... a future oldywed with no regrets

When the Lord joins man and woman, the two as one shall be, yet in the home they share with Him – in faith, the two are three. He multiplies their blessings, their sadness He divides, and for their different dreams and needs, He equally provides. He adds to their fulfillment and takes away their care, and one in Him, their total life abounds with love to spare.

2. Windex. But not just any Windex. Windex that doesn't leave streaks on the hard-to-clean stovetop, even though that's not the actual cleaner for it. 3. Swiffer Wet Jet! Pete calls it a diaper on a stick, but I like it. In other news, my favorite snack is an apple with peanut butter and chocolate chips. Like this:Plus a small glass of milk (see background). Mmm, deliciousness.

We now have a couple of extra "pets," both wandering cats that we haven't named yet. I saw one sleeping on our bench and thought it was dead, but I was wrong. (Which is good because I don't know how to dispose of a neighbor's dead feline.)Pete has also discovered what happens to gummy worms when you leave them in a hot car too long:
