If you do a white wash, I think common sense would generally tell you "when it's finished, put it in a wash bag to protect your clean shirts from any dirt", so where does the "take it out, get coffee on it and then leave it on the sofa" come into it?

short grumble
So I'm sure you've been there, a house full people and washing up becomes an issue.
I'm not really one to moan at people to get theirs done, I would sooner wash up someone else's so I can use the items I want before I say anything. I suppose that's part of my whole argument avoidance I thinking I have in most (honest) domestic situations. So what bugs me? People who aren't amazing at doing their washing up (I'm one of them by the way, did I mention that?) watching someone spend a good half an hour cleaning the kitchen and then asking them to do the odd items that are left over from preparing food before work as if they have been there all week! I mean, neeerrr!
Now that I've vented, I'm going back to packing my life into boxes that have yet to arrive.

Bloggage
So I really should be in bed right now, but the kitchen is now tidy and my lunch is cooked and packed ready to go so I thought I'd best make use of the cool of the night.
Eh...that said, I've just flicked on to my previous post to use it as a guide on what I want to say and to be honest, this isn't going to be a 5 minute post.
Ah well... another time maybe

things I should blog on
Person 3.
Done, dusted, felling great.
Moving out-
Ahhh, need to pack, going on thursday
Person 4-
What to say, the end of this bit in my life
God-
Doing what I've asked and then noticing it, asking questions and not ever getting answers.
But I need to go to bed so that'll just have to be another one of my "I'll blog this another time" but never materialising post.

Amos 5.21-24 / Isaiah 1:11-17
So what I love about this song is it (for me) captures what God is saying, the beat down of telling the readers they've got it all wrong, however I think Jon captures God's heart when he says "Instead let there be a flood of justice!" "Give love to the ones who can’t love at all, Give hope to the ones who got no hope at all, Stand up for the ones who can’t stand at all".
Reading the text and listening to the song, it's not a shouting rant, it's a strong rebuke with a practical instruction. That's cool. I like that.

The Divine Conspiracy (Unabridged)
I just bought it off Audible.co.uk and I'm enjoying it thus far.
Only 17 and half hours to go.
That is all.

This wednesday
Person 3 is back in Norwich, we're meeting up and while I'm kinda anxious about what I'm going to say I can't wait to see them. It's been too long since we last met up for a drink (the last time I drank myself into a horrible state because I knew I had totally messed things up and didn't know how to deal with it, I'll tell you this for free, waiting for the next train home from canturbury at 9am when the world is still spinning is a horrible feeling...although, I did take a photo because I knew one day I'd be able to look back on that moment and laugh. That day hasn't quite come yet.) and talked and while I don't feel in any way it's going to be easy, I know it will be worth it in the end.

Having my hand pushed
I was on facebook last night, person three was online and I thought "I don't want to be having this conversation now" so I signed out of facebook chat and went on with what I was doing. About 5 minutes later I got a message pop up and it turned out I wasn't signed out.
I didn't want to start this conversation on facebook chat but it seems I didn't have a choice in the matter. I don't feel ready. I don't feel good about this. I'm annoyed at myself it's only been them making the effort to get in contact and I've been bottling out. I've just text them asking if it's ok to call like we arranged last night, not got a response as yet.
The thing that makes makes me sick to the stomach is that this person loves, they really have a grasp of what love and grace actually are and I feel so stupid as 'the christian' who seems to miss the point that they've thought about and got all along.
"Is there there a person four?"
"unfortunately, yes"
