For all two or three of you who read this blog, I thought I'd check in and let you know I haven't fallen off the edge of the world.
Actually, I've been working. Working my usual day job substitute teaching, and working doing supply preaching on Sundays, and working at Dick and Harry's Tax Service* on evenings and Saturdays.
And yes, working on the house. Woodwork is getting shellacked! Can't do that much at once, given the limited capacity of my sawhorses. But progress has been made.
A jolly lot more progress must be made, in the next two months. Yes, I have a deadline. My best friend from theological college in England is coming to visit a couple weeks after Easter, and I'm determined she's going to have a civilized place to sit down in.
