You have to be kidding me!!! I cannot believe it has been a month. I have been thinking that it has been a while since I blogged, but when I logged on tonight I was very surprised that it has been almost a month.
So....What has been going on in my live over the past month? It seems as if time has just flown by. Does anyone know what that feels like:)
We bought Mike another vehicle a couple of weeks ago. 2003 Ford Expedition ~cheap~ with a lot of miles on it. Since he has totaled 2 vehicles since last fall, we don't want to put much money into another truck. (We need to save it for medical bills.) Poor guy couldn't even drive it for several weeks. He finally got released from the ortho dr. last week. Now he can drive again and started back to work today. His spirits seem to be doing well. I just ask you all who are reading this to continue to pray for him, though. There is still quite a bit, emotionally and physically, for him to overcome.
What have I been doing? Trying to hear God when ever I can. Other than that, just being a taxi driver. Today I did work in the yard quite a bit spreading poison to kill the ants etc. and spraying around the perimeter of the house. I did start trimming the shrubs and the lawn service I use was across the street. The guy came over and said they would do it next week for cheap. Luckily, I got out of having to do that!!! Payton loved being outside with me today. He said he was having so much fun. (I'm glad somebody was)
Ashley's had field day, dentist appointments, dr. appointments, softball games, piano lessons, dance lessons, field trips, etc... I see a light at the end of the tunnel now since school is almost over. On Saturday, she had a softball game that put her team in 2nd place. We have one more game to win to maintain this placement, if they do, her team will go to a city playoff game. Saturday was also her dance recital (jazz) and she did so well. I love to watch her dance. Sunday was her piano recital and Mike said she did great. Unfortunately, I had to go back to work Sunday since I took off at 3 on Saturday and did not get to see her piano recital. But, I hear her play all the time and know that she plays well.
Payton has imaginary friends now. I don 't know if he actually "sees" them or not. A couple of weeks ago he let me know that he has babies. They do not have names, just referred to as "my babies". So there is always more than one friend. Some days there are two, other days there's five, but today there was ten. He lets them get up on his bed by themselves, sit in the car without seat belts on, and tonight, they got thrown into the fish tank where they became fish almost instantly. Mothers day out is over for the summer and some of us are sad about that, others could stay with mom, be under my feet all the time, and be completely happy about that. I can't say that I mind it between the hours of 9 am and 8pm with several much needed breaks in between.
