A strange week

This week has been a very strange week! Full of mixed emotions and happenings! It all started on Monday...

Monday..

I got up on Monday morning and felt really happy that it was Monday! I never usually like Monday mornings much!! I should have known something strange was going on!

I was just about to go out to work and the postman came... In the letter was information about the redevelopment of the area I live in and a plan showing where homes are to be knocked down and new ones built.

MY home looks like it's coming down!

When?...You might ask!.... Not sure...but sometime in the not too distant future!

All sorts of emotions went through me, sadness, anticipation, fear.... what does all this mean for me, who has lived in this home for 31 years?

Tuesday..

I woke up on Tuesday having had a bad night thinking about the news from Monday.. I heard Chris say that he felt ill and weak. Chris does not have time off from work very often, he is almost always at work, so I knew he must have felt ill and he looked unwell.

Wednesday and Thursday..

Chris was still unwell and I carried on worrying about him and the house! By the end of Thursday I had it all worked out in my mind..We would temporarily move house then move into a new house and it would all be great!

Friday..

I woke up on Friday to find Chris looking really ill..He certainly had something..Flu? a chest infection? I'm not sure which, but I got straight onto the doctor and my work to tell them I would not be in. The news about Michael Jackson (see previous post) came as a big shock also.

Saturday...

How could it go from being bright and happy on Monday morning and being very worried by today?.. I know God has been speaking to me about changes and I trust him completely. I know Gods plans will prosper me and not harm me. I am praying that Chris will be much better by Monday..

Thankyou to my son and friends on Twitter for helping me feel happier about things! XXXX
