Sick and Tired

In the literal sense.

It's hard to believe it's been almost a month since I last posted on the blog after posting so often before, but I needed a break. We had a great trip over Thanksgiving and returned home this past Sunday night after dealing with a lot of illness on the tail end of the trip.

I am still "tired" and hoping to feel like I'm back on my feet by the weekend. If not, I'm to get in touch w/my OB (had an appt. today and told her how tired and weak I was still feeling).

I won't go into all the gory details right now...like I said, I'm tired, but soon I'll give a summary of our trip. For now, I hope y'all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We did. I have so much to be thankful for and I pray I always remember how blessed I am. God has given me an amazing husband, beautiful, healthy children, a baby to be born soon, a warm home, a car to get around in and above all, the precious gift of His love to me. I could go on and on listing many more things, but I need to give my eyes a break from the pc screen - 2 weeks away from it and my eyes aren't too keen on looking at the bright screen any more. Probably a good thing :)

If anyone out there is still checking our blog, know that we're on the road to recovery from this illness and thankful to God for my wonderful parents who had to endure the plague as we arrived at their house w/a sick 2 year old and then the rest of us succumbed to the illness one after another while we were there. My mother got sick after we left and thankfully Dad is still well and able to take care of her while she recovers. Pray for us and for them when you think to please.

The Lord has been so good to me....you know how the hymn goes :)

Oh poor thing. Glad you all are on the road to recovery and about well by now. I pray that you will soon feel strong and ready for the holidays to come.

I want to sing His praise. :-) I have been looking through Psalms picking out some to go over with S this afternoon, and several of them focus on praising the Lord. L's Bible verse for today, "Rejoice in the Lord alway." That sounds like praising to me.

If you are back in blogland, you must be feeling an itty bit better. I'll keep praying that you'll feel better and better soon. Keep me posted.

I'm so sorry you've been sick. I was hoping that you merely were taking a break from the dratted computer and were hunkering down for the last few weeks of gestating. You know what - you should anyway. The blog can wait.

So sorry you were all so sick! Hope everyone is on the mend now!

Yes, we all have so much to be thankful for!
