I'm just so tired after work.
I know that is an interesting opening line, but what is going on? I'm thinking it must be the lack of movement. I move all day at work, but somehow, it must be different for old people.
Used to I could sit at a desk all day and then go home and work in the yard, milk goats, tend to chickens, clear brush, mow the yard (push mower), work in a garden and pick stickers. Oh my goodness it makes me tired to write it down now. Now??? All I want to do when I get home is sit and watch TV. I don't think it's the TV. I had TV even back in the dark ages when my kids were small. I wasn't any less active or more active than I am now.
I'm just thinking that it must be that I need to get the old heart pumping after 4:00 to get anything accomplished. But when you don't get home till 6 or sometimes 7 o'clock and then you eat and then what's left? watch tv and go to bed.
How do people live when they don't believe in Heaven? If there is nothing to look forward to than this old rat-race, Oh, my goodness, how do you live?
Now, I'm not talking about all the love, here and there, family, kids, grandkids, sure that's a given. That's what keeps me going here on this earth. And, I love it, I don't want to leave any time soon. I'm talking about the daily grind.
I'm heavenward bound!!!!!!!!!!

I know! We were talking about the same thing the other night...why are we so tired in the evenings? We want to play with the kids (and they're pretty active!) but after supper, baths, pajamas, and Bible story, we're ready for lights-out.
Maggie's favorite description of Heaven is that we never have to go to bed! My favorite description is "eternal rest"!! Just shows the different perspective from young to old.
