Dear IMO,

We have three children, and every year I dread this time of year. It's not that I'm the Grinch, but our kids have way too much stuff. There is so much stuff in their closets, the basement, and the attic I think we could open up our own toy store. I'd like to lighten the load this year and have them/us do something different this year. Do you have any suggestions that can get us in the Christmas spirit without getting bogged down in the avalanche of stuff?

Sincerely,

Sheila

Bah Humbug! Ebenezer Scrooge summed up the frenzy of Christmas quite nicely, and if he were alive today, some say he is, he'd really have a field day with the complete chaos of the buying season. In fact, from the tone of your letter, it sounds like there's a bit of frustration and dread in your life as you gas up the old SUV and head toward the Pyramid Mall for an excursion into extreme Christmas shopping.

Grimm has already been tapped to participate in the hiring of Lansing's new business administrator, Penny Osborne, who will also be starting at Lansing on January 2.  Monday the Star had a chance to talk to Grimm about his background, philosophies, and his initial impression of the school district he will be heading up in only a few weeks.
