sore

A sore throat hit with full force last night around bed time. A restless night ensued, up maybe every other hour. Nothing seemed to ease the pain. I drank a lot of water, because it temporarily eased the dry, scratchy feeling in my throat. But then that just meant I was up even more frequently, running to the bathroom.

Regardless I managed to be up and functional for the rest of our council meetings this morning, then on to a discipleship meting at 2, followed by a bit of Sunday school prep and then a skype meeting at 7.

Now I'm feeling pretty drug out and desperate for bed. I have just a little more to do for Sunday school tonight. I really want tomorrow to be a sabbath, with only rest and church. I do feel a bit weary to realize that I will probably go to both services. Mr. is preaching and if I don't hear him in the morning, I won't get to hear him at all, since I am covering the kiddies' Sunday school in the afternoon service. I would really, really like nothing more than to stay home quietly most of the day, but I want to hear Mr. even more so. It's important to me to support him in that way, even if he says I don't have to.

So an early bed time tonight would be optimal. So I'm calling this done and finishing my Sunday school stuff so that I can go to bed.

Oh, and cuddle with the cat, who is gratifyingly pleased to see me after my 2-day absence. :-)
