Speaking of 6 degrees of seperation a clean house and Oils

So the lottery winner came forward and it is an older Zephyrhills woman.  We had heard all kinds of rumors of who it was.  We had kept hearing it was a young person....to be honest, I'm glad it is an older lady.  She has lived longer and probably has more sense of how to spend it than some young person!  And I'm really hoping she knows us LOL!  Speaking of 6 degrees of separation....our delivery man knows the delivery man who has delivered stuff to her!!!!!!!   So that is just THREE degrees of separation:)  He said that his friend said she was a nice lady:)  

Selah is happy now that she is back on her normal formula.  No more upset tummy or staying up all night!   She had OT today and our nurse is working with her to have her watch a DVD and wear headphones so she is more focused.  She has an appointment with the cardiologist tomorrow, just to manage her meds and get a new prescription.  Next week she FINALLY starts speech therapy!!!!!  YEAH! 

This morning I went to a class.  Have you heard about Essential Oils?  A few of my friends are really into them.  Me?  Not too sure about them....  but I am interested so I went to a class today with my friends.  After the class, I tried an oil on my neck and it really seemed to help.  Another friend had generously given me a small bottle of pure Frankincense.  A few times I had put some on Selah, but not constantly.  But today I ordered a start up kit of the Oils, not that I really think it will help, but I'm willing to try anything.  My neck has felt less stiffer all day but I think the smell has given me a bit of a headache. 

When I came home, I mixed the frankincense and some coconut oil in to a little roller jar and rolled some on her back and feet.  The lady who did the class is coming out to show me how to do the oils in the next few days.  At this point I'll try it.  If it works, it won't be because I have much faith in it....to be honest.   My close friend that I went with warned me I could not say the word "stupid" while in the class....so I told her my word would be "different"....instead of stupid.  LOL   As in "that is different"  There is the funniest story that really tested me....one of the ladies told me that just the smell of one of the oils had brought a woman out of a coma.  So I asked what kind/why was the woman was in the coma and she told me that the lady had had a terrible car accident.  So of course I wanted to know the final outcome of the lady and the lady telling the story said "well she died the next week"..... OK....I was losing it at this point....  but then the woman explained that the  lady was older and had lots of internal damage from the accident.    But hey this stuff might help Selah and then they can all laugh at me for being a doubting Thomas!  I'm laughing but I bought it LOL!

The boys had a BIG surprise waiting for me when I got home!  They had cleaned the entire house from top to bottom.  They dusted, swept, vacuumed. mopped, unloaded the dishwasher, put up the clean clothes, cleaned Selah's room.... this is not something they have ever done before!  They always helped out some but never done the whole thing by themselves nor did I ask or expect them to do it!   Steve even cleaned on top of the kitchen cabinets and the ceiling fans!   I am very grateful to them and still shocked:)   Our nurse was impressed too!   He said Selah and him got kicked out for a little bit so they could clean her room without bothering her!   Lately I've just been trying to do so much, and getting nothing done....I was frustrated, this has certainly brought down my frustration level.  I like my house clean and orderly and it's always been like that till now...when I have nurses, therapists delivery people...all kinds of folks in on a daily basis!   thank you Steve & Shad, I love you guys!!!! 

So that was our day....looking forward to relaxing in my nice clean house tonight, with all the kids:)

Thank you all for your prayers for Selah.  I even pray these oils will work for her.  We will try anything for her to help her heal.  If they work, you will know about it LOL

Thanks for all the emails, I love hearing your stories!
