HITTING THE WALL

My nephew had come down from Midland to apply for an Internship with YFC. He got the job as our "technology" Intern starting next September when he returns from spending the summer as a missionary in Russia. I wanted to treat him to a meal out before he headed home We headed to Red Robin, one of my favorite restaurants. Having been trapped at home for most of the last month is was a nice treat.

The plan. Eat. Bryson would go North from there and I would drive myself home, just 17 miles west. We had enjoyed out onion ring apppetizer (yes a slight diversion from my diet but rationalizing I did eat fish for my entre) and I had just finished a piece of fish, "I think we are in trouble" was close to the last inteligible words I got out before the wave of fatigue hit me like a brick wall. I was instantly nausious (Lord, please help me not throw up at the table). My head was spinning (Lord, please help me not to pass out).

The solution, Parents to the rescue. Bryce called and my mom and dad scurried over to drive me and my car home. (Thank You, I love you dearly!)

I knew I had over done (by several hours) but I was so enjoying the time with Bryson.

I didn't get off the couch the rest of the night.

So this morning I have fatigue head. I will have to take it slow...but that is life...at least my life.

Lord, Thank you for the time that Bryson and I could spend together. Thank you for his gifts and abilities that match up so perfectly with a big need in our minstry. Thank you for parents who are willing to drop everything to rescue their half uncoscious daughter. Thank you that you still use me even in this condition. Thank you for the internet that allows me to continue working from home. And thank you for my "favorite" mother in law who just arrived to help out today. Love Patti
