Feb 13

0630 rough night…not much sleep. Headache. Whole body aches. Tired.

0720 read Isaiah 23-28

Isaiah 26:3-4 – Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,  whose mind is stayed on thee:  because he trusteth in thee.   Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength: 

0800a ugh! I finally remembered to show Joe the backwards c on my neck lft side. He asked if it itched. No. Periodically I have sharp stabbing pain in neck. Joe suggested I put iodine on it and bandaid. Thought it was stinging a little when I applied but thought nothing of it. I had allergic reaction to bandaid and c looks no different. Nice.

1230 putting dinner in crockpot. Using new recipe. Beef and potatos au gratin.

0100 lower back is throbbing almost to tears. Need to rest a while.

0315 Jordon wants to stop at store on way to church. Works for me. I need a t-shirt. Making Joe’s present for Valentine’s if I don’t flub it up. Lord, I want it to be special for him.

0330 friend called to check on me to see how I was doing. She has health issues herself…actually dealing with cancer. Lord, please lay Your healing hand on her. Makes me feel loved when a friend calls to check on me. I know I need to do better but that’s partly why I try to check in on so many bc I know how it makes me feel though at times I really don’t know what to say about how I’m doing.

0400 purchased item and walked away. Got to door greeter and realized I forgot my purchase. Sweet door greeter heard me ask Rae to go retrieve it for me. She kindly asked why I’m always forgetting something. Had to blessed opportunity to share that I was struck by lightning 2 yrs ago. She replied, “Bless your soul. God has something special in store for you.” I thanked her and agreed that He certainly does.

Walking out to car told Rae that I must have made an impression on her for her to remember me but I didn’t think I forgot that much. Lol.

0430 stomach hurts not nauceous but just hurts.

0629 I’m plumb wore out.

1130 headache. Low back throbbing. Stinging needle pain in shoulders and upper back. Feet hurt with tingling sensation. Hands ache. Center of chest hurts. Wore out feeling. Prickly needle pain in legs.

Why is the phrase pins and needles? Aren’t they the same?
