A rough week

It has been one of those weeks. I started feeling a little down on Sunday and I took what ended up being a 3-hour nap. I had a feeling that the next few days were going to be rough and I was right. I woke up at 2:45am on Monday morning coughing and barley able to breath. Yes the nasty sinus infection returned once again to grace my doorsteps.
I normally am able to be what I consider “functional” within about 24 hours. But this one wanted to stay a little while longer. So I called and got into my doctor on Tuesday morning to confirm that I had another bout with the sinus issues. She called me in a prescription for an antibiotic. Today (Thursday) I am feeling sooooo much better. Today at work I started jogging down memory lane again. I find that I am doing this more and more lately. But as I was going down that old familiar road I knew that God was showing me so many blessings that I have received along my travels. All of the great friends I made along the way. The many memories that I will get to cherish forever. I realized that I am blessed in so many ways and this temporary inconvenience of a sinus infection is nothing compared to the pain and sorrows that so many people are feeling today. The young children who went to bed hungry last night, or the person who may have just got that call that a loved one had passed away. How can my pains compare to what they are going through. Then I looked out of my office window and just thought how nice it was to see such a beautiful skyline and to be alive. God’s blessings just keep coming. Even in the cold and sinus season J

Blessings till I post again.
