Interesting day

Well I've had an interesting day.....started this morning early at the Social security office.  A guy sat down by me and started talking to the whole room it seemed...he was in court today because his "baby mama" knew he was "blanking" another woman and she called the police on him.  She had him charged with Domestic violence and he lost his social security card when he got arrested....  "Baby Mama" YES there are folks who use it in a regular "conversation"   It was an eye opening morning.....  I just sat and reread all my paperwork like a zillion times and acted like I was so engrossed with my work!

Then I did a little shopping for my hubby.  He has tons of dress clothes.  He has jeans and work out clothes but no nice beachy clothes, no decent shorts...so I got him a couple of outfits and some short socks so he will not be tempted to wear his calf high white socks LOL  While I was there I looked for a certain undergarment that is hard for me to find, but thanks to Beal's I found what I needed in the right color!  Now I can wear my shirt without worrying about a wardrobe malfunction!!!!!!!!  I am so happy!

I got an email from the Tampa Tribute asking about doing a story on us regarding the insurance issue.  Yeah they will be coming nest week to do it!  I'm thankful people are interested in our story still and want to help!

My laptop seems to have a broken number pad....I guess I used too many !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   LOL  I have to send it in.  So I'm using the old computer. 

Selah is doing fine today, less secretions than she was dealing with.  She seems relaxed and content today:)

Last night we had the "battle of the Ants" around here.  The ants were all in the little kids' room.  We moved everything and sprayed.  I don't let the kids eat anywhere but the kitchen so it must just be from the rain.  No one got any bites over night:)

So I found a great hotel for us for a couple of days next week.  Looking forward to the beach!  In spite of my fair skin I am a beach girl, I love the sand, the waves, the smells....I LOVE the beach!   We were able to get a great deal on a really nice hotel right on the beach!  We will be on the ground floor directly on the beach. with a sliding glass door to a small patio.  Then just a few yards to the surf.  That is my kind of hotel!  I like to be right on the water.  It's great so the little ones can be outside some and then go in for a nap.  And some of us will still be able to out on the beach. 

 

 

 

 

Yep that is what I'm talking about.....  Of course this is a trip that is not easy for me.  We have never left Selah before but  we  absolutely trust our nurses and we are only going for 2 days and are only 60 miles away.  Selah would not care at all to be taken with us.  She is very content in her home and really does not like to leave it. 

Of course there is the whole water thing for me.  Our little ones always are in a floaty device made for special needs kids and one of us holds each of them if they are in the water.  This year Shad will have to wear a life vest.  The last couple of years we haven't required him to wear one as he can swim.  But he is still not a strong swimmer and after what we've been through, he has to wear it.    Looking back to last summer when we each had a little person to watch at the beach, we let Shad have a bit too much freedom.  You can get separated quickly in the water!!!   He didn't have any problems but.....I know too much now and have heard too many other families' stories.....   Just this summer a young teen got caught in a riptide near here and drown...  I want to always take every precaution!

I hope the beach can still hold the magic it always has for me without me freaking out with the kids.  I will be taking my happy pills with me...    When Sarah had her swimming lessons, at the second one, when she was putting her face in the water, I had to leave for a little bit.  I almost had a panic attack!   But we do need some time to just chill.....  just a couple of days....then we 'll be home for Selah's birthday.

Hope everyone has a good weekend, please remember to pray for Selah...if you go to church on Sunday...maybe you could ask for special prayer for her.
