Merry Christmas!

To You Is Born This Day in the City of David a Saviour

I was very wary of doing a ‘Christmas Blog Post’, mainly because I’ve been to Mass, I’ve watched some rubbish Christmas TV, I’ve had a beer or two, we’ve carefully arranged all the presents under the tree and all is ready for an already very excited Caitie to wake up in the morning to that particular kind of excitement that only children can experience on Christmas Day morning and I feel that what I write will probably only end up being trite or sentimental or just plain boring. 

All I will say therefore and notwithstanding what I’ve just written is that, as you’ve probably guessed, I didn’t manage to get a Just A Catholic Dad episode recorded and prepped and published in time for Christmas, so I’m sorry and will try to do better over the following week or two!  I did record something, but realised that by spending the time attached to my PC editing it and preparing it, I wasn’t actually going to be spending the time leading up to Christmas with the two people about whom the podcast is actually about.  So, somewhat reluctantly I admit, I decided to give it a miss, but I will get back in the saddle as soon as I can! I miss podcasting when I don’t do it – I think that it’s cathartic!

May I wish all of you – especially the wonderful people who download Just A Catholic Dad, those who have befriended me on Twitter and Facebook, and especially to those great people who have taken the time and effort to write to or contact me – a very Happy and Holy Christmas.  God Bless, Sean.

About Just A Catholic Dad
I'm a father in my mid forties with a little three year old daughter. I'm a returned Catholic, my daughter is a baptised Catholic, and I'm married to a wonderful woman who is not a Catholic, nor did she have a religious upbringing. This presents some challenges, and this blog is my way of chronicling my way through them....

    I’m glad that you realized that if you recorded the podcast, you were not going to be spending the time leading up to Christmas with the two people about whom the podcast is actually about. You’re first priority should always be God and you, Nikki second, Caitie third, then anything else. We are down at the bottom of the list. It’s because you keep to the right priorities that we enjoy listening to JACD! I hope your Christmas was just as magical as you anticipated and look forward to hearing about it…

    • Thanks Tom. There was always the danger of a Nicki hard-stare if I had elected to spend too much of the Christmas holiday on the mixer and PC! It’s been a long, cold but most enjoyable Christmas here, and at last we have heating – more about that on the next JACD; speaking of which, the next recording is hopefully on Thursday 6th (I hope). Merry Christmas to you and all your family!

      PS I’ve dropped you a reply to your Facebook message – sorry for the delay….
