Doctor Orders

You know the physicians' pat answer, "stay in bed, take two aspirin and call me in the morning"?  It's the first time in my life that I was truly able to do that.

Every person I know had a head cold and everyone does not follow this order, including the medical staff.  They continue with work and doing other daily activities; the colds linger for two weeks with medication or 14 days without, the head is stuffed and the horrid feelings just don't go away.

This week, since I was able to stay put, it is gone in a few days. I spend most of this week in bed. I did not have to get dressed or go to work or get the family ready for school or work - I was free to follow the doctors' orders.

So today I do the chores around the house, feeling refreshed and well; I might even consider getting out of the PJ and into some clothes.

30th Day of Thanks - thank you God for the healing time that the doctor ordered; time that allowed me to rest and to get over my head cold.

Healed and ready to conquer whatever is next,

Orith
