Sunday

Character is who you are when no one is watching.

That said, today I am feeling under the weather. May be the stomach thing going around. So for the last few weeks Nabal has been doing a lot of cleaning that mess he's got going out back. I think he has it in his mind that all he has to do is clean it all up and I won't be 'mad' anymore. He has been asking every day, not asking but trying to affirm that I will sleep with him. Noooooooooo, and no again. I'm working my way out. Oh, and he is now, by default, preaching at his church.  Default? Yes, there is no one else who speaks English and can communicate with the English church. So he spends a few days a week putting together whatever he's 'preaching.' Sometimes he's drunk. He's preaching to a church that believes any form of alcohol is a sin. Shouldn't he at least honor that while he's studying, not to mention that the bible warns against drunkenness and carrying on so you have to hide what you do from other believers. This morning while he was putting the finishing touches on the 'sermon' he came downstairs to get my computer. He was on FB, no crime. Looking through all Mary Sims Pictures for an hour and some other Hispanic young thing. The last I noticed was that he had been on Youtube looking up Mary Sims??? He left his FB page open so I checked out Mary's page. I had to laugh, the woman had simply liked Youtube on FB, and he was sure he was going to find something with her in it. His mind is really not grasping a lot these days. He forgets an awful lot. I think his drinking has gone pretty much underground even from me, and I stopped caring a long time ago.

My my boy is taking so after Nabal's family. He's jealous and always mad about something. He's listened to his dad's advice for years, and to his uncles berate women for failing to answer a phone each time they get a whim to call. He's listened to his lecherous uncle give dating advice. They set him up. It's like whatever I taught him had absolutely no effect. Why should he? They make it seem that anyone who disagrees with them is a weak fool, they ridicule in the most immature manner. They live off every woman from their mother on down in some way, shape or form. They get mad, throw a fit and everyone waits on the. Gee, for them it seems there is no downside. I do see why women in Nabal's country are such takers. They are trying to make up for all that is taken from them, but they just make prisons for their sons and daughters.
