A lot going on around here.
Posted in family life as we live it.
I have been doing the challenge when I can so I really need to devote more time to the book and bible to have success with the challenge.
We havent heard anything from lawyer or another dr. appointment. So we are at a stand still with care for hubby.
We are getting school done and that is going great.

Well we have a new lawyer.
Posted in family life as we live it.
My hubby got hurt at work over 6 months ago. Well we had to get a new lawyer due to the other lawyer health issues. So we are hoping the new lawyer gets better results then the other lawyer. We also have two Dr. Appointments monday and tuesday in Memphis Tn. Which of course is over 300 miles away from us.

Alot going on here.
Posted in family life as we live it.
Well we had alot of stuff going on this week. We had our regular school work. Then we went on an field trip Thursday to Reelfoot Lake TN to Nature Station. We still did math and Bible before we went. We then went to the annual BBQ on the River in Paducah Ky. Then we spent time at hospital they thought my grandfather had an heart attack but he was just having side effects of one his medicines so that awesome. So that was our weekend. Then of course tomorrow is my birthday.
We are of course still waiting for the next Dr. Appointment for hubby.

Well they cancel dr appt for next week.
Posted in family life as we live it.
They are refusing to pay for it because of no formal referral letter to that dr. So we had to choose a new dr now. That they will pay for. We are so upset about it. I cried for a while yesterday. We are barely making it on workmans comp. We set at home all the time because hubby's head hurts in the sunlight. We dont know what is causing his blindness, his headaches, his dizziness, and lack of balance. So we are back to a waiting game on appt. Im beginning to wonder if we are every going to get help from anyone.

Running around with my head chopped off feeling!
Posted in family life as we live it.
I have so much going on right now. Im doing classes online, chores, errands, Hubby's dr. appointments, and getting ready to start back to homeschooling daughter.
We are starting our 4th year of homeschooling. The time has flown by. We started out in Kindergarten and she is now in the 3rd grade.
Im doing pretty good in my classes.
Hubby isnt any better but he isnt any worse so God is watching out for us.

As the same as last year. It has rained us out. We were going to watch fireworks and it started storming. So we are back at home now just resting. We had fun at the Family BBQ. So that was great fun. We have some little fountians to shoot off later. So that will be our fireworks.
We are preparing to go to TX this weekend coming up. I will be doing a little homeschool shopping for this coming school year.

We have been waiting now for over a month for dr. appointment.
Posted in family life as we live it.
We have been waiting for a month now to get a dr.'s appt. for hubby. It seems like they dont care if he gets better or not. They just seem to be setting around doing nothing. I wish they would get in the wind. I dont know why they are acting that way.
Saturday, June 27, 2009
Well I finished two classes.
Posted in family life as we live it.
Well Im taking accounting classes online. I have finished two of my nine weeks of school. I finished pretty good in both of them. Now Im into two more classes now. Im really enjoying my classes. I cant wait until I finish my classes and start working in my field.

We are getting ready to go on a trip to Dallas TX.
Posted in family life as we live it.
We are getting ready to go to TX. We are going to spend time with my cousin and good friend Suellen. We are going to go a little shopping and a little R&R while we are down there. My dad is coming to stay with the dogs, cat, and fish. It is alot cheaper to get him to stay with them instead of the kennel were they always seem to get sick.

What we build for daughter for her birthday.
Posted in family life as we live it.

The completed swing set after we were done.

Thanks paw paw Roger.

And Thanks Uncle Dusty.
With my dad's and brother's help we was able to finish it in one weekend. She was so excited about getting it done.

Another picture of the finish swing set. .
My nephews were here also and they were playing on it before it was even finished. We had fun watching them play on it.

What we did over the weekend.
Posted in family life as we live it.
My daughter had a captains bed with the drawers underneath and the broads under broke. So my grandparents gave her a regular twin size bed. This is what it looked like.

This is during the process of changing it.

Still the process

Then of course the finished product.

The colors she chose were, Ballet slipper pink and peekaboo blue.
Hubby even cut off the design balls that were on it and bought her new ones. He turned it into a princess bed for our princess.

Well we had another dr appt.
Posted in family life as we live it.
We still dont have any answers for our questions. We are having to wait for a different dr appt now. They are saying though that it could be weeks yet before hubby goes back to work. We dont know though.
I have several papers due this week in school. Im so glad that Im not homeschooling daughter right now. In august though it should get kind of busy around here. I will be working out a schedule to help Allison and myself out. I beginning to wonder if I havent taken on to much.

Our weekend so far.
Posted in family life as we live it.
Our weekend is going pretty good. We went to my mom's house for alittle while today. We just sat around, talked and such. We are at home now. We had fun. I still have to get groceries tomorrow but that is okay. We have to manage our money pretty well until workmans comp kicks in or Hubby goes back to work.
I will start hunting for next years school books. Then hopefully I will find some used and have to buy very little new. WE will see. I have a couple of sales coming up that I can go to and try to find stuff.

Well we had DR. Appt.
Posted in family life as we live it.
Well we had a DR Appt. yesterday at Jackson TN. We had to get results from my Husband's MRI. Well they said that there is no bruising and that he needed to see a eye dr. asap. We are waiting on the company for a DR. Appt. So that is were we are at with that. We didnt hear or find anything new. They did say though that they think it is Post Traumatic stress disorder. So it could take months to heal.

What is happening for us?
Posted in family life as we live it.
Well first things first. I just started online classes three weeks ago. I love it. It has made my life extra busy around here though. Im slowly working on a schedule to make my days flow easier. Im also trying to get daughter managing more stuff to around the house.
I sure cant do everything. I have learned to do as much as I can while hubby is at home.
Well that is another thing that is going on with us. My hubby Al got hurt at work three weeks ago. He is having a hard time at seeing,hearing, and walking. When he was at work one night a metal handle broke off the truck trailer came back and hit him in the head. So in between Dr appt. and running other errands I have very little time for myself. But that is okay. This is just a season in our lives that we will over come with God's help and love. I thank God everyday that My hubby is even here.
