Pansy and Peony: A small prayer request....

I came down with the flu yesterday. I don't think it's that dangerous kind; it's just one of those viruses that cause discomfort way out of proportion to their real severity ("I'm not that sick, why do I feel so awful?")

so here it is, the last few days before Christmas, and I can hardly get my head off the couch. If I don't get better before Tuesday evening we may have to postpone the Christmas dinner we have planned with friends.

UPDATE, TUESDAY MORNING: wow, we have powerful intercessors here! Between prayers, rest, and ibuprofen, I was revived enough by noon to do some baking and some (urgently needed) laundry. This morning the fever and body aches are completely gone. I still have a scratchy throat, but I can live with that. I still need to discuss Christmas with our guests -- they may not want to bring their little children around until I've been better longer.

I hope you feel better SOON.

Oh, no! Get to the doctor--my dad got sick on Saturday, the doctor prescribed Zithromax, and he's doing MUCH better today (two days later). He had a fever, cold and sudden, terrible cough.

I hope you remember I predicted this during yesterday's "conversation."
