I’m really bummed. This morning is the first church service with our new rector, and I’m here at home with laryngitis. So much for singing in the choir for the next few weeks too. Once I get over this I usually can’t sing for 3 weeks. I’m drinking tea and taking vitamins and gargling, and praying, that I will have enough voice by tomorrow to go to work.
I was SO hoping that this wouldn’t happen this fall. It’s happened every fall for 10 years now. I believed this year would be different because I’m healthier and my immune system is stronger than it has been in some years. I am grateful though. I’ve only had a mild cold and I’m not getting bronchitis. Yes, I am grateful!
So there’s nothing to do but accept the situation and make the best of it. Fighting it will only add to my stress and thus prolong the ailment. I’ll do another load of laundry to hang on my line. I’ll sleep some more. I’ll drink tea and sit in the sun and spend time with God in my own way. I’ll pray for my church and our new rector and for my own healing and have faith.
Awww … get well soon!

Laundry, sleep, tea, and prayer – that doesn’t sound like too bad a day to me. Of course, I am someone who actually likes doing the laundry, so that helps. I hope and pray that you are back to full health soon. And back in the fellowship of the saints. Grace and peace be yours – Gail
