I'm starting to go into basketball overload.  But it isn't quite the same because the one game that I wanted to watch was earlier today and I was able to see almost all of it after the twins birthday party.  Well, it took about all that I had.  After that it was just going through the motions.  My BYU team played its biggest game to date and I was really in to it.  I was offered pizza at half-time, but I could not eat.  I got as excited about a game as I have in years.  And I was really happy to watch them win.  Earlier in the week I had watched the 'experts' pick the winner and they all picked San Diego State.  The Y is just not athletic enough.  (You know what that really means, don't you?)  So when the game ended near 2-2:30 I was pretty much done for the day.  Because I wanted to be productive for the day I did do a couple of tasks.  I made choir phone calls and I spent time preparing for my priesthood lesson for tomorrow.  But I will go to bed early because I am wiped out and because I will have an early morning in order to be ready for choir practice after showering and shaving. (My normal once a week ritual.)  I was fortunately to have Sheila cut my hair this afternoon.  I was really getting shaggy and I did want to look 'un-shaggy' tomorrow.  Our ward choir is singing in church and I know I won't do very well and as a choir we are pretty average.  But it is something I have to do even though I don't actually enjoy it as much as I used to. ( I can't sing as well as I used to either.)
Then I have to finish off my home teaching with two visits tomorrow.  That will be a good and productive way to fill my Sunday with good Sunday stuff.  It will be nice to not think about work and try and think about the things one should think about on a Sunday.  Its is hard to believe that February is virtually over with.  Here we are at day # 57 with 208 days left in 2011.  That means that in 235 day I will be 65 years old.  So you only have that long to properly save and shop for my present.

  1. Am I imagining it, or did you say that you only shower and shave once a week. Your "weekly ritual" you called it. I get the only shaving once a week, but only showering once a week?? I know you work in your own house dad, but really!!! :-)
