"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house." Matthew 5:14-15

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Matthew 13:45-46

Back to Normal?

Today is my first day to feel semi back to normal after being sick for almost two weeks. Yesterday I slept for most of the day. Last night I wrote in my journal wondering when I would ever feel back to normal again. I awoke this morning finally feeling more like my self and less in a fog like I had been.

I would love to jump back into things and get caught up on all that has been stacking up and waiting while I was sick, but I also know that when I do that I tend to wear myself out and go backwards on the road to recovery. So I am trying to do some things today, but also take it easy as well. Both my boys have been feeling under the weather so it has been a slow day. For me that means NO DRIVING! :) I relish the days when I can just be at home and have nowhere to go. I guess I'm a 'homebody' by nature.

So today find me trying to get caught up with the laundry, actually helped out a little with school work for my youngest son, and resting in between. My mind has been thinking of ideas for the article I need to get written this week for the Home School Enrichment magazine. I still don't have any definite plans yet, so hopefully that will come together for me soon.

Thank you for your prayers for me. I appreciate it. I pray that God will bless each one of you!

I am so glad that you are feeling better! And I do agree with you --easing back into your 'normal' is important or else you could land back in bed. May your road to full recovery be swift and uneventful!

Happy to hear you are feeling better! I know what you mean about trying....or wanting....to get back in the swing of things now! I think I did that too quick and am having a little relapse of my cold. Bummer!

Take care of yourself!
