Small Town Living

The nice part about living in a small town: When you don't know what you're doing, someone else always does.

Allergies....the saga continues......





They are back with a bang! Sore throat, hoarse (fam is okay with this part), itchy, sneezing, headache, body aches, chills, fever, black swollen eyes, (not ok with this part), no contacts, and loss of appetite. The last one is a biggy! I love to eat! Me and this allergy thing do not gee haw!!





Enough whining from me!





The lady with the real reason to complain is Mom. Which she never does..complain...that is. Trinia called yesterday to tell Mom that she spoke with the doc. He explained the he tried but could not break through to put the pic line in her chest. No apparent reason. He just couldn't get it in. The next step is to examine just where they can put it. They will be looking at maybe higher up on the arm, etc. All hope is not lost. It never was...because God is in control. And we have all the hope in the world in Him!

Singing..."My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus Christ.....On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand...."





My allergies are trivial in comparison. Don't we all want to be in the best physical health we can? I do. I want to feel great! One thing is for sure...I don't always get what I want. I shouldn't get everything I want. I should be thankful to the Lord for my health and the health of my family. That is one thing I take for granted.



I should take better care of self. But....that means eating better, getting enough sleep and exercising.....oh and no stress:) ROFL!!!! Yeah right...after I wash 5 loads of clothes, go to work, cook supper, ballgames, homework, dishes, more clothes, pay bills, and get groceries all before 11:00 pm each day. That pretty much wipes out any chance of taking control. But I'm not going to quit. I'm just going to rearrange my priorities! What should have been first on my list of to-do's is spending time with God.



You question my blogging skillz today? Me too! It's the fog I'm in:) Please excuse me. Really...I just sneezed:)



I'm going with what Proverbs 17:22 instructs me to do...."A merry heart doeth good...."



God bless,

Carrie
