WEEK 1: dreaded stomach flu -- in house of 4 people that means each one of us was sick for the typical 24-hour bug and half of day of recovery afterward.
Whew! There was that ONE day of feeling somewhat normal/better ....
when suddenly, acck-hem.... he (Sweet-T) feels a tickle, then a scratchy throat ... NO! We both consume every immunity supplement & liquid on our shelf, drawer & even buy more organic tea to drink (well anything helps)
uh-oh -- it didn't work. I felt it too - awwww, not again.
WEEK 2: Why is it that each illness started around Thursday ... essentially just before the weekend -- Grrrrr. Well, just the same, it really blows (noo really -- that nose thing is terrible). The head cold brings headache / sinus pressure that could fill a weather balloon ... and there you have it we were sick again.
Gratefully only 2 of us 4 ... but I still had to work as I am out of sick leave/vacation from the accident. Yeah, tell ya how much fun it is to try to function on a computer in a loud office of people chattering to customers all day and the screen so right my eyes hurt and sneezy/coughing/nose blowing ever few minutes ( then sanitizing everything after I touch it ) ... makes for a VERY tired, worn out, grumpy and all around gripey kinda girl. =(
WEEK 3: It's not completely over yet, but I can finally sit at this computer and type for a minute without pain & suffering. So I start this week promising to look through the top half of the glass rather than looking up from the bottom (as it totally felt like someone slammed the glass down on top of me and there's hardly an option to see it half full -- just completely overwhelmingly heavy -- which is crazy when it was half empty at the time --- hmmm?!)
So I while searching for encouragement on my friends' blogs K's calamities and Farm Suite (following links they shared, like Mercy) --- I found the LIFT I needed. Thanks friends. And that's when I grabbed this button .... and made a choice. No matter WHAT,
I am starting this week with an attitude of gratitude, I will remember that A spoonful of pretty helps the real go down. And, I am taking hold of promises: God's mercy is never ending and new every morning! whoo hoo!!
May your new week be BLESSED!!!
