There is Life After the Flu!

The beast has been vanquished! At least mostly. The last half of the week has definitely been better than the first.

I woke up Thurs morning with this overwhelming desire to clean my house.
Noooo, the fever had not escalated. I was actually feeling MUCH better. I washed dishes and clothes and tidied like a mad woman. DD4 kept telling me not to over do because even though I didn't feel tired it would come back to bite me on Friday if I wasn't careful. She was speaking from the experience of paying on Thurs for her own bit of energy on Wed. Fortunately she was only partly right.

Friday was a bit of a slowed down day but not a major setback. I managed to go into town to pay a bill and pick up a few groceries and ... that was it. Done for the day. But at least I got a little done before I collapsed.

Today I managed to make it to the program rehearsal at church. It was easy for me since all I do is sit and listen. Seriously, I am the official listener. I have the best job in the church! And because the program is tomorrow, this served as our sound check so we only have one song to go over at 8:45 tomorrow morning. Sweet!

The rest of the day was a serious do-nothing day. Well, except for the usual hack and blow and sound like a frog stuff, but, hey, it's still better than the laryngitis I've had all week. Anyway, the flu is on its way out of town and not a moment too soon, either.

Many thanks to all those who have been praying for us. God is answering. I just LOVE when He does that!
