Quickly, quickly

No time to talk today, kids. I’m in for a full morning of meetings (yipee!), then off to the Yes We Can Event for Harvesters Kansas City to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and our National Day of Service. I planned well for my day of working in a canned food warehouse by painting my entire basement and bathroom this weekend, therefore rendering my arms almost completely lifeless in their absolute soreness. I wonder if the volunteer leader will be pissed that I can’t lift one can, let alone a box of them….

In all seriousness, I’m really proud of Trent and I for taking the time out of our insane schedules to do this service work today. We have trouble scheduling date night (one day I’ll tell you all about last night’s date night debacle), let alone time to serve others. But somehow we both managed to clear out a couple of hours from work, the kid and other obligations to do our part today. If we can do it, anyone can!

Happy MLK Day, CB readers. May your day be as fulfilling as mine!

Edited to Add: I was planning on saving this for tomorrow, but since NBC will probably force me to take it down, here is a clip of Fleet Foxes playing on SNL this past weekend. I know most of you ignore my strange musical tastes, but I dare you to watch this video and not get goosebumps. Lucy loves it, because she thinks the lead singer is her dad. Actually, though putting this video in this post is completely off topic, this music does tend to make me want to get out and save the world. But that could be just me.
