TGIF!

I am sapped. Drained. Empty. Void.

This week has been difficult, not because of work but a combination of work and not feeling quite up to snuff. It seems as though I can't get over this spring cold. I am back to the head sloshing, feverish chills, viewing myself from out of body! Yuk!

I did the trek to the metroplex early yesterday morning. I was back and had my eight hours in by noon. Of course that didn't necessarily mean I was done for the day. Upside today is if I cash in on my comp time it could be a short day! We will see.

Sunday begins daylight savings time. Not necessarily one of my favorite things. Having grown up on the farm it made it seem like really really long days. Who wanted to go out on a date after dark? What remained open after dark? DST fits city living much better than rural areas. Eight to fivers love it! DST almost single handedly killed the drive in movie industry! The best thing about DST is when it is over we get that hour back!

I am reading a book, one of the "chicken soup for the ..." series. I didn't realize there were so many variations of chicken soup. This book is filled with individuals stories of acts of kindness, triumph, and tragedy. While it is not my standard read, it has been good. Many times it seems like you get a small tidbit that makes a lasting impression. My favorite in this book so far has been this, "Never try to put a question mark where GOD has put a period".

FATHER I thank YOU for getting me to this point in the week. I ask for YOUR continued help to finish it out. I ask for relief from my cold, relief for Krl's back and her other ailments. I continue to pray for healing for Hag, B., Lillie, Carol, Michelle, Aimee, Jennifer, Ashlyn Kate, Tj, Anna, Jess, and those injured in the accident. I pray for comfort for those who are grieving. I pray for those of us who are at crossroads in our spiritual journey. I pray for our spiritual family and our leaders. YOU are my rock!
