Father, forgive me for I have sinned. It's been a long time since my last confession (actually I've never been to confession... different religion, but just go with it). Besides the sin of gluttony and being slothful, I have committed the sin of coveting. I've tried hard Father not to desire after my neighbors worldly possessions. I try to clear my mind of all the envy and lustful thoughts that enter in, but today I have failed. While scraping the dried eggs and hardened cheese off of my plates and scouring the bowls of shriveled up cheerios (for over an hour), I entertained my carnal desires and thoughts of having my neighbor’s dishwasher.
Please forgive me; it was a moment of weakness. I promise to do better (until the next time I have to do dishes). I also promise not to covet my neighbors,- washer & dryer
- clean house
- sinks that drain
- toilets that flush
- (and while we are on the subject) toilets that aren't blue
- carpet that you dare to walk barefoot on
- a bathroom that doesn't have its own ecosystem
- doors that aren't paper thin
- cars that aren't mini vans
I ask for forgiveness this day (and pray that I don't get stuck by lighting from being sacrilegious). Amen

You make my day, seriously. I laughed pretty hard over your confessions.
Only three months left right?! Hang in there!
I seriously don't know how you do it. I mean, I would be seriously depressed living like that...I guess that says a lot about me. ;) Maybe I should go to confession too. You're awesome!
What thta is all you are going to truy not to covet. Thats nothign. You shoudl be fine, but if you do feel the lightening strike coming can you make sure you are not using any of my photography gear at the time, I am not covered for vengeful acts of god. :)
...but it's such a nice one.
I covet my sister's washer/ dryer set, it's so pretty. Sister loves it when I visit because I always do all her laundry -yes I love her washer and dryer THAT much.
OK,OK... I WILL FORGIVE YOU, BUT YOU NEED TO BE MORE HONEST... YOU SHOULDN'T WORRY ABOUT COVETING THE LITTLE THINGS LIKE A DISHWASHER... YOU SHOULDN'T COVET ANOTHER MAN'S HOUSE, OR HIS SERVANTS OR EVEN HIS ASS... YES I KNOW, THERE AREN'T MANY "donkeys" IN YOUR AREA BUT THERE ARE MANY ASSES IN THE WORLD.... H.F.
That was great!!! Loved it!
Cari
You don't have too much longer until you'll have all those things......RIGHT??
Only Three months left Whoo Hoo~ HA Loved it!
Unfortunately, even with a dishwasher you still get to spend hours scrapping dried eggs and cheerios off your dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. Sorry to burst the bubble.
Well I covet all the things on your list as well... someday we will be out of the Colony!
