75 STRONG - Day 2

 I don't have trouble doing the PT exercises in the morning, but haven't disciplined myself to do the  second round I'm supposed to do each day. Must work towards that! Things happen, you know, and there's not a natural starting place like first thing in the morning. Maybe setting an alarm?

I drank a whole quart of water today! Plus a cup of herb tea. Ate 2 eggs for breakfast, my good lentil soup with meatballs added for lunch, and cabbage salad with 4 or 5 oz of chicken breast for dinner. My snack was some Keto Clusters, dark chocolate with nuts and seeds stirred in.

Chapter 43 - 45 of the B of M, the beginning of the War Chapters, plus listened to Unshaken, talking about the causes, negative and positive, of the two opposing sides of the wars. Lamanites cause was to gain power and control over the Nephites, whose cause was faith, freedom, and family.                                       Section 109, verses 46 - 50, prayed for deliverance for the Missouri saints as well as mercy on the "wicked mob" that they may "cease to spoil" and repent of their sins!                                                             Marlene and I listened to a conference talk during FHE tonight, President Nelson's "Embrace the Future with Faith." He speaks often of the second coming of Christ - the time is short!

I visited Darla this afternoon. She had to stay in bed today because a repairman had to work on her wheelchair. Besides she had a migraine. She seemed in pretty good spirits though and we had a good visit. I also talked with my brother Jason. HE called ME so I guess he was doing the service. I appreciate his help in staying connected with family! He calls me every week on his way home from work.  I also got a text with pictures from Amy Banks thanking me for Harley's birthday card. I love my friends and family!


I didn't sleep well last night, even though I got in bed only 15 minutes past my goal time.  Now it's already 15 min past and I haven't finished my post. I can't figure out how to post the pictures Amy sent so that will have to wait till tomorrow.

I'm mostly happy with my progress today. Being intentional should help me be more productive. And of course I did more things than what are on this list, such as enjoying a wonderful summer thunderstorm and 20 to 30 minutes of rain! I also checked in at the Senior Center and was able to use the recumbent bike for about 10 minutes. I got a name for a Personal Trainer too, that I will check out soon.
