Hot Tub

I bought a hot tub, which was delivered today. I have it all hooked up, filled with water, and blowing water. I have been struggling for the last year with hip pain, so I decided to give this a try. It is about three steps from our bedroom door on the back porch, so it is only about six steps to my bed when I am limp like a rag from the heat and water jets. It sort of reminds me of the old pickup we had on the farm when I was a kid. We were always fixed it to get a few more miles out of it. Even with my aches and pains and the various body parts that have quit working, I am functioning quite well. I can study, read, memorize, write, and teach as well as ever. I can fish, hunt, and work on projects around the house. I am starting on a big chicken house this week as soon as I get the chicken fence done, and I spent a couple of hours today buffing the paint job we just finished on the 1969 Mustang. I move much slower than I used to, take a lot of ibuprofen, and take rest breaks regularly, but I still get almost everything crossed off of my to-do list every day, even though there is less on it now than there used to be. God is good, and I thank Him all day long, every day, for my blessed life. My daily goal is no grumbling, complaining, feeling sorry for myself, and saying thank you all day. Jesus is coming soon.
