Life is good. I am out of school for the summer. I'm working 25 hours a week at Converse. I am loved by an amazing Godly man, and a wonderful family, and awesome friends.
I've been sick this weekend. I got it from Daniel, Grace's 2 year old. I should have known better than to share my food with him and let him drink out of my water bottle, but he just looked so miserable and pitiful that I wanted to take care of him! That was Monday. Grace came over to help us plant a few rows of green beans. Daniel was feverish so we took turns coddling him while the others worked the garden. Saturday morning I started getting a sore throat and headache and then it just got worse with aches and chills and nausea. I could barely move, I felt so weak. No wonder Daniel looked so miserable.

Monday I planted green beans with Grace. Tuesday and Wednesday I hired my young neighbor, Soline, to help me de-vine the front bushes and haul brush. Friday, Pam and I went to an Indian market, where I bought some Indian music videos. Those videos were the perfect thing to watch while I was sick, trying to stomach a little chicken soup and jello. Romance, dancing, costumes, and Shahruhk Khan helped me forget my misery. Saturday, before I started feeling really miserable, I got to study the Bible and pray with Kinsey at Chic-fil-A. She invited me to a cookout yesterday, but unfortunately I was too weak to go. Didn't even make it to church. Missed the church's Memorial Day cookout today as well.
