Gerrit and I ready for the wedding. I think Gerrit is laughing.
The Bride and I. She's great!
She and I were both para's for Mr. C, who is with us in this picture. We took it for the kids in our class so that they could see the Bride all dressed up. And so that they would know we have a life outside of school...shocking!
These are the shoes I wore. I think I need to burn them because I love them so much.
Warning: If you are sensitive to grossness, don't read this. About the "retching." Gerrit had food poisoning last week due to eating at a beloved restaurant which shall go unnamed. I'll leave most of that to your imagination. But I'm sure whatever you're imagining is true. In all the time we've been together, I had never heard Gerrit throw up before. That was a happier, more innocent time in my life. It was as if the man were puking up his soul and I was helpless to stop it. I prayed my little heart out for him with white knuckled clasped hands (but only when they weren't plugging my ears). He's made a full recovery (it's a miracle!), but we won't be eating there for a while.
Yesterday, the first official day of my Spring Break, doctors confirmed what I already knew: that I have strep throat. Germs love me. I get everything. I laid on the couch for about 2 days. Which may sound wonderful (even to me at times), but it wasn't. With the unusually sore throat and high fever, it had been kicking my butt. But praise God for medicine, because I'm already feeling better. I can actually sit upright for more than a couple minutes now!
How is your week going?

You make me laugh. . .and remember when we were first married and I got food poisoning. We always laugh because in our little apartment, where the phone cord reached to every room, the noises coming from the bathroom had my husband turning up the TV volume louder and louder just to drown out the aweful sounds. I think you know what I mean. Glad that is over, huh?!! For both of you!
