I'm ALMOST over it!

Like the title says...I'm ALMOST over this stuff. The fever lasted for 4 to 5 days, and when the fever ended the chills and body-aches went with it. So now all I have is this pesky cough and nasal congestion...and let me tell you, Robitussin is awful, awful stuff!!!! LOL

News over the past few days has been...well...news!! We found a house that we will be moving to at the end of March. It is nice, but because we will be renting for the first year and because of us going into missions we had to get rid of our precious puppies! I am fine, I loved my dog...but I knew that it had to happen and I have been preparing myself to get rid of them. My mom took it a little bit harder than I did...but she is better now. Who knew you could get so attached to an animal, but it happens.

Daddy has come down with the flu now...so has my brother...Momma is showing signs of getting it...and Michelle is still in the clear!! PRAY FOR EVERYONE! I told my mom yesterday that by the time this thing completely runs it's course, everyone in the state of Georgia is going to have had it. Oh yeah....my Uncle has it too!

I hope everyone out there stays well....wash your hands OFTEN!!!!

Flu Update

I am feeling better at the moment, but my temperature will not go below 100. That is with taking the Tylenol every 4 hours. Last night my mom was contemplating taking me the to hospital, but I have no insurance...so we want to hold off on that for as long as we can. We did read up on the flu that is going around this year, and this can last up to ten days!!! Please pray that that is not the case...I can't take ten days of this!

I will now stop all my complaining and update you on the rest of the family. :o|

Michelle was doing better, but she has a nasty cough that just will not go away. Momma was up with me last night checking on me and giving me my medicine, so pray that she will not get this stuff from handling everything I touch. Daddy is well...I think he is not feeling well, but he is one of those people who don't tell anyone and pretends that nothing is wrong. So just pray for him as well.

And the verdict is....

I have the FLU!!!

I ended up coughing really bad last night and I had no idea why I was...after all...I just got over being sick for the 4th time! But at any rate, last night at about 11:30 I told my Mom that I was chilled and that I felt achy. So I went to bed...coughed all night and chilled all night. I just took my temperature and I have a fever of 100.6, and my head feels like someone is banging it on the wall. Plus I think I am starting to get an ear infection in both of my ears. So sick time number 5...here I am!! :o(

Michelle ended up in the emergency room yesterday morning...she could not breathe and she was choking. Come to find out after 5 hours in the ER and 4 bags of fluid later...she has the starting of pneumonia!! So we are all a little sick I guess you could say. Thankfully Michelle is doing much better today!

So if you have...

-Fever
-Chills
-Body Aches
-Headache
-Nasal Congestion
-Tiredness
-Dry Cough

You have the flu!
The flu is taking over America right now. The only state that has not been hit with it is Florida, but everywhere else it is reported to be widespread! So take the precautions...I didn't!

So if you all would please pray for me and Michelle to get better, and pray that no one else in the family get sick, that would be a great blessing!!! And I will pray that none of y'all come down with this wicked stuff!!

Think about it...and pray for them!

We had a pretty busy day yesterday. We had to take my sister to have some more tests done so we could find out why she is getting the migraines. After we were done at the hospital we met Daddy for lunch at Stevie B's Pizza. When we got out of the car there was a boy about 8 or 9 years old with what looked to be his mother. I was totally shocked at the words that came out of his mouth. He had just cursed right in front of his mother, and she had done nothing about it!! I was SO shocked by this.

"The parents of today are losing their knack for being a "good" parent." were the words running in my head. It was so sad to see. I have to say, that was on my mind all day yesterday. How could that Mother just stand there and say nothing was beyond me, but then it dawned on me that not all people have the raising that I have. not everyone has the Christian home and foundation that I was blessed to be born into. I had to remember not to judge that person, and to instead pray for them! Because I do not know what shape that family is in, or what may be going on. Now I am not excusing it, but I am remembering to just PRAY for them.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Pray for pretty much everyone in my family...we have all had this cold-ish junk that is going around. I have had it three times, but this time I got a bad cough with it. Michelle now has it...and she has coughed so much that she has no voice now!! Momma's ear and throat are hurting her...so we are all falling apart. Pray for us! :D

Have a good day everyone!

HAPPY PRESIDENTS DAY!

Happy Belated Valentines Day...and Friday's Who Said What.

HAPPY "BELATED" VALENTINES DAY!!

I'm sorry I have not posted in a week, once again...it has been busy! I finally got to go to another piano lesson last night, this one was my first one in 2 months. Hopefully I will be able to go every week for a while. I guess you could say that I am progressing fine. That is what she says anyway, but you know teachers...they tell you that even if you totally flunk out that week....LOL


This valentines day we need to remember the greatest love story that was ever told, and that is how Jesus Christ loved us so much that He died for us. So our sins could be forgiven, and so we could one day join Him in Heaven. I accepted that blessed forgiveness almost 14 years ago!! Even though I am a day late, don't forget to thank God and tell Him how much you love Him!!!

THIS WEEKS "WHO SAID WHAT"

"Now here at the Rock we have two rules. Memorize them until you can say them in your sleep. Rule number one: obey all rules. Rule number two: no writing on the walls."

Who said it???

Oops...I skipped it again!

I totally skipped yesterday's "Who Said What", I got so busy thinking about other things that I totally forgot!! SORRY!

Last night my Mom and I went to a Pampered Chef party, and I enjoyed it so much...not to mention the good food. Yummy! After talking to my friend that was the consultant for that party, I am considering becoming a consultant myself. It would be something that I could do in the home.

My sister and I went and got our ears pierced yesterday...Michelle almost passed out from it, but she quickly recovered from it! :o) I have been told that they would throb and hurt real bad afterward, but I have had no pain from it what so ever...and for that I am thankful!!

Today we are going to get our family picture taken for the prayer cards, look at a house, and possibly go to a birthday party tonight. So...I will hopefully post again on Monday.

Have a WONDERFUL, AWESOME, and UNBELIEVABLE Saturday!!!!!!

Wow..what a week...and it's not over yet!!!

I have had one of the busiest weeks in my life this past week...and as I said in my title, it's not over yet. I guess I could give you a rundown on what has happened this past week...so here it goes!

Monday was a day that we did get to relax a bit and get over Saturday's business of the wedding. But come Tuesday, things got rather difficult. It's been my sister Michelle, my mom has explained it somewhat...so if you go there you will be able to read what has been going on there.

Last night we went to a singing at Harvest Baptist (that is where we will be going when we go into missions) to hear the Inspirations! It was so fun! I thoroughly enjoyed it! Bro. Arthur of course got so excited that he got the microphone and started to preach somewhat!!

Tonight we have my cousin's birthday party to go to at Chuck. E. Cheese...that is going to be FUN!! :o)

And finally tomorrow we have Ronnie's birthday get-together, his birthday is tomorrow...my big brother is going to be 22!!! WOW!

So...that is what has been going on for me. I will not be doing the Friday's Who Said What because I have not had the time to look for one. So I will do it next week. Hope everyone had a good week!!!
