I SAW THE LIGHT!

BACK TO THE DOCS.  HUBBY CONTINUES TO HAVE VERY BAD COUGHING FITS. Back to the doctor's to get checked again for  c o v i d.  I think he needs an antibiotic.  Making the best of a tough situation.  Mine aren't as bad as his.

We drove to the side of the Doctor's office building, telephoned them to let them know we were outside their door ready for a 
c o v i d  swab, got swabbed, waited until they phoned back with results.  Then from there, I guess they'll tell us what to do.  He'd like to have an antibiotic this go round.  When his lungs get irritated, he needs some extra help.

UPDATE: He does not have c o v i d...Antibiotics prescribed as he has a history of easily getting bronchitis.

Read about what foods are good for healing the lungs.  To strengthen them as well, eat the following:

Anchovies

Apples

Barley

Beets and beet greens

Blueberries 

Cocoa   

Edamame

Green Tea

Lentils

Peppers

Pumpkin

Red Cabbage

Tomatoes and tomato products

Turmeric

Do your best to not smoke and avoid pollutants.  He doesn't smoke, but avoiding pollutants is ongoing.  Air Quality is what it is.  Perhaps we should run an air purifier all the time.

Trip TODAY to Doctor's, Charity Drop, Grocery store stop for eggs and butter, Menards stop for a few more supplies and a run to the COTTAGE to drop off some more Mason Jars.  Then I'll need to rest before Supper.  Veggies for me.  Thinking about Zucchini and Squash dish, V8 with grapefruit.  Boosting the low cal dishes this week.  

Hoping to sort through more paperwork to file this evening.  Getting there... just not very fast.  

HANK WILLIAMS. 

Watched the 2016 movie I SAW THE LIGHT about Country Western Singer and Song Writer Hank Williams who died when he was only 29.  Struggles with alcoholism, prescription drug abuse, infidelity and severe physical pain contributed to a challenged life.  

I did not know he wrote this song with a catchy tune, I SAW THE LIGHT, which I have sung countless times.  

I Saw the Light

Only God knows for sure if Hank really knew the Lord as his personal Savior. 

Scripture Draw today:

~Mark 8:35

"Whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it."

THIS WEEK HAS FLOWN RIGHT ON BY.  Hard for me to believe that it's FRIDAY.  Tis true, the older you get the faster time goes.  With that in mind, I am determined to work every day on the COTTAGE making preparations for moving there.  There's a method to my MADNESS. 

THIS WEEK, I have been working on the COTTAGE PANTRY.  Painting.  Finished.  Lined.  Done.  Started stocking.  In the works.  

I'm boxing up and bagging canned goods also Mason Jars to relocate to the COTTAGE PANTRY.  In the next few days, I'll continue bagging up the goods, taking them over to the COTTAGE and arranging it in the PANTRY.  HUBBY worked at priming the walls and floor sub-flooring in our lil COTTAGE Bathroom.  He's thinking we should be just about done by the end of August if able to work on it non-stop.  Can't wait.  Start getting excited to think it will be up and going very soon.         

WHILE AT THE COTTAGE, I gathered books from the various rooms that were already there to place in a new pile against one of the walls.  There they should stay until the floor to ceiling book shelves are built.  Still going through old papers and receipts. Still shredding and STILL filing.  I WILL BE EXTREMELY GLAD when the papers are all gone through and dealt with.  This is beginning to get on my nerves.  I made headway, but it is only a small dent.  Being my own CHEERLEADER to encourage myself at staying with it.  I can't throw my arms up in the air and say I QUIT!!!...well, I could, but then where'd that get me?  I'd still have to deal with it since some of the remaining papers are needed for running our estate and for accountability as responsible adults.  Having easy access to receipts and statements makes LIFE SIMPLER at times, doesn't it?

AS THE WEEK-END APPROACHES...I'll hopefully continue on with what I have been doing. One day closer to being done.  It's important to have ORDER.  Thank you very much.     

Blessings to you and may God bless your HOME LIFE,
