I have some catching to do.  I took my 3 day weekend literally and have not written for 3 days.  It wasn't that my days were not good days and worthy of recording.  It was my 'routine' that got disrupted.  My best memory from Saturday was during the 'pm' when we had our family visit to the temple.  It was just 4 couples that were able to come, but it was our oldest 3 (Sherri, Sharon and Richard) and it was a special evening.  My Sunday was good too.  After a couple of weeks 'off' it was good to get back to our word family and enjoy the spirit there.  Then I spent much of my day (as I had on Saturday) in study of my new 'obsession'.  Then came Monday.  My routine was completely obliterated.  I took my wife shopping!  Yes, we bought the furniture that she has been wanting for a long time.  Delivery is scheduled for Thursday and it is hard to tell who is happier: her for finally getting it or me for being able to do it with her.  My day had been changed so that work was not possible so we also went to dinner (Chuck-a-rama).  Oh yeah, we bought a new blender and if I didn't ruin it already we will start on a new and better eating regimen.  I must admit, however, that my very first effort was plain carrots and it wasn't very tasty.  I hope to get better.   Today is Cortney's first state tourney game and plan on being there.  So far my plan for my day isn't very clear:  so much to do and yet little things here and there with no real big theme task to define my day.  I guess the game is that and so I don't expect me to be much in a working mood the rest of the day.  At least, I did get this task finished, but the rest of the day is up in the air.
