The week is going fast... somewhat....

 It hasn't been an overly busy week thus far, but it has been busy at times - mainly with my having to create meetings - and even worse, work on a 20+ group of people and try to schedule it when most can attend.  I did get it scheduled - only for one of the doctors that is critical email back and say he is off that day.  UGH.  So I sent an email to two people I can't see their calendars and had responded tentative to review a couple other dates - and I am still waiting to hear back from them so that I can move this meeting.  Otherwise I may just move it anyway.

It's been an interesting start of the year - in some ways.  Hubby has been sick with what we are hoping was a cold.  He did go to the urgent care last night to be tested for COVID as I have heard this latest virus comes in the form of a cold.  Just to be sure.  And, I've kept him home from two of his men's bible studies just in case as well.  He ran a fever Monday evening that was over 100, which is another reason we wanted him tested.  Is this just a cold or something else.  He wasn't coughing as much yesterday and didn't sound near as congested.  Thank you Musinex and Olive Leaf Extract and Black Elderberry Syrup!  The doctor checked his lungs last night and said they were clear - which is a good sign too.  We'll find out in a couple days about the test, but am pretty confident it was just a cold.  He is rarely coughing this morning and I only heard him once when he woke up.  I got out yesterday to pick up a couple prescriptions for him at the drugstore he had called in, but other than that, we haven't been anywhere, which is odd  But that is ok too.  He's actually feeling well enough now he was talking about mopping the kitchen floor... BUT... we didn't have anything to put in the mop he said.  So I ordered some to be sure he could 'get it done'.  I thought that was nice of me. :-)

I've managed to get a couple notes written off and put in the mail this morning.  I've gotten so bad about sending notes, although I wish I did do it more often.  Maybe that could be a goal for this year?   So what goals have you made?

I reminded a friend who is going through chemotherapy that she is never alone, that God is always with her.  I love Jeremiah 17:14 for that reason.  "Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed.  Save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise."  I have hung on to that verse many times this past year, especially when I was fearful about my own health issues.  It's hard to get older and some things are just out of your control.  I need to get back into my exercises (and I'm working on that) but other than that, all I can do is watch my diet.  We are eating better, which is a good thing.  

Not much to share today as all I've been able to do this week is work... haven't much gone anywhere (other than the drugstore) and haven't seen anyone either.  It's been quiet on our homefront.  We haven't even watched movies!  We've gone to bed early - me in a separate bedroom just in case - and I've slept good until last night - about 1AM I work up and could not go back to sleep - until it was time to get up this morning - and I stayed in bed until 4:45AM!  And that was ok.  I need to MOVE so that I will feel more like MOVING.  Truth.  Rather than sit in a chair all day, if I get up and take a short walk, I feel more energized and more focused on doing things.  I have to - otherwise I'm going to start screaming claustrophic here!  

Hope your week is going well.

Blessings!
