Sick but Blessed

It's been a long time since I have been sick. I have much to be thankful for.

 

 

It started with a sore throat that I thought was chemical related from the solvents they used in the bathroom remodel.  But then it didn't go away.  Now it's in my sinuses and I'm running a low grade fever.  Miserable to say the least.

 

 

But I am blessed with a husband and daughter who are willing to go out and do the grocery shopping for me tonight and a son who is cleaning up the kitchen as I type.

 

 

I'm bundeled up on the couch with my long sleeved thermal shirt, fleece vest and my winter jacket zipped up to my neck. I'm running the humidified near by. I will sit here and drink Ginger Root Tea, read, relax, play Bananagrams and maybe watch a movie.  Anything to pass the time while I try to get better.

 


God is good.  I forget how much I have to be thankful until I find myself sick and not feeling good. It puts things back in perspective for me.  Sometimes we need that little "slap in the face" to set us straight, don't we?
