Sep. 28, 2006 - Getting sick!!
I can feel myself getting sick. Figures since we're leaving on vacation. My throat is starting to get scratchy. I can barely hold my eyes open and my head hurts. There is so much to do though. I guess it's time to spread Theives on my feet, drink more water than usual, and down the garlic. Bleech (except the for the Theives. It smells so good.)
We finished our 2nd six weeks up today. Yea!!!! I took the library books back to the library today and felt a huge burden lift off my shoulders. . .until I got home. There is luandry everywhere. Being behind on laundry will keep my loads down next week though. My kitchen is full of produce that I need to wash and eat. I need to make bread tonight so we can eat our pizza and have bread to eat. And I need a nap. Why am I am on the computer? Probably because I am avoiding dealing with some emotional heart issues right now. Alcohol isn't an option. I supposed I could drown my sorrows in chocolate but that would actually make things worse for me. There is always coffee but then I'd be up all night from the caffiene. Nope. I'll just bury myself in the computer and pretend life isn't happening around me.
Ok, well enough denial. I need to face the facts. I am getting sick. I need to rest for a while this afternoon. Then I need to suck it up and just do the work that God is calling me to. ..regardless and how my heart feels right now. I need to rest in Him. And so I shall.

ahhh-I come to the computer and do the same thing at times. It's nice to know I'm not alone, but I'm sorry you are struggling right now. Praying that you get a jump on boosting your immune system so that cold is kicked before it really sets in. Holly

You also might want to try taking a bath as hot as you can stand it with salt in it. When you get out wrap up in warm clothing and blankets if possible. The point is to sweat. It will open up your pores and help your body get rid of the toxins that are making you sick. The coffee would just make it harder for your body to get better so don't drink it right now. Eat lightly. Fresh garlic will work the best since you are using that. You also might want to "premedicate" everyone else with it so they don't get sick on vacation. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
Take 2 and call me in the morning. LOL

or getting rid of it earlier, but I did want to tell you that I will be praying for you and your family as you get ready for this trip!
I am also thankful that you have such a wonderful husband! Praying for your contentment at church too!
Blessings to you! In Him, Eva
