sick in bed…

and i am blessed.

i was too weak to drive this morning so teddy (former roommate’s fiancee) brought me fabulous soup (from one of my favorite soup places which was a surprised, because i asked for some canned soup) and some of my favorite gatorade since i didn’t have any “sick food” in the house and my current roommate’s gone for ten days enjoying her well-deserved vacation so she couldn’t pick anything up for me.

i feel like there are times i choose to learn interdependence and there are other times i am simply forced to learn it or at least be reminded of it in a very “in your face” kind of way. ;) paul simon’s “i am a rock, i am an island” doesn’t bode too true for this gal…even though there are times she might wish she was only because it’s humbling to be dependent upon others and being humbled is not something i especially enjoy or embrace naturally.

thankful for friends who pray for me and make me laugh and bring over soup and juice and remind me that indeed, i am richly blessed.
