Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
*sigh*
How quickly you go back on your principles! ;-)
:-)
I think it's the timing more than anything that makes me suspicious...Right here within a few months of graduation and everything hits at once (Well, ok, over the last year...)
It's ok! I'm very optimistic.
But I wonder if I could find that part on line? That spring? It's massive...like 3" in diameter and 4' long...heavy duty spring...
See Hair? Pure evil.
See if you can find out the name of the manufacturer of the door.
I was actually trying to illustrate my point there....
Take the broken one to a hardware store. Not a big box store, the local place where the old guys hang out and make remarks about new-fangled power drills. Ask them if they have something similar, or if they can order one for you.
"overhead door"
So being lackadaisical and relatively unchurched is a ~Good~ thing?
Heheh...yeah! In this life...
;-)
I dunno...that word "enticement" is purty durned poetic...
Heh...
Agreed! He always remembers us when we have forgotten all about Him...which is easy to do in my household and a daily problem.
Corin, I SO empathise over the accident you had with your son. I had a collision (my fault) when Erin was still using the car seat (back seat), and I crossed an intersection that I was quite certain (at the time) was my right of way, but ended up broadsiding a vehicle filled with twelve children, most of whom were NOT buckled. Fortunately, I was not going very fast, and no one was seriously hurt, thank God. But I felt so incredibly stupid.
God bless!
Don't make me bring out the BIG Bible...
I'm not going to turn this into preaching Hair. But quite seriously, the strongest warnings in the Book of the Revelation were to the churches who were "neither hot, nor cold."
I'd just encourage you not to be too casual about your faith.
< /second sermon >
You noticed that one? I was thinking using that word might damage my argument hehehe.
Or maybe even "my sinful nature means I don't really even need the devil's enticement to do what I ought not".
It's got a warning tag right on it saying something about extreme tension and danger...
I tell ya, I nearly had a heart attack when it broke, it made such a horrific noice and I couldn't see Joshua...I started screaming "WHERE ARE YOU!" (He was between the cars) and Steve said "I'm right here!" Well, I could SEE Steve! I said "NOT YOU! JOSHUA!" Joshua came ambling around the front of the car and said "Well, THAT startled me!"
But that uses 'enticement' AND 'ought' so it is even more poetic.
OK friend. Point taken. :~)
Anytime you'd like the full sermon series, just let me know.
