I made a mistake.  BYU won that 5th set by a score of 15-10, not 15-13 like I wrote.  It was such a good match that I watched that 5th set over twice today.  It was almost as exciting the 2nd and 3rd time as it was the 1st time.  It was a nice diversion from my work which took up most of my day until Sheila got home after her 6 hour work shift.  She recently turned down an invitation to apply for a six hour shift for the rest of this year and next year.  She had turned down the offer and today reaffirmed that decision. She only did it because she was asked to substitute for just today. I know what she is talking about because I too suffer from old age and feel the effects of my efforts, especially when something extra-ordinary comes along.  Here it is a Friday again, and my 5 day work week has had its usual affect and I am quite tired and looking forward to a less stressful and less work-filled weekend.  I do enjoy my down time because it gives me an opportunity to ponder, even study, and I have several ideas that I want to spend time on.  This computer makes it so easy and productive.  All I need to do is type in 'narrow neck of land' and there are articles galore on my current subject of interest for me to study and think about.  After a discussion with our home teachers the other night I found information that shows a different conclusion then was given then.  I won't come out and tell him he was wrong--or maybe I will.  He can take it, and it will open up other stuff that we can discuss.  This is a whole new idea for me to try and explore.  I am putting some effort into where the history of The Book of Mormon actually took place.  I find it fun to ponder and discuss, especially since I don't have to take it too seriously because it doesn't matter where, just that it did take place.  That I know, the other falls under the 'nice to know' category.   I am also trying to get to know this guy that I have become.  T V appeals to me less and less.  Even my nap time is filled up with deep thought and I find so much that I want to learn.  If I was only this motivated back when I was actually in college....  It is so much fun for me to discover new ideas.  They come to me from almost everywhere and almost anytime.  My thirst for knowledge is insatiable.  I consider it all spiritual nourishment and it is as good as our visit to the Golden Coral was for us tonight.  Maybe it is a perk of our old age empty nester era of out lives.  Whatever, it brings me great satisfaction.  Add that to being able to enjoy the 'rejoicing' part that comes from being a grandparent and I am in a pretty special time of my life.
