    Ladies,

    My life is not my own right now, really. We have a 23 yo special needs daughter living at home with us, I am her primary caregiver. I am so blessed to be able to be at home with her, however last week, our oldest married daughter, dislocated her knee while vacuuming out their van, fell and broke her elbow. Her right elbow, and she is......right handed. So I had our 2 yo old GS over the weekend, then Monday our Oldest DD called and needed me to come & get her b/c she couldn't do anything on her own, since she is right handed. So I went and got her, now I am helping 3 in & out of the tub, cutting u food for 2 of them, helping all 3 dress, getting bed...... I am thankful to The Lord that I am able to be home and truly care for our grown daughters and GS. Thank you, Lord for this blessing....in disguise.
    I am working on my boxes and will get them out ASAP!

    I think the neatest think about what I received is the fact that it came from Scotland, where some of my ancestors came from and the brush has the flag of Scotland on it, besides all the other things that I got. I just love it all.

    you are so welcome and I am so so sorry I forgot to put a note in the package. Getting old is doing that to me. GGG! I forgot last month too.

    Whew ....am I whooped!!! I just got from from dropping the S.O. off to his second sleeping. I'm just glad to put my feet up at the moment. I been on the run since 9 a.m. yet again. All these doctor appointments are just running me ragged and we are only about half way through them since he left the hospital on the 24th of last month for a week. This is the 2nd stay since beginning of the year. This last time he was placed on oxygen 24/7. So now we have 7 or 8 doctor's who all want something different done from 3 different lab visits, a CT scan, a full body x-ray, to sleep study, a PFM test done in just the past 2 weeks. We have seen 4 different doctors/specialist in the same time table with more appointments for next week scheduled.

    I was able to make a quick pit stop to do some SP shopping while I was out. So now there is just things left to do before I can ship it out. I'm trying really REAALLLLLYYYY hard to get it out on time. But right now I just want a nap before I have to head back to the hospital @6:30 in the morning and we are suppose to get freezing rain starting in about 2 hours. So now I'll need even more time to my almost 1 hour drive in one direction. I'm hoping tfor soem breathing room this weekend to do what I need to do for my SP.

    We now have an handicap tag and plate is on it's way, which meant yet another stop that we had to make & thank goodness the wait was short @ the SoS office. With him being on oxygen now, everything has to be timed to the minute.... just so it can be blown to bits by last minute suprises sprung at the last possible second and causing him to go through what oxygen we had with us. It's kind of important that we know ahead of time so we know how many 3 hours tanks to load up with us and it appears I'm now the full time driver. Oh the Joy....NOT!!!

    Well I can barily type straight, so I'm off to take my nap.
    Good night from a very tired,
    Tricia
