I was back in the driver's seat today. School is back and I was up and on the bus early today. I am back on the same route that I have been driving for over 2 months. I had told the kids that the other driver would be back after Christmas so some were happy to see me again and a few were disappointed. It will end this week at some point and I will be cast back into the sub driver pool and unknown routes. It has been especially good to be on this route for the weeks before Christmas because I was the recipient of some great gifts from these kids. Besides the homemade goodies from many and the candy and nuts from others, I received gift cards for Cracker Barrel, Chili's, and McDonald's. It made me feel bad for all the times when the kids were bus riders that I couldn't understand why we had to get the bus driver something for Christmas. Thankfully I have a wife that is much more thoughtful than me.
I guess you also realize that I took a vacation from blogging and did only those things that I deemed necessary during the holidays. I will not be able to catch you up on everything that happened over this time but suffice it to say that we had a great Christmas and a good start to the new year. We did make it up to see Pattie's mom and my parents and that is always a good time and a refreshing break. I hope all of your holiday times were as good or better than mine.
