Accountability

Tonight after Bible study (which was awesome for me for the first time in a long time) Toby and I sat down and talked about our intimacy issue (we get a little too lovey dovey hubby wifey, especially right now because I'm staying with his family until I can find a job and another apartment). We committed to some pretty strict standards with a VERY harsh consequence (no kisses, not even a peck) if we slip up AT ALL. We realize that even though we didn't ask for the circumstances we're in directly (I didn't quit my job when he was changing his, I got fired) we need to work through the challenge set before us. I'm actively looking for a job, ANY job, and either he or I (him if he finds a roommate before I find a job and vice versa) will be moving into an apartment, with again, very strict standards and rules. Neither of us wants to lose the privillage of being able to kiss each other, but if that's what it takes then that is what it takes. We're going to call Mike and Deanna and ask them to hold us accountable for this commitment ASAP, but I would like those of you who read this to hold us accountable as well in confidence. I know we can do this and will do this... We have the rest of our lives to be together...
