I look like I'm 15 again! Yeah, it's so cool to have oodles of acne everywhere....thank god for bangs. :P
Tim's Mom called tonight to tell us that his Dad got a calling at the place he is currently at. What a freaking relief! We won't have to move them ... hopefully...ever again. She has a LOT of crap. A lot. But the place they are in right now is really nice, it's like a five bedroom house, full kitchen, living room, foyer upstairs, fully finished downstairs level with a patio and lots of light, three bathrooms, big garage .... oh and it's out in the middle of nowhere, but they don't care. I wouldn't either. It's a dream come true for them. Believe it or not, I'm really happy for them. Finally, Rev. Tim is in a place where he is wanted and appreciated. :D
Tonight was a great TV night -- How I Met Your Mother, Heroes and then The Riches. I was able to put some quality time on finishing my afgan. I have to finish it in two and half weeks -- as I plan on giving it to my Mom for Mother's day. I hope it'll be big enough. It said it was Afgan throw...so maybe it might be better for when she is sitting. I would be tempted to go out and buy more yarn to make it bigger, but then there is no way in hell I'd get it done. I'll just go with the recommended pattern size. I don't always have to "improve" things.
This last weekend was great! Tim totally did stuff around the outside of the house. Not so much on the inside -- and for some reason when I came home from work today I noticed that all the work I did last week was demolished! The mopped floors were dirty again thanks to a dirty dog and yard working husband...there are still piles of crap on every surface because I REALLY need to finish them and if I put them away then they won't be finished (tomorrow it will....and this time I mean it!). This week though, the house will be worked on. I am sick and tired of it being so piggy and unorganized. Oh wait, I might forgoe the house to catch up on correspondence...hm that is a very tantalizing thought. If I do that, then I'll have mail to wait upon WHILE I clean the house. Because you know, it's just gonna get dirty again.
I should go and put the clean laundry away that is strewn on the bed...but instead I think I'm just gonna shove it back into it's basket and just go to bed myself. Tim will be home soon from his Monday night game and has to let the dog out, take out the garbage and feed the possum. I should be pretending I am asleep by then.

I wanna know what it's like to "get a calling". Like... does he wake up in the middle of the night to the sound of a disembodied voice saying "you will go to _____ and lead the people to ______"? or is it that the church votes to let him stay? or perhaps simply that he and his wife sit down and decide that this is going to be it?
curious....
and... I'm with ya on doing other things and leaving the house somewhat messy - it's a never-ending task, so why fight it? :)
I myself am struggling to make myself fold and put away 4 loads ofl aundry instead of just picking what i need/want right out of the basket at the side of my bed ;)
