I'm trying to decide if the weather warrants cancelling our Christmas Eve Candles, Carols and Christ service. It's supposed to stay above freezing long enough for people to get home, but even rain on top of all this snow and ice can be treacherous.
I take this call very seriously. I'm raring to go (or is it rearing to go - someone has to tell me the derivation of that phrase), but I don't want anyone getting hurt trying to get there, or while they're driving home. I hope things are clear cut enough that I can make the call by noon.
I'm planning to take communion to some of our seniors this afternoon. I really enjoy doing that. Here's hoping the weather cooperates!

Tonight was great. Thanks. Merry Christmas and I know we have a great year ahead of us at Aloha Church of God.
Hi Tim,
This is what I found out on the question of raring or rearing to go:
raring gets the nod--
From: The Oxford Pocket Dictionary of Current English | Date: 2008 | © The Oxford Pocket Dictionary of Current English 2008, originally published by Oxford University Press 2008.
rar·ing / ˈre(ə)ring/
• adj. inf. very enthusiastic and eager to do something: she was raring to get back to her work I'll be ready and raring to go.
Love,
Janelle
