April 13
6:00a- so many nightmares why do they trouble me so they make no sense. What is my brain trying to process?
Whole body aches. Muscles twitching throughout body. Low back and tailbone throbbing as if I fell hard but I didn’t.
7:38a- headache. Left hand itches especially knuckles
9:00a- on our way to pick up my Grandma in North Alabama. She’ll be staying here for two weeks.
10:30a- thought it’d be good idea to bring laptop to work on bulletin for tomorrow. Not! Sun too bright can’t see screen too good. Ugh!
2:45p- minor car trouble delayed us. Met Uncle and Aunt at Shakey’s Pizza. Now heading back home with Grandma and all her luggage. I have headache. Buttocks and back really hurts. Gonna be interesting next couple weeks as Grandma is almost completely deaf no hearing aids cannot lip read and doesn’t know sign language. She’s suppose to shew me how to quilt. Guess I’ll return favor and teach basic sign. Sad when no way communication to make. Actually have dry erase board to write conversation out
7:15p- made it home safely. Mom made dinner. Face feels flushing. I’m wore out.
10:15p- I’m utterly exhausted and hurting all over. Migraine. Taking rx. Nose stuffy but runny. Bulletin done. Low back and rt hip throbbing. Rt ear hurts. Fingers ache. Strong winds. Notice that under tornado watch. Lord, keep us safe in the midst of storm. Indigestion. Chewed 5 Papayas.
April 14
4:00a- phone call. I’m so tired and hurting. Bad dreams. Bad storm last night.
7:00a- I don’t want to get up. Every inch of hurts. Sore throat.
The marketplace is empty No more traffic in the streets All the builders’ tools are silent No more time to harvest wheat Busy housewives cease their labors In the courtroom no debate Work on earth is all suspended As the King comes thro’ the gate
O the King is coming The King is coming I just heard the trumpets sounding And now His face I see O the King is coming The King is coming Praise God, He’s coming for me
8:00a- Told Joe with tears streaming down face today would be one of those days that I’m tempted to fake it bc I feel aweful. Ate too much bread yday and thrush is hurting throat again.
8:30a- It was a feat but able to get ready on time. I’m looking forward to church. I need it today.
9:15a- hunny having technical issues trying to print sermon outline. Had to download driver.
10:00a- power flickered
1:34a- two visitors today though attendance down due to a family being out of town. Trouble playing piano. Feel like I’m in a daze. Enjoyed service though stressed (technical issues) and in much pain. Just want to sleep it off. Took Chuck to lunch. Keep thinking I may be in much pain but I’m blessed and others don’t have it so well.
2:00p- need to crash a while so much pain. Need to go back to Dr’s about thrush. It’s flaring again too.
4:00p- Joe trying not to scare me to wake me did anyways. Still hurting, but not as bad.
10:50p- feet feel numb and tingly, hands swollen and achy, finger tips tingly, pain throughout body, low back & rt hip throbbing, headache has eased down from migraine, arms ache, rt ear hurts, tongue & throat hurt, etc. Today’s pain makes me wish I had something stronger than Naproxen.
I AM GOING TO A CITY WHERE THE STREETS WITH GOLD ARE LAID WHERE THE TREE OF LIFE IS BLOOMING AND THE ROSES NEVER FADE.
HERE THEY BLOOM BUT FOR A SEASON SOON THEIR BEAUTY IS DECAYED I AM GOING TO A CITY WHERE THE ROSES NEVER FADE
