New House

Sorry, people, I know the "I'll write once a week" went out of the windows this month!
We've been moving into the new house, scrubbing because it has just being painted, got the furniture, made the curtains, fixed the backyard...together with working, preaching, SAD etc etc etc.
So I'm exhausted at the moment, but happy to be into a house that I finally feel as mine.
If you go to the Flickr album you will see some of the photos, but we still haven't finished.
The Dining Room
We're still waiting to finish the guest room with a mattress, bed linen and maybe a desk. We'll see. We will have to finish it before the end of the month because STEVE AND SANDRA ARE COMING!!! WHOOHOOO!!!
But it's frustrating, especially for a woman, to have to wait and buy things a bit at a time, but what can you do?

So anyway, I'll take some more pictures later even of the lovely park we have opposite the house.

The field is going great. I found a girl who apparently studied a bit when she was young and didn't pay much attention until, and I'm quoting her here, "I saw the signs coming true". She was referring to Jesus' words obviously, but she remembers scriptures that I didn't expect her to remember. She mentioned the Maya prophecy about the end of the world but then she said "how's that possible if Jesus said that no one knows, neither the angels, nor the Son but only the Father?".
I was gobsmacked! She also has a lot of interesting questions about Revelation like "Why will Satan be released at the end of the 1.000 years?" or "Why is God going through so much trouble to save the great crowd?". I mean, she actually gives me a challenge every time without doing it on purpose, but I love it because I'm actually exercising my brain more.

So, this is it. More updates very soon.
In case you don't know, Spooky Trevor is in Italy as of the 18th of January for 3 months. So we hope he's going to enjoy his new need greating experience, the food, the wine and the landscape... and be careful not to come back too fat or engaged ok?
 

Ta ta for now

  1. Oh, come on! You excluded all the best parts of Italy! How can you expect me to have any fun if you cut that out???
    Ps, LOVE the house. Which one is my room? Hopefully we'll have power this time, huh?
    Ciao for now!

  2. What did I cut out???? Food, wine, landscape (ok let's add architecture here) and need greating... what more do you want from Italy? Glad you like the house. There will always be a room for you... with crazy internet speeds and no black outs (which by the way doesn't mean we're not having candle lights dinners).
