April 10, 2009 11:15 PM 48 days to go

It was certainly a lovely Spring day today and I took advantage of it by washing some windows! You don't realize how "out of shape" you are until you start to do a little honest to goodness work! After only a few windows, I was getting somewhat tired. So I called it quits, leaving myself with the remainder of the job to do in the days to come. There, obviously, is no hurry - I've got plenty of time. So it looks it it's going to take awhile to build up me strength once I get the OK to resume my normal lifestyle. I'll just have to go easy on the marathons, the bike racing, and the iron man competitions. It'll be tough, but I think that I am up to it.

There was no walk today, but there will be plenty of opportunities in the days to come.

It's Good Friday and Holy Week comes to it's dramatic conclusion in 2 days. About the only thing that I could do in observance of the day was to not eat meat. I won't miss tomorrow night's Easter Eve service because it focuses on the fact that Jesus is risen. The justification for this is that the service takes place after sundown so that, technically, the day is done and it is now OK to do this as it is the "third day" after the crucifiction. To me, that third day is actually Easter Sunday. But there are others who consider the service the most beautiful one of the year. So, to each his own, I guess. That's what makes the world go 'round.

As you might assume, I am doing very well as usual.

Just waiting for the count to complete...
