I would love to think that I could say something witty or even deep this evening, but in all honesty, that will not be the case.  I am totally pooped from today, and although  I accomplished a great deal, I am also very far behind.

Fortunately for me, the high is going to be 106 tomorrow, meaning that I will not be highly motivated to leave the house and therefore can make a dent in all the stuff I intended to do today.  I will confess though that I had hoped to be caught up already.  Perhaps it is because I am now 51, or perhaps that it is because I did not estimate things right…..but it is what it is and regardless of the reasons, I need to get at it.

As a reflection on my life, today finds me older than I have ever been, over weight, a bit depressed about both those things, and needing to move ahead to fix them.  So tomorrow I have decided to begin to lie about my age, but the weight still presents a problem.  We will see…..but if I cannot get a handle on this (read my prior posts about my doctor speaking about my stroke and metabolism) I will be actually sitting WITH my mom and sisters rather than hanging out for lunch at their graves.  Listen, I get it.  I have to beat it, and I am certainly trying.  Just keep me in your prayers.

So it is off to bed for me….tomorrow will be a hot one, yet I intend to make a few things happen.  Keep me in your prayers….Lord knows I need them.  I really do want to live long enough to be a long term burden to both my wife and children.

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
