Sorry...Again!!

I have been meaning to blog for a few days now, but look, almost 3 days are gone since my last posting. I am not doing so good on the blogging thing lately.
Maggie has been taking up all my time today. She is not quite herself today and is getting into everything. Aidan is home sick today, as he was on Monday. It is just a cold. I will watch to make sure it does not get worse. Supposedly there is a 10% absenteeism at most Calgary schools right now. H1N1 has hospitalized some 200 people in our region. People are being extra cautious right now. I always just keep a sick kid home!!

Line-ups to get the vaccine are 3+hours long. I was thinking about getting my kids and I one, but I am not going to make them stand in line for that long. Temper-tantrums would ensue. Perhaps in a week or so when everyone is less anxious.

Other than that, life marches on. Seems like I am doing a steady run most days...On a treadmill...With no emergency stop button. (Sigh!) Why do I do this again? Sometimes I need reminders....



Built from clay and breath of God
This is who you are
Made to house eternal love
This is who you are
Matter and spirit combined
This is who you are
Temple for the Lord Most High
This is who you are

Echo of creation’s song
This is who you are
Remnant of the Chosen Ones
This is who you are
Ember of a holy fire
This is who you are
Object of the King’s desire
This is who you are

Who you are, who you are
Who you are, who you are
Heaven sings this song to you…
This is who you are

Little lamb who wanders off
This is who you are
One the Shepherd won’t leave lost
This is who you are
Rescued by His sacrifice
This is who you are
Now the hands and feet of Christ
This is who you are

Who you are, who you are…

Hear the Father call your name
Shine with His eternal flame
Bear His image in your soul
This is who you are
Listen ‘til you finally know
This is who you are

I am learning to accept that some days I will accomplish a lot and somedays nothing at all - or so it seems. Today was a pretty good day. I got the covering letter done for the Secret Encouragers (the programme is a bit different this year) and finished my devotion for Sunday. I have another devotion to write for Wednesday but I don't think it will be too difficult because I almost have it planned in my head and that's the hard part!

Hope tomorrow is a less hectic day for you and I hope you all stay well.
The H1N1 is making the rounds in my area now as well--every day my husband has around six kids out sick from the classroom, and very sadly--a 12 year old otherwise healthy girl succumbed to the H1N1 virus in our state, last week. I can't get this out of my mind and keep thinking about her parents...

Tina - we have had two deaths of young teens here in S. Ontario - one male and one female. That's probably why the line-ups at the vaccine clinics are often very long and the wait exceeds 3 hours.

I am sorry to hear about those kids in Ontario, too, Sandra.

No worries...I seem to be late always these days. We are doing the best we can, aren't we. Yes. So no worries!
Hope Aidan will recover soon again!
I would not go and line up for so long either. Not even without children. They say the vaccines do have a certain risk as well. There are several cases in Sweden of people who died due to the vaccination! So I just don't know. What should we do!
And they also said that the amount of people dying is still under the amount of the regular flu each year...
But I *am* getting scared with all the stories you hear now as well!
So I'm thinking and thinking!
