Sick!

I finally got sick!!  I've been wondering for almost 2 weeks if I was going to get it, then at the beginning of this week I was sure I was getting it, but it never happened.  I finally decided that I just wasn't going to get it that bad, so I made plans.  That was my mistake!  I feel horrible and I hate coughing!!  That's about been my day today.

1.  I am grateful that I felt good enough this morning to go outside and weed 1/6 of my raspberries.  It felt good to be outside and I had visions of the breeze carrying away some of my germs.  I'm also grateful that the weather co-operated.  I'm grateful that it didn't rain/snow like it was predicted to.

2.  I'm grateful that Nathan came in and fed Owen and Zona lunch while I was out weeding so I didn't have to worry about that when I came in. 

3.  I am grateful that Josie was willing to help me weed.  She was quite the good little helper.  I'm also grateful that she made her own lunch when we came in.

4.  I am grateful that Nathan and I were able to pull/push the wire that was cut by the post hole digger so Nathan only had to do one splice instead of two.  It's a great feeling when you're working hard on something and it finally works.  It brought back memories of pulling wire for our remodel.  Frustrating and rewarding.

5.  I am grateful that I was able to take a big, long nap this afternoon when being sick finally caught up to me.  I'm grateful for Nathan.  It was so nice to wake up and have the kids fed, bathed, and happily watching a movie before bed.

6.  One more . . .  I am grateful that Nathan is willing to come in, cuddle up, and watch the last Harry Potter with me.  That's about all the energy I have for tonight.
