SICK!!

Last week I was just thinking how lucky I was since I hadn't been sick this year. Saturday I spent all day cleaning out the shop. At first, I thought a candle I had lit was making me sneeze and my eyes water, and my nose run. But then I realized it was the dust. I always knew I was allergic to cleaning! Yesterday, I spent the day wiping my nose and eyes and laying around feeling sorry for myself. Ciara helped me get the humidifier moved to my room. We fixed a nightcap of hot chocolate with marshmallows. She read me a Skippyjohn Jones book. She is a sweetheart. I am truly blessed to have such a sweet daughter. (Notice I am totally forgetting about all the messes she made yesterday!) This morning, I am achy all over and tired. Unfortunately, this is the week before the 4th grade writing test and the 3rd grade reading test. I could die and I would still have to work and tutor.

I am so sorry you are sick!!!!!!!! I'm afraid it is getting close to allergy season whether you clean or not.

I tried to comment last night to your blog about Teaching Sunday School and tell you that God has a purpose for everything and i think having you teach that class was all in His design...nothing happens by chance....and was for your benefit! Such a good lesson for us all. I couldn't comment then, because that tricky 'secret code word' did not appear!
