One of the good things about homeschooling dd was the fact that you can't get other people's sick germs if there is no one around to get those germs from.

 WRONG!!  DH still works and now he's the one bringing home those nasty cold germs.  A few weeks ago he comes home and tells me how sick the guys at work are.  I tell him to just keep his distance from them as much as possible.  He tries.  Doesn't work, though.  He eventually ends up with this bothersome cough.  He's had it for two weeks.  I love him, but have tried to keep my distance when he's at home.  Didn't work.  NOW I'M SICK!!!  Except I don't just have a cough.  I have the works.  So much for that germ theory.  Just pray that I can recover from this cold quickly.  I DO NOT like being sick.  Having complicated heart problems I can handle, but a cold??  Come on now.It's easy to handle something that's been apart of your life since you were born.  It's hard to handle something thrust on you all of a sudden.  Like a COLD.  But, I do know who to contact to help me get through and endure things.  God.  He's been everything to me for as long as I can remember.  He's the healer of ALL our diseases.  Big or small.
