Finally....Friday!

It has been a really rough week here at our house.  It actually started last Thursday when I started with a sore throat and chills...well as the weekend went on I felt worse and worse so early Monday morning I called the doctor..went in and found out I had sinusitis and bronchitis..gave me a antibiotic prescription and said to use a vaporizer 'all the time'...came home and was thinking this wasn't going to be too bad, but Tuesday was terrible, coughing, feverish, achy, and spent most of the day in bed.  Hubby had started coughing on Monday so he went to the doctor Tuesday...diagnosis?? pneumonia!!  They also took an xray and prescribed antibiotic..so all that to say we have ended up being 2 very sick retirees!!  I don't think I can remember feeling this terrible with a illness in years!!  We have had lots of prayer, lots of encouragement, but it seems to be taking a really long time to see a big difference..Something sort of weird happened with hubby..after not having any sinus issues, yesterday he started sneezing, and very congested in his sinuses..seems backward to have that now but he is pretty miserable!!

I had come across this verse a while back and thought that after this week it was a good one to share here...























As awful as this week has been we are so blessed in every way.  For our church, family, friends and my online friends that have been so encouraging.  We both know this is something temporary and that God is definitely in Control!! And I definitely praise Him for that!!

So sorry you and Fred have had such a rough week. When the weather is cold, it just seems to make things seem even worse! I'm glad you were able to get to the doctor and can rest! Hugs
