Trying to roll with it....

So H slept on couch again, in his clothes, again....pitiful

Kids got up at 7 and went looking for H, found him sleeping in the basement...

We all ate breakfast together, and then went to church together. H has complained practically since Nathan was born about us being late to church. It was even a topic for Dialogue at Retro. How he hates to be late to church, would rather not go than rush around, etc.

I did a 180. Had the kids and I ready, dressed, and in the car before H came out...all he had to go was get in the car. We got there on time, for once! We went to a new church today.

It was interesting, the sermon was all about how we should be grateful we are children of God, that God gives us the power to avoid sin and that when we are tempted, all we have to do is ask him to help us avoid temptation. Then pastor talked about how once we have messed up in a major way, the only way to fix it is to ask God to forgive us. That we will walk around with a hole inside until we do that....he even specifically mentioned that a husband who has screwed up and hurt his wife needs to tell his wife he is sorry and seek forgiveness rather than avoiding the situation....

I was on the edge of my seat the entire time...:-)

After church we came home and ate lunch. Dan went to do chores but said he would be home for supper. Then he just stopped by 10 minutes ago to tell me he was taking the tractor to a town 40 miles away to get it fixed (he broke a part on it yesterday trying to load the cattle feeder)....I just said, fine.

So I told him to go do whatever he wants to do with his life and he is going to church with us, eating meals with us, living with us....
