Exercise

For more than a month I have done a daily series of exercises.  I really don't know if my body has benefited from the routine that I perform as I listen to scriptures after saying my prayers.  To some extent I continue because I hate to break my streak.  A few weeks ago on a Sunday morning when I had permitted myself to sleep a little longer than usual I pondered if I could also give myself permission to skip the exercise, but I persisted against my own great desire to subside into bed and catch a little extra sleep.  There are a lot of small routines that have become part of my life in the past few months.  I keep adding others now and then.  Today at the temple I almost headed for the elevator before reminding myself that now I take the stairs.  I have counted 42 stairs from the first to the second level and I suspect it is at least 40 more to the third level.  This makes over 40 feet from first to third floor.
