Now you're talking !:I hear that there will be much worshipping of God.
I'm good with that but,
also hoping to spend much time down by the River of Life.
It's hard thinking about being in church all week.

Now you're talking !
On the special moments bit, I recall what CS Lewis had to say; something about how if we told a small boy what sex is like he might screw up his face and ask "can you eat chocolate while you're doing it?", and how in the same way we can't really comprehend what a special relationship that's not consummated in that way might be like, so we feel a bit sad about it all.With a little more thought.
So, we know there will be no sex while in heaven.
Seems that I might miss those special moments with my wife?
But, to remember Heaven will even be much better than that.
But, an occasional cigar sure would be nice!

You will be so profoundly in awe and ecstasy that you will continuously
be praising the Lord as you both give and receive a constant overwhelming love that no one on earth has ever felt.
Moreover; there is no concept of time.
Nor will you feel any loss of time...it doesnt exist.
Bored? Never.
You're every second will be in worship of the Lord via the ecstatic love and peace that fill you so full it pours back out to God and others.
The Bible mentions that those who go to heaven do so with the purpose of reigning with Christ as priests and Kings. In other words, they have both priestly and administrative duties to perform. What is being administrated? Well what does Jesus rule over? Heaven, Earth, and the rest of the cosmos. I see no reason to assume boredom in being provided with such an assignment.
BTW
Wayy different from the idea of sitting on a cloud singing psalms while playing a harp for all eternity eh?
In a sin free world, what does reign mean?
And there's no life in the rest of cosmos. What does reign over them mean?
The Bible tells us that Jesus holds the position of king. That position would be meaningless if it did not involve governing a kingdom and a kingdom without subjects is even more meaningless. So the scriptures justify our conclusion that there is actual reigning over creatures and governing involved.
If indeed the entire realm of the material universe is totally devoid of life as you propose then the reigning over creatures would be over the heavenly realm where spirit creature reside and a paradise Earth.
However, please note that God delegates responsibilities to his servants. So if indeed the universe is in a preparatory stage in terms of preparing other planets for habitation then it isn't unreasonable to imagine that such preparatory work might indeed be delegated to those who are glorified to the heavenly realm and who would reign with him as promised.
