We are approaching the year anniversary to my interview in Saint Louis that eventually led to my move and my new call. That’s the good news. The not so good news is that the weather in St. Louis was quite different than Oklahoma at that point. I got sick and stayed sick until at least the end of April. No really. If you find my sermons for AAPC I think you will hear me hacking away as I try to preach.
Well the weather has taken a turn. In general I like this. I get to wear my Angel jacket (if you don’t know you don’t want to) and start playing more U2 on my computer. But I’m sick again. Headache. Everywhereelseache. Congestion. Cough. Sore throat. Drowsiness. Yuck.
I’m really hoping this ends this week rather than next April.
We have a physican in our church who is viewed by many as the best in the city. I love his advise for these sorts of maladies: Lots of hot tea with lemon & honey, zinc, and plenty of rest. Sorry, no silver bullet.
Mark,
The year we moved to Moscow, I came down with pneumonia that Winter. My wife got pneumonia last Winter.
Talk about a change of climate: Florida, Virginia Beach, and California for 20 years; then *wham* Winters in Idaho! 🙂
May the Lord heal you up quickly and give your body the strength to deal with the St. Louis climate.
pax,
Dale
Praying for you, Mark. Thirty years ago, I spent a decade in St. Louis one winter… 😉
Maybe you are allergic to U2. Better check that out.
