Aha!

 I figured it out!  Thank you for all of you uplifting and enlightening reminders about my purpose here on earth.  As wonderful as it is to live here, I am lonely.  People who live near enough to family to have daily or weekly contact with them are more lucky than they could possibly imagine.  You have instant, loving support.  You have a reason to intertwine your lives--a check up system, instant friends for your children, and babysitting.  I have that here, but it took until this summer to get it.  Now that it is fall, I have lost some of that feeling.
 When I started the walking group, it filled a void.  Now that it is too cold, I don't have adult interaction, nor do I get exercise.  So, the plan is to bug Bro. H until he gets me a key from the Stake President, that way we can work-out at the church.  I've had this plan for several months and have been doing a fair share of begging, but there has been respite for him in the last little while.
  Daily exercise will help me be more active so that I have to get out of bed, and not stay there to read all day.  Even though I am enlightened by the things I read, I should be enlightened by the things I am doing, not just thinking.  Good plan?  

On a pleasant note, this is my sister Julie and my parents.  Isn't she stunning?  I think so.  She graduated with a bachelors in nursing a couple of years ago.  She is at a transition period in her life, so we are praying that this crossroads will lead to happiness for her.  She works as a hospice/home health care nurse.  She is very talented and patient.  Any man would be lucky to kiss the ground she walks on.  I love you, Julie.  Keep up the good work and happy life you are carving out for yourself.
