Sunday at home

I started getting sick on Friday, so I went home at lunch time & spent the rest of the day on the couch. I felt tons better on Saturday, but still took it easy, until about 5:30 when we went over to some friends' house for supper, a movie & some Wii games. I still felt ok the whole time. I woke up this morning feeling sick again & my stomach soon showed me that I would not be going to church. Nathan gets headaches pretty frequently, including migraines now & then, & he'd had one since Thursday evening. The bright lights at church make the headaches worse, so he didn't much feel like going this morning either. But, he's opening the class in Sunday school this month, so he needed to be there regardless. So he went without me & I stayed here reading a little more of "Don't Waste Your Life" by John Piper. Nathan came back home after SS & we watched Dr. Charles Stanley. We have spent the rest of the day taking it easy, reading (me) & surfing the web (him). A couple of hours ago, I was getting very antsy, since I hadn't left the house all day, & I was starting to get a little irritable about the whole situation (being sick & stuck inside all day). Then I realized that, even though neither of us felt well, we still got to spend the whole day together, uninterrupted by anyone or anything else. Now that I am looking at it from that perspective, I'm suddenly very sorry to see the day coming to a close! I'm so thankful for my husband!
