Hope your surgery goes well and your carpel tunnel doesn't bother you so much. Sleep well!

Carpel tunnel isn't pretty. My thoughts to you on your procedure.

I almost developed it, odd at my age, but not so odd considering the context. It was one of my bad depressed summers and all I'd do almost every day was play World of War-crack and WAR online. Games like this require alot of keyboard pressing for shortcuts, and the finger that pressed q and 1 was incredibly painful by the end of that summer. Never again, thank Jupiter I don't play that game anymore.

When I got home today at about 3 O'clock, I had to turn on the lights. It was already dark because it's dreary and raining. But it's unseasonably warm. I'm glad I got in the jogging before it rained, though I did cut it a bit short since I was feeling sprinkles.

I have to wonder if something tragic were to happen while living there if they will be congenial with God's plan.
I just don't get it.
Our first house was more than we needed, temporarily. We were pregnant with our first, HOWEVER we had plans to fill all the rooms...and we did, quickly!

It irks me when a small family buys a gargantuan house. I wouldn't want to clean it, I wouldn't want to ever own that much stuff to fill it and I think it's obnoxious.

I don't really care for those that focus on their "stuff". Your "stuff" does not make you a quality person and the only one that cares about your "stuff" is YOU. Nobody else gives a shyt.

I/we have a lot of stuff, but we need a bigger house.

It's not so much what they bought as it is claiming God was the one that made it happen. But as the saying goes they are young, dumb, and full of c**. But yeah 4 bedrooms and 2600 sq ft for two people and a dog is nonsense IMO. BTW they have posted pictures of the neighborhood and I am so glad we didn't move out west. By far worse than the vinyl villages around here.
I remember once seeing a note in a customer's car that praised Jesus for providing her with that MB. I wonder how much she would have been praising Jesus if she actually knew her cheapskate bastard of a son bought her a car that had been in a serious accident and was essentially butchered.

Yeah...Praise the Lord for the 4000sqft house and the $50K car in the driveway.

I can see thanking him for intangibles related to getting those things...but not for material possessions. Your intelligence, your health, your drive or ambition, the opportunities...etc. Not for your stuff.
