We’ve been dissecting flowers in my 6th grade class this week, and I think the kids really loved it. I probably had 400-500 flowers in my room over the course of two days, though, and all that pollen really got to me. Yesterday I went home at about 11:00 when I couldn’t concentrate or talk well.

I spent the rest of the day sitting at the computer, basically zoning out. I’m not happy about this, since I got almost nothing done (I still can’t get MT to run on my new server), but I guess I shouldn’t have expected much more in such a histaminified state. Ugh. I hope that doesn’t happen again. If it does, I want to force myself to either sleep it off or do some useful work.

Father, turn be back on today, and get me back up to full speed. Help me to move out of this downtime, to get back into the swing of life, to be passionate about work and play and all of life. Guide me to You. In the name of Jesus, Amen.
