I'm slowly getting over my cold. Working helps, as weird as that may seem. My students have been relatively nice to me while I've had no voice. Today was a good day, all day. I had a meeting at the LEA after work for overseas trained teachers. What a waste of time and we didn't even get any compensation for going! I just got in. The room was stifling hot and there wasn't enough time to do all the things they had on the agenda so we rushed, rushed, rushed through everything. I did get a free dinner out of it though.

The days rush by in a haze lately. I spent a good part of the night reading some of the Psalms last night.

"Have mercy on me, God, for I am in distress." Psalm 31:9

"Commit your way to the Lord. Trust also in him, and he will do this: He will make your righteousness go forth as the light, and your justice as the noon day sun. Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him." Psalm 37:5-7a

"I waited patiently for the LORD; he inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the desolate pit, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the LORD." Psalm 40:1-3
