Skipped

I skipped yesterday for a very good reason: I was working until 4:30am. I just can't pull all-nighters like I once could I got to bed about 4:30-4:45 and then I woke up at 7:30 to take my only child at home to school (late start, we didn't have to be there until 8:15) so I was able to shower before taking her, I had meetings at work at 9:30 and at 11:30 and I made it home by about 1:30pm yesterday, took a 2.5 hour nap and was back on schedule and here I am once again. Just a warning to anyone reading this: DO NOT GET OLD (although it is better than the alternative, if you know what I mean). My spirit is indeed willing to do things I once did but the flesh, especially mine, is all too weak. Anyway things are going well at work. Things are going well at home. Things are going well with the family. Things are going well all around, not to mean that "all is well in Zion" we still have to do the things that are making things well, i,e., reading scriptures, saying prayers, obeying the commandments, not being lax in our commitment to our Savior and if we do that, things will remain "well" for us and when challenges come our way, which they will, we are/will be, sufficiently grounded in our testimonies to recognize the challenges for what they are: opportunities for growth and to learn. Stay strong. Interesting thing happened to me yesterday, I felt guilty for not riding the bike in the morning and doing my sit-ups Monday night. Good news on the sit-up front: I got to my goal last night of 50! Yay me! I got 25 minutes this morning on the bike, level 14 on Plateau. New record in mileage for me also in 25 minutes: 8.4 miles. I am glistening not dripping even as I write this now. I am recovering quicker. It is good but I do not wan to say that I have skipped my exercises again.
