Blogs are a problem for me... in being regular, that is.
My "board of directors" has an individual on it who says that I need to keep using this, and I say, "I blog on Facebook" and wish I could link what I say there to here... Apparently not that easy to do yet! If anyone knows how to do it easily, please let me know. This is a "past tense" problem as of tonight! Weebly added a new feature! Yay!
So here I am, up at almost 2a on my vacation with my wife (at the Pinery Provoncial Park), writing on my neglected blog! Pure Joy! And no, Jim, not the result of expresso to late in the evening!
This has been a very difficult year since mid-March, health-wise. I came down on a Friday at lunch with a sore throat, cancelled my afternoon appointments and then with good care, the sore throat cleared up in less than the weekend! But, I had a severe fatigue that lingered for 2.5 months after that! My physician was not sure what is was (2 rounds of blood tests later), but his boss had a medical resident who had similar symptoms in mid-March and had to quit! I was at about 40% until June. This meant naps every day, 50% workload and eventual discouragement and ennui over my lack of improvement and the burden of some work that was not getting done for a contract I have. I'm happy to say that by the start of my vacation with my wife, Ivy at the beginning of this week - I was about 90% and had lost the 10 lbs. I had gained and was starting to run again. 20 more lbs. to go!
I am the sole provider for our family, or rather, God provides mainly through my work to sustain our family. It was amazing to see how money came in when I was off sick, only working part-time. I ended up working half the time and making the same amount! God truly is my provider and the provider of my family. Our financial gifts to Him are done with greater joy and faith as a result of walking through this hardship of sickness.
Well the vacation continues, I smile at the lovely surroundings and the time alone with Ivy and go off to bed.
