I did get back into the mood of working.  I didn't get everything that I wanted to do done.  But I did do a lot.  Of course I was limited because it was a holiday with no new stuff and I only had one guy go out to serve.  I mostly worked on tomorrow for Richard and then I did my year end books that I have been thinking about for the last week.  Now I am anxious to get the work moving and although I have enough work to start tomorrow I depend on new work coming in starting tomorrow.  Sheila and I still have lots of tasks on our list.  If I think about it and have some time I have plenty of tasks there that I really need to finish.  One of my big disappointments of today was that I got my sore throat back and worse then it has been.  I asked Sheila to go to the store for me and she did and bought me some really terrible tasting things that have done me some good,  but not enough that I worry any less that I might eventually have to go to the doctor for some 'real' medicine.  I don't believe that it is strep (Shelli doesn't either), but I do know that it has hung around way too long.  Tonight could really be miserable.  Sheila did go back to work this morning.  I wasn't ready to get up when the alarm went off at 6.  I did make it into the office by 8 though.  I am still trying to figure out my plan for 2012.  I have given up trying to use some thing that rhythms but I have come up with my theme:

'This' some how and in some way did make a difference to someone, some where at some time and in a real way.  'This' needs to be respected.   I showed it to Sheila and she understood what I was trying to say. I guess I actually have rubbed off on her some in these almost 42 years.  Now I have to get my sickly, old body up to bed and I hope that the alka-seltzer that Sheila also bought will help me to sleep some and that the sleep will help be get better so that I will feel better tomorrow.  I am getting so tired of being sick!!!
