Hello again to SD!  I'm alive after all after going quiet about 3 years back.  In the meantime I've graduated college, started my career, moved out (all in a month's time only) from my parents, bought a house (still tinkering with fixing it up), and got married, while residing in beautiful N.C. WI.  Good to see lots of familiar faces about! :cheeseheadbeer:

Good to see you again.  If I remember correctly (and that is a big if) you were trying to decide whether it would be a good idea to move out of your parent's house.  And here you are, all graduated, moved out, AND married!  That's awesome!  I hope you all have a long, happy, and holy life together.  I look forward to reading your posts again.  Welcome back!  :cheeseheadbeer:

Littledrummerboy, have you been able to get out from under that humongous pile of confetti?

Congratulations on all those accomplishments during your three years of absence!

Servus, you are always so much fun!  But if I go away to do great things I think it will be for less than 3 years.  ;D
[Matthew 8:26]  And Jesus saith to them: Why are you fearful, O ye of little faith? Then rising up he commanded the winds, and the sea, and there came a great calm.

[Job  38:1-5]  Then the Lord answered Job out of a whirlwind, and said: [2] Who is this that wrappeth up sentences in unskillful words? [3] Gird up thy loins like a man: I will ask thee, and answer thou me. [4] Where wast thou when I laid up the foundations of the earth? tell me if thou hast understanding. [5] Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it?

Jesus, Mary, I love Thee! Save souls!

Close.  What happened was I took a HUGE leap of faith and proposed to my wife when still in school with no career yet and still living 2 hours away. On the other hand I've never been more sure of anything in my life that God wanted me to marry her, and all that year I had kept having thoughts I'd have to be moving on, so I started collecting boxes, etc, which worked out because when I got the call for my job I moved out in 5 days.

It's so nice to have you back!
In conclusion, I can leave you with no better advice than that given after every sermon by Msgr Vincent Giammarino, who was pastor of St Michael's Church in Atlantic City in the 1950s:

    "My dear good people: Do what you have to do, When you're supposed to do it, The best way you can do it,   For the Love of God. Amen"

Welcome back and congratulations!

Your leap reminded me of mine.   I was working part time when I proposed.  Five months later, I had two job offers, both of them relatively close to our families.   Unfortunately, I could only take one of them.
The royal feast was done; the King
Sought some new sport to banish care,
And to his jester cried: "Sir Fool,
Kneel now, and make for us a prayer!"

The jester doffed his cap and bells,
And stood the mocking court before;
They could not see the bitter smile
Behind the painted grin he wore.

He bowed his head, and bent his knee
Upon the Monarch's silken stool;
His pleading voice arose: "O Lord,
Be merciful to me, a fool!"
