- I'm trying to come to grips that I'm an exceptionally flawed person and to not take it complacently. What I mean is, I acknowledge this sobering fact and try to change it (if I can) or accept the Grace of God (this is most of the time, because I am flawed), but not beat myself up or wrongly believe that my flaws are unforgivable (not for a moment do I believe so, but sometimes the El Horned One likes to whisper terrible nothings into my ears).
- I better embrace the fact that I can't do everything I set out to do today, because I am sick. I have an intestinal virus (and I get these easily, I think). I'm slightly feverish, so I know I'm ill. However, I sure found time to procrastinate the other day and NOT do anything but read and the bare-minimum. Folks, if you sew procrastination, you'll reap it 100 fold. I kid you not. (Mary, Un-doer of Knots, please un-knot my knots! I mean, my 'nots'. Amen.)
- So, sick or no, I am slowly doing my to-do list, because . . . my mind won't shut off no matter how much I tell it to take a day off. It will say to me in reply, "But you HAD several days off and you didn't do a bloody thing, you clod!"
- I won't be going to the bank today, friends, because it is payday . . . and I wanted to go to the grocery store to get some items (top of the list: Hershey's syrup - for Dan), but that place will also be a terrible horrible no good horror to enter into. I'll keep ringing Dan up at work and ask him to go! (evil cackles)
- We can't go to Fr. Jon's b-day thing tonight, and I'm supposed to bring a dish. How many folks do you think would care if I brought a dish (and made it while sick?). It doesn't matter how many, because I care. I would be very cross if I ate food a sick person made.

Awwwwww, I hope you are feeling better soon....!
Thanks for sharing what's on your noggin. Hope you are feeling better.
What a relief to finally find another exceptionally flawed person! Now I don't feel so lonely. :) Seriously though... there are days when I just wake up and think "He's got to fix me somehow or I'm sunk." This is where saints like the Little Flower and her elevator to God are invaluable. I'm a little tiny dandelion. I've got a lot of problems; like mostly being a problem for others, and sometimes being prickly or scattered to the seven winds; but He made me, He likes me, He even thinks I'm pretty. lol I hope you feel better soon, dear. And no, I wouldn't want your germy food at a party. :)
You must have had a long shower! :-)
Hope you are feeling better today. I, too, feel like I have a "sensitive system." I'm glad you didn't go to the potluck. I hate potlucks for just that reason!
Lol! And to think I simply sing in the shower when I could be working out my life issues ;)Of course, I have to sing to drown out "El Horned One's terrible nothings" lately...
I hope you feel better, Sarah.
love your new background! :) Love your shower stall thoughts. Now that the light in there is fixed you must be truly illuminated! :) Ah, heck, girlfriend, don't be getting all down on yourself! It's Advent! I hope that you feel better soon. I hate the tummy illness. It does have a way of ruining the day. But, it also goes away. The food, well, yeah..I wouldn't do that either. Of course where I'm at, we get ashtray soup. So..long story. Anyhow, buck up girlie girl! I love ya!
