It’s nice of you to stop by. I’ve had a cold for the last few days, and I’m really tired of sneezing and coughing. I was so prideful that “I haven’t had a cold all season” that it was my time to be humbled and fight the good fight. The sun is shining today, so that at least helps, and the coughing is a bit better.

Aches and pains are such a huge part of my life now that I’m older. I really did NOT appreciate my younger self. That is for sure. Now I am just thankful for the parts of my body that don’t hurt! Trying to eat healthier and move around more has helped a lot.

So, if you’re not feeling quite as good as you would like to feel, ask God to give you the strength to carry on, take your medication as prescribed, and find the joy in the little things.

“They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty— and I will meditate on your wonderful works. ” Psalm 145:5
