Up on time, then what happened?

I heard the alarm, finally, somewhere in the morning nether between my bed, the clock, 7:00 and 8:00, I slipped the covers and balleted the floor, turned off the alarm, and... went for my glasses on the far side of the bed? Something like that. And, while I reached for my glasses... *Bam* The sleep monster attacked from behind, with a pillow. Lights out. Well, that is my guess. I even went to bed at a reasonable hour, if it seemed to take all night to finally reach unconsciousness velocity. Never mind, I think I woke at nearly the speed of light and am ready to go. My lady friend's call woke me. How embarrassing. She asked if I was still asleep. Yes, of course. But I thanked her for waking me, this is the latest, or nearly, that I have slept in for two weeks. It is the only time the alarm didn't actually wake me when I got out of bed for it. Not much of a record, but it is what I have.

I think there is still time to get that check she was calling about ready to go so I can just drop it on the way to Mass. And I think I still have time to clean some vehicle windows and do a bit of straightening in prep for vacuuming. I have brushed, weighed in, taken all meds but potassium, and washed the roaster. It just would not come clean last night when I was washing the rest of the dishes, so I soaked it actually with full intentions of cleaning it this morning. All dishes done, all food was put up, and all actually within an hour of the meal, sum total, save the roaster. Never mind, I have today before me.

Just a few light things to do, but many calls to make. Some of them are going to be uncomfortable. I am neither a bad man nor an insane man, but I have done some questionable things and I will have to explain. Nothing really bad, but possibly suspect. When people look at your life, review it in an objective but uninformed manner, under a microscope, trust me, almost everybody will have things that at least look bad in the "books". If that doesn't make you sweat being judged by Christ you are probably a simpleton. Then again, with Christ, I won't need to explain the stuff that really wasn't my doing. But I do have to explain things that will mean nothing to my worldly judges. With the current crop of judges, I might have something to explain regarding having a cousin attempt to get me committed (if it did fail at least) so he could have my apartment for R&R for a few days to a week. So he could enjoy himself without me expecting him to clean his room, be to work and on time, and help with cleaning the rest of the apartment... along with my other rules. Don't drink out of the milk jug! God knows I didn't deserve that. Now, my methods are sometimes over the top, but safe if it might not seem so to sheep. I am a bit of a go-getter and if I see that harder methods are needed I will use them.

Anyway, I need to get going. I have much to do and little time. Race?

Be well, do well, and never quit. To be honest, I don't think we get to quit when we die. Those in hell have quit, those in purgatory considered it but now have to continue working harder than ever, and those in heaven, to my mind, have tasks that await. If we are truly children of God, as I contend, then we will grow up into what God intended. I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with 72 virgins, alcohol, and sloth. Further, when our souls are purified, and more when our bodies are refreshed into perfected flesh, we will then be living again but as Adam and Eve where intended to live. So, don't quit now, you have an eternity of work before you. Albeit, in perfected flesh, you will not age, work will not hurt, and food will not be a consideration as it will just be there. The same with the need for housing. It is, I would guess, the only form of King based socialism that will ever work. How will it work? I have no idea other than God said this is how it will be and I believe Him.

"Doh! Shut up and get to work"! "Okay." Later.
