What a week...

Aside from a couple of comments on other blogs, I've been rather disengaged from blogdom this week. I had a class for work, plus I've been having some painting done. The worst part of the painting was today. The popcorn ceilings in the living room, dining room and kitchen areas were painted, which was a messy, messy business. But, because of Hurricane Ivan, it had to be done.

Speaking of hurricanes, please pray for the folks in Eastern Texas and Western Louisiana. Hurricane Rita is a mean one...hopefully she will weaken some more before making landfall.

I'm not in the best of moods. Being exhausted, being really busy, having my house in disarray because of the painting (which, of course, can't be helped), listening to my mother complain about the disarray, and having to deal with buttinskies on top of all that makes me more than a little surly.

Lord, please get me through this week...
