Ok, so today thus far has been pretty awful. Jason and I are both very sick (we think with strep throat ) and are on antibiotics, but because my co-worker is sick too I had to come in and work both yesterday and today. (whine, whine - I know, right?) Today, my throat hurts so badly and is so swollen that I can barely get any sound out and a major part of my job is fielding quotes and orders on the phone. Makes for a painful, exhausting day... Mom and Dad came in for a while, then went to pick up some soup for us to have for lunch , which was sweet and a huge help. While they were out, they apparently stopped by Tractor Supply because when they came back into the office they had a whole cardboard "house" full of baby Bantam chickies! to take back to the farm: the cutest little things ever to wear feathers! They moved them into a big cardboard box near my desk and put a heat lamp over them and I am listening to them cheep and chirp as I try to work and it amazes me that such a little thing can turn the world right again and make my heart lift, no matter how badly I feel. Did you ever just look up at God and say, "You did a great job," in the middle of the day? I did, today.
