I guess if I had been watching Cortney's softball game instead of the Jazz/Kings basketball game I would have been a lot more relaxed.  The girls had an easy time of it.  The Jazz made a shot with .9 of a second to win in a game that they might have won easily, but almost squandered a lead.  What was more surprising to me was that I was even up at all this late watching anything instead of going to bed early.  I got up when Sheila did this morning which put me an hour ahead of my usual schedule.  I figured I had so much to do and a guy getting here at 7:30 that I was pressured to get up and get to work.  I did snooze a couple of times during the day, but I could have gone to bed earlier, but chose not to.  The last couple of days my shoulders have been real sore.  I don't think it is my old friend bursitis this time, but it is an inflammation of some kind.  I did my 51 last night and it wasn't too bad, but this morning I decided on rest as my medical prescription.  I also iced it some this afternoon.  Then tonight instead of going to bed early I sat up and tried to not use my left shoulder much to allow for some restful healing to take place.   It still pains me with certain motion, but I am hopeful that more rest and a good night's sleep will work for me.  Despite my rest stops along the way today I did get some good work done.  My work week will tax me for another day, and then my weekend will bring work of a different sort.  Seems like I am not only trying to keep up with my working life, but my 'living' life as well.  Both are very challenging and a bit overwhelming.  But I have to figure that if I have made it now these 65 years I can hang in there a little longer.  (And hopefully a lot longer!)
