Snow Makes my Day

God's Winter Wonderland

As most of you know, I love, love, love snow!  The beauty of the huge flakes are indescribable!  After having a dreary day of rain and melting snow yesterday, we are enjoying a gorgeous white blanket of snow once again.  I'm glad winter it not over yet!  This certainly is a great ending to a very lousy day.

I've been in the house since last Wednesday for Prayermeeting because of sickness.  My idea of getting out was not where I had to go this morning though; to the oral surgeon's office!  I have been dreading this day for a long time as I needed to have a tooth pulled. I had another one pulled a few months ago, and realized that the "local" they give me causes my heart to feel like it is pounding out of my chest.  So, I was really dreading that same experience again.  Yes, it felt the same again and they had to give me oxygen for a while to help me.  Anyway, everything went well after that and I came home so relieved that it was all over until .....  

I suddenly started feeling sick to my stomach and decided I better drink or eat something before I get sick.  I poured myself some soda pop and grabbed a container of pudding and sat down to eat.  I took a couple sips of soda and the next thing I know my vision was going, I was sweating profusely, and felt like I was going to pass out.  I yelled for Evangelyn (who was home from work sick) and told her what was going on.  She came in with me, but thankfully after a few minutes I felt better.  I'm not exactly sure of the cause of that horrible experience but I think my sugar must have been very low.  I have not been eating the greatest since I've been sick, and then having not eaten since midnight last night must have caused it.  It sure was scary!

So, now you know why I'm especially enjoying the beauty of God's winter wonderland this evening!  Thank you, Jesus!
