God Provides

This has been a very strange week for me. I would never imagine a broken toe could cause THIS much pain. The pain level has actually made me very nauseous all week. Yesterday/this morning was the worse. I didn't get much sleep last night. I fell asleep around midnight and woke up at 2 a.m. in excruciating pain. I decided to go ahead and take a pain pill and hoped I would be able to get up. I went back to bed around 3 and then was up at 7 and the pain had returned. Having a broken bone is no joke. I knew this wasn't going to be a good week, but it's nothing like I thought and in a way I'm kind of glad. I do NOT like having a broken toe. I find myself trying to hurry around the house like I normally do, but I just can't walk fast at all. I had our meals all planned out and was only able to cook one of them. I haven't been able to clean. I haven't been able to do much of anything. The reason I haven't been able to do these things is not because I'm physically unable to, but because I have been so sick and it has absolutely exhausted me. I am on constant overtime so I decided I needed to get as much sleep as I could and worry about the household chores over the weekend. I hadn't really stopped to think about how God has provided for me this week until recently. God is so good and cares about our needs and wants. Here is how God has provided: The only doctor I would see did not have any openings until November 7. I refused to go to anybody else. By Wednesday I felt so sick that my hands were tingling and I just felt weird and I got a little worried, so I tried going to my PCP but it was her off day. I had to see another doctor in the group and it was a huge mistake. He was a royal booty head. The first doctor that didn't have any openings would have given me an orthotic shoe to wear and would have taped my toe up and probably would have x-rayed it to make sure it was ok. My mom had unfortunately broken her toe 2 years ago so she still had her shoe. She found the tape at a drugstore to tape me up with and she also had crutches I could use. My mom helped me bathe Maddy because there was no way I could. She also picked up dinner for Maddy and me. My mom picked up Maddy for me Wednesday and took her to church and then brought her home. She also fed Maddy for me. I had forgotten that a pizza place called Papa Murphy's was going to be at Maddy's school giving out one free pizza to each family. The day I needed a meal the most is the day it was our turn for a pizza. I was telling my mom how God had just really provided for me this week and I was so thankful and she added that not only did God provide me food but He gave it with a smile. The pizza was in the shape of a pumpkin and they put a smiley face on it.

 I mean how cool is that. My mom came over tonight to help me bathe Maddy again and she brought over some dinner for us that will be great for tomorrow. I've been a little worried over what I'm going to feed Maddy, but God has just taken care of it all. I am so thankful my mom has been so willing to help. Bless her heart she has gone back and forth so much for me, but I truly appreciate her help.
