Been in the new house for about a month, and we love it. Every corner of it reminds me of my Zanne-Zanne. I really feel that we worked together perfectly to create each part. I love the dark hard-wood floors and cabinets, the beautiful stained staircase, and, of course, the porch. Zanne painted Joe's room, Kadey's room, and the guest room, and they look amazing.
So far I installed the chandelier, fixed up the family room ceiling fan (after Matt installed), installed Joe's and Kadey's fans, installed edging on the flower bed, and cleared out the garage. I'm contemplating what to do with the east side of the house--there are lots of possibilities there. Mainly, we need to save and budget for projects.
Meanwhile, I'm completing a few projects at the Lab, trying to clear the decks so that I can get back to writing about the evolution of strategy in the war on terror.
Played a great game of Combat Commander: Europe with Peter the other day. I set up an American defense against his German night attack. Although his attack on my left flank was making progress--especially with the flamethrower--it was too little too late, and I won.
Have been looking hard at the evolution vs. intelligent design debate lately. A frustrating endeavor, because I feel torn between evidence in both directions. In the end, I'm concluding that I should relax. Never be afraid of the truth. Never accept the conclusions of any particular crowd, because fanatics lurk everywhere, and they can't be trusted. Remember that "science" is the same crowd that decides every other year that eggs are good for you/will kill you quickly. Scientists used to believe rats spontaneously generated from garbage and that the earth was the center of the universe.
In the end, I will die and know the truth. And then I will laugh at all of you ignoramuses.

With my geology background, I used to be such a huge advocate of the God-had-a-hand-in-evolution believer. Then, authors like Henry Morris, Ken Ham and Andrew Snelling got me looking in a different direction. When I finally read His Word with an open mind, I felt like I really had the answers. God has given us what he wants us to know---the rest, we'll find out later, but much of it we can know by our faith in Him and in His Word. THIS is one of those topics. Try some of these authors, Bob, you'll see that they'll lead you to the answers within His Word.
I read my own blog so infrequently that I just now saw your comment! I will look at those authors. Thanks.
