It's been a long time since I've been sick. Let's see, I think last Christmas was the last bug. And I'm not REALLY sick right now... just feeling "punk" as my Dad used to say. I've had a long list of colds ever since school went back in... plugged sinuses (the less we talk about that the better) and now the latest is an ear infection that has me wobbling all over the place, trying to find out where we keep the floor.
I am so tired of losing my focus on what is really important, and focussing instead on my sore nose. My tired, watery eyes. My kleenex bill. The things that are getting left out are my kids. Projects at work. Keeping ahead of the laundry. Spending time with God. (Could God still love me when I'm whining and pitiful?)
It's just tiring. I don't like feeling whiny, since that's really not who I am normally.
OK, enough with the pity party. I'm going to use Dristan tonight, get a good night's sleep, and awaken refreshed and ready for the day, tomorrow.
Did I mention I have a sore ankle too?
