February 1st, how time flies! I just want it to fly a little faster into the warmer weather and then it can slow down. With our house still in transition, and the weather so cold, we can hardly escape! But by this time next week, I hope to be writing from a house completely free of contractors and needing only a little bit of furniture to complete. As I said, it is my hope, but one I will hold onto tightly.

My day was actually very productive. With only St. Patrick’s to cover, we were able to go out and look at some ideas to replace the furniture that was destroyed by the water. With both Amanda and I working, two Bible studies, and all the lacrosse and kid stuff, finding decent blocks of time to do things we need to can be difficult. I think we got a lot of it resolved though. We will see.

But as for me, I am going to call it a day and get ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow is Ground Hog Day, and I need to pray that the world’s most famous rodent meteorologist gets it right…..just in case the house doesn’t get finished!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless.
