We are both in the office.  I gave Sheila a check and she is paying our bills and I am doing this.  I was watching tv, but my interest waned so I did my walk over to the church and back and I will finish this entry and go upstairs to begin my going to bed ritual.  I did feel very blessed to be able to get the month of January finished off, and we should have a little to spare.  It hasn't always been the case for me to pay on time.  I've even been 2 sometimes 3 weeks behind so getting January paid before its complete is a good thing.  I am not ready to predict that this will be the trend for 2012.  I am quite afraid to do that.  But one month down and one month done.  I do hope that it will continue.  It seemed hard for me to get up and going this morning, but I didn't stay in bed very long after Sheila left for work.  I was in the office a little after 7:30 a.m.  And even though I didn't work myself to death I did get a few things done.  I took some time off too and I did have one stretch where I wondered if I was going to be sick again.  But alka-seltzer and some down time plus a couple of naps and I felt good. I did go out and gas up the car when Sheila got back from errands.  Now she won't have to worry in the early am and for the rest of this week.  I do wonder just what the week will bring.  Probably nothing on its own.  But I hope to keep myself busy and productive and hopefully well as well.  I do see simple and little victories every day.  And although I do hope for a few big and bigger ones every now and again any victory will do.  I have to admit that coming off of a Sunday such as yesterday makes it hard to compete.  I can only hope for a similar repeat when Sunday comes again.  Meanwhile my work day simple victories will probably have to do.  I'm still looking for something for our 43rd anniversary next Monday.  Right not I can't even imagine what we will do.  I wonder if life will give us something for that.  Maybe I can imagine it, hope for it, and even prayer for it.  It is a hope for the best and expect whatever happens sort of thing.  It's time for me to reload for I am about shot for this Monday the 30th of Jan., 2012.
