I Don’t Get Sick

I don’t get sick. That’s why it’s such a surprise that I have been on my back almost the entire week. I literally don’t think I did a single work-related activity this entire week. It’s pathetic (and a bit scary because I am self-employed and my ability to pay the bills is directly tied to my ability to work!)

Actually, I lied. This morning I did a work-related activity. Yesterday a very important client called and asked to meet with me at 9 AM this morning. Though I didn’t sleep at all last night, and was so dizzy I could barely walk, I didn’t think I could cancel this meeting because I had no way of letting them know I wouldn’t be able to make it. So I went to the meeting and sat there, alternatingly sweating and shivering. I really remember almost nothing about what we discussed except that they want a whole new site by March 28 (I think). I hope I didn’t make too big a fool out of myself.

Anyways, all of this is to say, first, I apologize that the content of this site has been a little lacking over the past week. At least now you know why. And second, if you could be so kind, I would appreciate your prayers. I have deadlines looming and clients who will soon be getting upset with me.

    Understanding Trauma

    I don’t remember encountering the world “trauma” very often in my younger years, yet recently I seem to hear it all the time. What was once deemed a rare experience or one rarely talked about, has become a common experience and one talked about both openly and often. Where perhaps it was once defined so…
