Good Medicine...

Hello!

I've been away for the past three days, due to coming down with a yucky stomach virus.  My hubby ended the year with it, and I started the year with it.

Today, I've been trying to get my strength built up but everything I smelled cooking or tasted, just did not do the trick.  Nothing smelled or tasted good...

Until....

My son, Josh, baked brownies this evening.   FINALLY!  Something smelled good and yes, tasted very good.

That just goes to prove, that chocolate is indeed good medicine.  :)


So, my year has started out very very slow... but I think I'm back on track now.  I plan to return to work tomorrow.

I'd like to share a poem I read today.


His Unfailing Presence
---Unknown Author

Another year I enter
Its history unknown;
Oh, how my feet would tremble
To tread its paths alone!
But I have heard a whisper,
I know I shall be blest;
"My presence shall go with thee,
And I will give thee rest."

What will the New Year bring me?
I may not, must not know;
Will it be love and rapture,
Or loneliness and woe?
Hush! Hush! I hear His whisper;
I surely shall be blest;
"My presence shall go with thee, 
And I will give thee rest."
