So today I told you my next segment was “due”
But I can’t think about writing because I have the stomach flu.
I can’t keep a thing down, it’s making me frown,
And I’m achy and beyond exhausted, too.
I’ll write it next week, that next one – Part Eight,
Assuming that by then I will be feeling great.
For if I am not, my stomach will rot,
Then a little longer we might have to wait.
I am not such a narcissist that I believe you are waiting at the edge of your seat to read the next installment of the “Life Story” series but I am a woman that likes to keep her word and I said it would be posted today.
As you can tell, I’m just barely surviving over here. The thought of writing that out at the moment is unfathomable. I must get through this horrid illness and will be good to go for next Thursday. At least I better be…
Please pray that this illness would be lifted from our home, friends. Sawyer has now had it twice and I’ve had it now for three days. It is quite persistent. Solomon and Susannah had it last week so my prayer is that they don’t get it again as well.
Lysol is my best friend at the moment.
In Him,
N
Wow, even the stomach bug cannot squeltch your creativity! Hope you’re feeling better soon!

Sweet friend. I wish I could do something. We are all praying over here. Sadie’s praying that “Susannah’s mommy Natalie would be better very soon”. Love you. The dinner offer is still out there if you need it. xo
Praying for all of you, cousin! Hoping this will pass soon and that everyone will be healthy in no time! Hang in there. I can’t believe you wrote a poem when you feel so yucky….you sure are creative. :) Love you all!
ahhh. yes. Lysol.. we’re besties too.. I am SOO sorry to hear that it has made its way to mama! I know we dont’ *know* each other.. but we are in the same town.. so let me know if there is anything you need.. soup? take the kids on a walk? I know how tough it is to continue doing mommy things while feeling so ill yourself.
ps. that woman in the image should be shot for a. looking so amazing while having her head in the jon and b. for having such a pristine bowl. seriously.. who does that?!!!
sending healing vibes and prayers your way!

Feel better, soon!
.-= Jen´s last blog ..Fall Mantle =-.
I will pray — I’ve been there before! Lord, I ask that you would eradicate all germs from Natalie’s house, that you would protect those who are not sick, and quickly heal those who are. I pray for an amazing night of sleep and restoration. Thank you for an amazing woman! Amen!

Relax, get better, and take care of you! Here’s hoping you and your family can fight it off!

Sending love to you and yours. And … Amen! to Jen’s prayer.
[And bless you, Jen, for praying “in the moment”!]
ugh…..so sorry to hear that it’s still invading your house. that nasty bug is hitting in our area too. so far, it hasn’t made it into my home…but i feel it’s probably a matter of time. prayers for you and that sweet family of yours.

Very creative. I loved your reference to Lysol being your best friend right now.
Your husband told me about your blog when I visited his practice this week for a cleaning. Very nice man. I am glad to know that there are fellow active Lafayette area bloggers. Mine is http://www.bloglafayette.com. I look forward to sharing your site with my wife, Leah.
I hope you get better soon.
