I'll be out for a few days on my honeymoon! We're going here to relax and hopefully catch a few glimpes of the sun. Hopefully I'll be back if I survive this climb...!

What could possibly motivate you to do this?

Why is it so hard to speak truth into your own life? Thank God for friends who do that for you!

my week

The excitement of buying a new house is slightly clouded when one enters the realization that one must sell the old one first. You enter into a new house elated to think and dream of all the work that can be done to it to make it your own. But in preparing to leave the old house, those same tasks are drudgery.

Welcome to my week.

1. clean the gutters
2. do something about that patch where the paint has peeled right beside the back door
3. "fix" the yard, re-landscape, something!
4. collect all of the dust bunnies and donate them to a stuffed toy factory
5. is there actually rotted wood under the soffit on the front stoop?
6. remove the sagging blinds so the window's appear to be at right angles again
7. clean, clean, clean
8. - 110. etc, etc, etc,

Oh yes, and make sure that you're finished by the weekend so you can leave on your honeymoon and forget about it all while you relax on the beach for a week. Yah, right!

A little funny for your afternoon:

Overheard on a racing forum by a French guy with an electronic translator:

"The rabbit of Passover spent this afternoon to bring my gifts to me."

Alrighty - I'm finally back

The wedding has come and gone. I
suppose it had to end, as all good
things must. But here's a tangible
reminder of how amazing it all was...
