I'm pretending that I am almost well.  But my body is not cooperating.  I have been able to work through the day, and I've been mostly pain free.  But this evening I feel like I'm burning up and my neck is sore.  I have worked my shoulder hard too, and it is doing okay with just a minor amount of discomfort.  But put it all together and It makes for  enough aches and pains so that I really don't feel well.  I would have gone to bed an hour ago, but I had guys coming for work and for church.  So I decided that I would test my well being and do 60 minutes on my recumbent bicycle.  I could really tell that I have not done it for a while.  It tested me.  It didn't hurt like my 10 push us did this morning, but it was very exhausting and it exacerbated both my 'fever' and my sore neck.  Oh, I am so ready to get to bed.  It seems the only time that I can put the noise and the world away and just think.  One of the thoughts that I took away from conference (Richard G. Scott--Saturday morning) was that knowing a scripture is like making a good friend.  I find the same thing in a good thought or idea or 'nugget' so I enjoy the time to 'harvest' them.  When you get old and your body wears out that's mostly all you have.  I hope my mind doesn't get sick or wear out for a while!
