Praying for Mist

August 17, 2008

365/186

To say “when it rains it pours” at my house would be a drastic understatement, it’s much more similar to a typhoon.  For me, that means God must be readying me for something big and for you it means, don’t stand to close, you might get very wet.

So here I am, on top of every other bump and valley, sick again.  My throat is on fire and my nose is running like a bucket.  Do you see that cute little blue eyed boy on the post below?  Don’t let his good looks fool you, he is a walking virus.

I wept on my daughter’s shoulder in the driveway, feeling very sorry for myself and wondering when I was going to catch a break.  I’m not usually the type that feels sorry for myself, but lately, I must admit, I have felt that way more often than not.

Unfortunately, pity parties do little to help, but I can dream can’t I?

Well, I’m off.  The NyQuil and I have a big date tonight.

    Enjoy your date! And no hangovers tomorrow, okay?

    Praying for you, Hallie. It stinks to be sick, especially in your very busy shoes.

    Oh I’m so sorry you’re not feeling very well! I will pray for ya tonight, that you get plenty of rest and when you wake up tomorrow, you’ll feel so much better!

    Big hugs,
    Elinor

    P.S. I myself have dated around a bit too…Ben Gay and Mr. A. Seltzer are the ones I tend to date most often. = )

    Hallie, feel better.
    It doesn’t help to have pity parties - but sometimes they are unavoidable.

    Praying and believing that this is just proof that ‘kitty sniffing’ works. It is always darkest before the dawn…

    love you and praying for this illness…though I’d have to say…you are such a beauty even if you feel rotten.
    A true beauty is one who can radiate ‘it’ even when under a NyQuil induced coma.

    You truly are committed - even taking pictures of feeling crummy. Yeah, pity parties don’t help in the long run, but sometimes they help let out some stress. Hope you’re better. :D
