Oh no - chills

So, it's about 29 degrees where Ben and Cristi are, and it's about 92 degrees where Hans and Iris are.  Couldn't we all share some of those degrees and "make nice?"

Busy but good day at work.  

I am a little anxious, because I have much to do; and my throat is scratchy and my left ear hurts and I have the chills and I feel warm and I am weak and I had better gulp some Airborne. Bummer.  But my heart is resting in Jesus.  Where else would I go but empty (to quote poet friend, Gretchen Sousa).

I caught up on e-mails when I got home, and also a little on Facebook.  Interesting post about grabbing the book nearest you, turning to page 56 (I think that's the page it was), and typing the 5th sentence.  Here's mine:

"When once you allow physical selfishness, mental slovenliness, moral obtuseness, spiritual density, everyone belonging to your crowd will suffer."
 ~ Oswald Chambers in MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST

I am not an island.  What I do affects many others.  I had better remember this.

This afternoon Dave was so kind and patient with a friend on the phone.  Best of all, he is genuine.  I am so small.  But I want to get taller.  ;-)  If truth is not adorned with love, it will only poke the hearer.

The bed calls me.
