Thank you all for your prayers especially the last 3-4
weeks!! I was so sick with that sinus infection that I was given 3 rounds of
antibiotics and then finally 6 days of steroids also. After all of that and
tons of rest and time off of work I finally am feeling better. I don't think
that I am 100% yet but close to it! Due to being sick I stopped working out
daily as to not run my body down anymore. I did well with food choices though
as I was not in the mood to eat :)
So an update on being healthy...
Physically: I did not work out the past 2 weeks but this
week I did a mile on Tuesday and Thursday. Now that I did that and do not feel
sick or run down I will start on Monday doing one mile each weekday. This means
that I will be getting up at 4:30am in order to work out and get ready for work
in time. Please pray for me to not get sick again and also to get enough sleep
to help my immune system recover.
I also started taking my vitamins again as I had stopped
after Jimmy's passing. When he was alive I would put all of his meds into a
pill container on Sunday so that he did not forget to take any of his pills. So
when I no longer had a need to do this I forgot to take my own vitamins. So due
to that and all the stress that I was under my immune system took a huge hit. I
am trying to build my immune system back up now by taking my vitamins, exercise
and getting enough rest.
Emotionally: I started therapy 3 weeks after Jimmy's
departure to Heaven and that has been a huge help. My therapist is a widow
herself so she truly understands where I am coming from and tells me often that
I am normal. It has been such a blessing to be able to talk to someone that
understands and knows that what I am going through is awful. I feel that
emotionally I am doing much better than even 2 months ago. Praise God for His
healing!!
Spiritually: The last three weeks that I have been sick I
have not gone to Church, I am so happy to actually feel like going to Church
tomorrow. I need that connection with God and while I can read the Bible and
study on my own and pray at home as well, there is a need to worship Him with
others as well. So tomorrow I will be in Church again...praise God for healing
me physically in order for me to be able to go back to Church.
Creativity: I actually felt creative in the past week!! I
am so excited that I actually wanted to make something look pretty! I got a
spiral notebook from the dollar store and wanted to turn it into a prayer
journal. Here is the outcome...
Then I while back a great friend got me a spiraled index
card notebook to use for Scripture memorization and I decided to make it pretty
too...
