Frank Gifford/ Strep Throat/ Toyota

Last night before I went to bed, I heard the news about Frank Gifford's death.  I was so saddened by the news.  Sad because I watch Kathie Lee and Hoda almost every day and feel a part of their lives.  Kathie Lee is controversial, but I have always loved her.  I feel she has a big heart with a strong faith.  I prayed for her before I went to bed and I prayed for her throughout today.  She may be rich and famous and beautiful, but she's still human.  She's hurting and sad, and I pray that Jesus comforts her and all of the children.  And Hoda, such a good friend, is hurting right along side of her, and it touches me deeply to see and feel. 

Do I have strep throat? I think I do but I just started a new job last week working for Toyota Precision.  I like it, and it's only 2.5 miles away.  It's the first job I've ever had that is a sit on your ass all day kind of job, and I'm truly enjoying it.  I sit with my Walkman, water, tea/coffee, and I enjoy peace and serenity.  I am so thankful, but I also don't feel I can call in right now.  So I'm drinking lots of fluids and hoping sleep and pain reliever take care of it. 

So many blessings lately- good food, hosting a couple to dinner Wednesday night, supporting a friend's culinary dream, riding bicycle again, and reading good books.  I'm grateful for a clean little apartment, baking an apple crisp and enjoying it with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce, grilled cheese made with freshly shaved hot pepper cheese, and warmth and peace.  Thank You, God.  You are good.
