What a roller coaster ride of emtions the past week has been!
Sunday we had a great time of worship in song. I felt the Lord’s presence as I haven’t in a while. My heart was touched by a man who gave a testimony of living in fear of his Muslim wife’s leaving him if he lived his life for the Lord. He finally realized that obeying God was most important, and is ready to face whatever consequences arise from that. Wow. Tough stuff.
Monday I was hit hard with PMS. It was one of those days when I couldn’t say anything right, and the harder I tried to, the worse it got. I HATE those days.
The rest of the week seems like a blur. I do know my emotions were brought under control, and aside from being really tired and my fibro acting up because of the weather changes, I’m feeling more positive than I have been.
This coming week will be busy. Tuesday we see Dr. Smith; I am apprehensive about the next treatment for Phil. Two reasons. First, the unknown. I honestly have no idea what he will suggest, so I haven’t been able to research anything. For me, knowledge is power, it brings peace. Second, I’m scared that this next treatment won’t work, either. Guess I’m where I need to be – I have no other choice but to trust God! Let’s see – Thursday we both go to our primary care doctor’s office. Phil will get his last round of immunizations (finally!) and his flu shot. I’ll get a flu shot and see the doctor. I thought I ought to check in; if Phil’s treatment involves weekly (or more) trips to the hospital for treatment, my own needs will be put on the back burner. I’m supposed to go stitch with Cheri that night.
Goodness! I forgot the most important thing! Friday is my birthday and we’re going out to dinner with my parents. We chose Carrabbas – again. I don’t think Mom & Dad have ever been there, but I’m sure they’ll like it. We can’t afford to go there ourselves; the last time we went, Phil’s folks had given us some money and we treated ourselves. The bill was just over $100!
Oh, yeah. A very busy week. I’ll have to be getting to bed much earlier, something I need to be doing. Part of why I feel so horrible is that I stay up WAY too late. And speaking of that, I’m going to go to bed now.
