In keeping with my unanticipated tradition of devoting no more than half my journal to its purported raison d'être, here's an update on the house we're building.

oh thank you and your lovely wife too!..i shall call you Pete..no..I shall call you Richard, since this is what you most offer.:=)...thanks for checking Charles out..yes...he is newly espicopalian,and loving every minute. he is also, a mason, too. we skipped a couple of generations on that one. and there has never been a "piscopalian" in the family..we are a family of firsts..lol..but, maybe some of them infamous and definitely not famous, although, my daughter is working on that. she is currently working an extra in commercials, her real money comes from working for a resort that sells time shares, she does the tours, and then she is a writer of plays, and short stories. she wrote a musical/comedy at the Fringe Festival this past weekend. She got terrible reviews, the first night. The reviewer was a gay person, who did not like anything but anti-God, or gay plays, and wrote a scathing blistering review in the Orlando Sentinel the next day. So instead of getting mad, she is going to write her next musical comedy, to submit in the fall festival, about a gay reveiwer, who is anti-God, who writes reviews for the Orlando Sentinel..think she will get a better review.?...that is my daughter Marisa. She is 29 this year, not until October tho. She also, does commercial modeling. Not married. Not wanting too, she hasn't met the man, that can match her. Hope she can find him..lol...thanks, Richard, for being my friend.:=)

You never know... there may be a few other Episcopal skeletons in the closet.
