11:25
Well for now I will just party on and hit it hard the first of the year. Until then you have more of me to love. HO! HO! HO!

as I eat my 5.3 oz, 0% fat, all natural greek yogurt, sprinkled with a tablespoon of granola for breakfast I can relate to your blog Pastor….thanks for the laugh! It’s a never ending battle and during the “jolly season” it’s tougher! BTW, my son didn’t recognize the “skinny” Larry @ Thanksgiving!
Yes indeed, Tis the season to be jolly!! With visions of sugar plums dancing in our heads. To bad they can’t stay there and not fall to our waist lines. Party hard Pastor, you have 22 days till visions of sugar plums turn to sweat and exercise. Don’t frown though, you will have a following behind you doing the same thing. I so enjoy your blogs, their has to be a comedian hiding somewhere in you.
In the same dilemma, Diane
