We just finished our hour together.  Actually it was just 45 minutes because it was an English TV program that was on channel 11 without commercials so it only lasted 45 minutes.  Then she copied some some stuff for her primary lesson next Sunday.  I reminded her that she has to get up at 4 am in the morning  She gave me the look that says that she accepts the fact, but doesn't necessarily like it.  I'm glad that she still works at the temple.  I give up going somewhere on Tuesday mornings, but that's really not giving up anything because I usually don't go anywhere anyway.  But I did go somewhere this morning.  And I was able to pick up work enough to help Richard with his day and it gave me stuff to do all day long. But I got that all done so tomorrow will be more of a challenge for me because I will have to be more creative.  The less timely tasks need to be defined better and I am not as good at that as I would like to be.  Coming off of a Sunday is usually harder for me anyway, especially a Sunday that was as nice as yesterday was for the two of us. So I have to focus harder then when I get into a week day groove.  Usually after Tuesday my mindset is changed and I settle down.  Then come Friday it starts all over again.  Been that way for years and years.   I wonder if it will ever change.

Sometimes I forget that I chose this way of life and it suits me quite well.  But anything can lose its appeal after decades and decades.  (What does that say about Eternal Life?)

I did get in an hour of exercise tonight. I usually feel the benefit of that the next morning.  For an old guy I believe that I am in pretty good shape.  There are guys in the ward who are younger then I am, but I think that they look older then I do.  Same goes for your mother (and grandmother).  And my 40 push ups, well, I'm not exactly sure what that says about me.
