Help Wanted

My wife loves to do scrapbooking, so much so that she has holed up in hotel room with a bunch of other scrapbooking ladies for the weekend. It's her first time going to the annual gathering of the group, and she's expecting to get a lot done and have a lot of fun.

So that leaves me alone with the kids for the weekend.

Me.

Alone.

(With the kids.)

Regarding my fight against pornographic internet temptations, this, if I am not diligent, could lead to trouble.

Naturally, I'm not planning on leaping into this mortal sin. During the day the kids keep me more than occupied, and the Stanley Cup playoffs are on (yay Sens, 4-1 over Tampa tonight!), and I've rented a couple of (non-pornographic) movies to help fill the time.

I'm also doing about 17 loads of laundry, and will be do putting a big dent in the mess in the kitchen too. "The devil finds work for idle hands," as they say.

But since this habitual sin can find its way into my heart at any time, I'm asking for your prayers on this late late evening of Easter Friday. Don't be afraid to email me for an accountability check too, as that's helped before.

You know, maybe there's something to this concept... are there other men out there who would benefit from an online accountabilty check like this?

If so, plunk it in the comments or email me (see sidebar) and I'll look into starting a sister blog for that very purpose.
