So Saturday night (Sunday morning, actually) I climbed into bed at around 12:30-12:45 a.m. By 1:30 I was jumping out of bed and running to the bathroom. I thought I was going to throw up! I felt like whatever was in there needed to come out.....from both ends! But, I never could throw up! I even tried gagging myself, but could not throw up. So I sat on the toilet feeling like I was going to die for about an hour or more. Finally started feeling a bit better and decided to take the trash can with me to bed and lay back down. WRONG! As soon as I laid back down, it all came back. Back to the bathroom I run. I did this for a couple of times before, finally at 5:30 I could lay down. I dozed off to sleep for a little while. Tim came into the bedroom after his shower and I told him I was not going to church. I slept off and on most of the day. While he was at church for the evening service, I felt like I wanted some chicken noodle soup. The only thing we had near that was Chicken flavored Ramen noodles. So, that is what I ate. Didn't help my stomach feel better, but at least I could take my PMs to get ready for bed. Tim said he doubted that I would sleep since I had been sleeping all day. I was afraid that would be the case, too.....but I slept pretty well!
This morning I woke with one of those terrible headaches. Took some meds and went back to bed for awhile. Slept for another hour or so before getting up to take a hot shower. That helped to relieve the headache some. I ate a scrambled egg because my stomach was upset. Never did go away, so I ended up taking some Pepto Bismol. I don't care how you flavor the stuff, it is NOT good! Anyway, Tim had to go to a funeral today and I slept most of the time while he was gone. It will be interesting to see if I sleep tonight! I made chicken fajitas for dinner and ate one. That was a mistake and had to take some more Pepto in the early evening.
So, if you have missed me for a couple of days, there ya go! Whatever tummy virus I had is not completely gone, says my stomach! I think I'll go and try to sleep on it! Hopefully it will be all gone tomorrow and I will be back to normal.......whatever that might mean! :D
Nite!
Excerpt: The Pursuit of God, The Human Thirst for the Divine, A.W. Tozer
O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need of further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire. O God, The Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still. Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, that so I may know Thee indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to my soul, "Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away." Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this misty lowland where I have wondered so long. In Jesus' name. Amen
