improving

Yes. Better day today. I think I'm almost through this.

Slept in a bit. Had the responsibility of leading worship this afternoon at church, which was kind of a joke considering my frame of mind most of this past week. So, I decided I'd better do something about it. Studied a Psalm for a while. Played with the cat, and then studied a bit more.

Spent about an hour preparing what I wanted to say for worship. Then had lunch. After that, yes. Some time wasting. But I didn't feel QUITE so bad about it, having done good things with the morning. Anyway, still room for improvement.

I am going to get on top of things this week. Plan meals. Pick up my exercise routine. Actually go out and get good photos. This week is going to be so much better.

The worship went well. People told me they appreciated it. I'm so glad. God did it in spite of me.

Rewarded ourselves with pasta and wine at a nice italian place, and then a scoop of chocolate ice cream. That's the end of the indulgence. And now I need to get to bed. A good day tomorrow is going to start with a good bed time tonight.

Oh. One final note. Mr. has begun studying about "sabbath" in the Bible, in preparation for our sabbatical next year. You can see that the Israelites did not observe the sabbaths like God commanded them to. Their subsequent exile added up to the number of sabbath years they skipped. If you neglect to take your sabbaths, sometimes God makes you stop in spite of yourself.

Anyway, I was just wondering if this past week's sickness was God's way of making me stop. My knee feels a lot better than it did last week; much stronger. Maybe God knew I was too stubborn to stop on my own, so He had to put me out of commission for a while. Hopefully I can resume exercise without irritating it.
