Suck it Up
Kathy was sick first and she went on a bit of a rant about how miserable she felt.
I minimized it.
“It’s just a cold.”
Well, the shoe has been on the other foot since Monday.
The thing is, I had a brutal week scheduled.
A trip to North Carolina - I left a Sunday and was to return around 10;30 p.m. on Monday.
The airlines apologized profusely when they didn’t get me home until about 1 in the morning.
So, Tuesday morning came fast and I was sick!
“It’s just a cold.”
Well, that came back to haunt me!
Thing is, I had 3 straight days of training scheduled. At least 5 hours each day, talking in front of a room filled with people.
That’s a battle!
I broke it down and did a whole bunch of pep talks with myself.
“Just a few hours!”
I remember once asking a nun about what the purpose of being sick was all about.
“It’s so you appreciate what it means to feel good.”
I appreciated it when Kathy was sick!
I didn’t need to get sick to feel it.
Ah well…
…just a few more things to get through.
I’ll appreciate it!
I swear.
Hope I appreciate it today!
And baseball is back!!!
I appreciate that too!
