I have been feeling slightly under par the last couple of days. This morning when I woke up, I felt better, but still had ‘fake it til you make it’ going round in my head. That phrase has served me well. You can also say ‘behave your way to happiness.’ I learned the art of doing this while on the radio. I refused to say I was wearing a mask. I was behaving myself to success. I would fake it til I made it. And every time I did. I would go into the studio feeling less than happy and I would come out feeling a whole lot better. We are frail in our humanness. Made up of so many facets, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual – it’s difficult to get all of them perfectly in sync all the time. If it depends on me, it will not work, but God is able and He indwells me in a way that is hard to understand. More about that on Monday!
Today they engineer came and his presence brings with it…
#356 of my 1000 thanks….the engineer came to look at the crack on the wall that I posted the other day – he is the site engineer for the road works that are going on behind us. He took a photo. The trucks and compactors were at work while he was here, so he felt the vibrations going through the building! We were so happy about that! He said that they were getting a vibration measuring device so he could assess how serious it is and he said he will also be speaking to the company’s insurer.
For the generations not yet born, the other thing that happened today is that I went to the doctor for a check up. The palpitations I’ve been having at night are not better, so it was time to have them checked out. He did an ECG which did show up an anomaly relating to possibly a sympathetic nervous system thing that is worsened by caffeine. While I have cut back on coffee, a few days ago I was lured into have three cups! He’s given me a beta blocker to try if cutting coffee doesn’t work. I took half this evening, hoping for a better night sleep than I have been having and I already am feeling everything is not fluttering so enthusiastically in my chest! We’ll see how that works out.
Last night there was a fabulous sunset…the bird enjoyed it as much as I…
Psalm 19:1
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
Amen!
These are the days!
Keep the smile going!
These are the days!
In His Grip,
