Timing and Answered Prayer

Timing. Yesterday afternoon I was struck down by some nasty gastro thing. I won't go into details, but it was pretty intense between about 3pm and 11pm. (Kate had the same thing 12 hours earlier). Gastro is a total pain whenever it happens. But today was my Old Testament exam - timing, huh!?

Answered Prayer. As you can imagine I was praying for a timely reprieve. I can hardly believe it, but I had a pretty good sleep and was well enough to sit the exam at 9am this morning! I could think clearly the whole time. Five essays in three hours. Questions were (mostly) on things I'd studied. Praise the Lord.

I still feel pretty mashed, but I think I'm on the mend. My next exam is on Wednesday, so I've got a window of time for recovery and more study.

PS. Noah has (thus far) avoided the bug.
