One month of this crud; flu like symptoms, sinus, more joint pain, no sleep, lots of coughing... Lin has missed a lot of work too.

I drug myself out of bed
I pushed myself away from the table
I lifted my heavy frame out to the gate I am working on
I dug in the garden
I pulled myself over to the neighbors for a chat across the fence
I turned myself away from depression to a satisfactory acceptance of what is....

I walked a lap around Wal-Mart; waiting for drugs

I keep the New Covenant,
when I fail....I am pulled
back into place by HIM.
