OK, so yes, I know God is real and He does answer prayers. But this became more real to me tonight.

My parents left on Thursday for WDW. Sometime after they left, I was sitting down for breakfast and I was overcome by this incredibly strong desire to pray for them on the road. So I did.

And it wasn't enough. I just had this sense of urgency to really pray for them. So I did.

This happened 2 more times. In fact I was in tears and just told God I don't know what's going on but please send his angels to protect my parents. I was going to call them but then got caught up with nursing Elizabeth and then the feeling passed.

Well, tonight my mom called. She said she didn't want to worry us but they had a very close call when they got on I-95 after leaving our place. A tractor-trailer was carrying three concrete dividers and they came loose...right in front of my parents. My dad was able to get around it by "an inch" my mom said. She was screaming b/c she thought they were goners. The beams ended up hitting the two cars behind them but my parents were unhurt. (I forgot to ask about the other drivers).

When she told me this, I just started crying again... I realized how good God is and how we are to obey Him when he tells us to do something.

I never had a feeling like that before or had a prayer request answered in such an overt way.

Wow!!!

Wow. Thank God. And how scary is that?

Evenin Chris Miss

Hope the at home scale is right



Yeah, think we will end up going on a sunday now. Bummer is that you will already be gone then






Sorry you both are in the funk

Chele...Hope your arm and hand are feeling better soon

Betsy..Yay for getting to meet up with Tat and my mom

Thanks. I am working on it!

So, part of my funk is coming from Eliza being sick. She has been running a fever literally since Wednesday evening. I give her Motrin or Tylenol and it goes down, then when it wears off it goes right back up. I talked to the Ped and they said as long as there are no other symptoms to just keep doing what I'm doing. They say it's probably something viral. So I start getting worried today and of course it's Saturday and the Ped is out so I took her to the Walgreen's Take Care Clinic. The only thing she had was slightly swollen lymph nodes. He told me to keep doing what I was doing. Fast forward to a little while ago and she throws up everywhere UGH!

Sorry for the vent, I'm just tired and worried.

Oh gosh. Poor thing. I hope she is okay.

 

[Trentmom]

Yeah, after I sent the message I realized that you probably meant ICED tea...not hot tea. Silly me!

I plan to do a TR...will post link and list my thoughts and get your advice!



Yeah, to be down 6 lbs!!! I went down 3 and gained 2...UGH...course it couldn't have anything to do with the Reese's Pnut butter cups and Heath bars that I had, huh?!?



Sorry to hear your funk and arm/hand is hurting. Yes, get back to doing those exercises!



Sorry you are in a funk, too. Hopefully things will get better.

Its okay

Oh wow

God does work in mysterious ways

I am glad your parents okay

Did your parents stop after it happened? Do they know what happended to other two cars? I hope everyone is alright

 

[betsywdw]

Oh gosh. Poor thing. I hope she is okay.

Thanks Chele. I think I'm just exhausted from worrying...something I'm sure you're familiar with!

 

[Trentmom]

Sharky, my how you've aged since I last talked to you

Trent is so cute! 82

He is too funny

Hi girl

I know..where has the time gone

aww poor girl...Think it is something viral for sure. I know a few people with those same symptoms..all viral

Hope she feels better soon

Sharky, oh how I've missed you

Thanks girl!

Yeppers, our big meet is here again! Hard to believe it's already been a year since the last one!

Hi girlie. I Missed you, too. Been way too long

Are you watching Daisy of Love? It is such a trainwreck, but I can not stop watching it

 

[Leger13]

Yeah, once you're in the funk, it's tough to get out! I'm hoping to soon...I hate being a party pooper!

I'm really looking forward to our dinner! No reason to be nervous this time since we all know each other. I'm sure there will be pics too

Yeah, I would give that PCP a nice talk. How horrible for Chris.

aww it's okay Betsy. Totally understand

Good glad you are looking forward to it.

Yeah, think we will end up going on a sunday now. Bummer is that you will already be gone then

awww so sorry to hear that Eliza is sick girl. I totally understand why you'd be in a funk over that. I hope she feels better soon!

 

[Leger13]

i caught an episode of that and thought immediately of you and betsy

 

[kaoden39]

Thanks Chele. I think I'm just exhausted from worrying...something I'm sure you're familiar with!

Yeah I am but I think it is harder when they are little like Stinkerbelle.

 

[betsywdw]

Hi girl

I know..where has the time gone

Hi girlie. I Missed you, too. Been way too long

Are you watching Daisy of Love? It is such a trainwreck, but I can not stop watching it

Time flies

Yeah, it seems like there is constantly something going around we somehow always pick it up

No! I didn't know it was on...OMG...I need to record it! Nothing like a good trainwreck

aww it's okay Betsy. Totally understand

Good glad you are looking forward to it.





awww so sorry to hear that Eliza is sick girl. I totally understand why you'd be in a funk over that. I hope she feels better soon!

Thanks Carla I'm hoping tomorrow is the turn around day for her...fingers crossed!

i caught an episode of that and thought immediately of you and betsy

hehehehe....we do love our reality tv

 

[kaoden39]

i caught an episode of that and thought immediately of you and betsy

Isn't that a train wreck. My daughters for some unknown reason are loving it.

 

[betsywdw]

Yeah I am but I think it is harder when they are little like Stinkerbelle.

Yeah, when they are little, it's harder for them to let you know what's wrong. She's getting better at that but it's still not fun!

 

[betsywdw]

Isn't that a train wreck. My daughters for some unknown reason are loving it.

Ok, now I must watch it! All of these good reviews are peaking my interest

 

[Leger13]

hehehehe....we do love our reality tv

yeah I know y'all do. I'm starting to get more into it. I still can't believe I've paid attention to AI this season. I've never paid attention to it before.

Isn't that a train wreck. My daughters for some unknown reason are loving it.

Heck yeah it is. I watched one of the first episodes with the triplets....good lord. At least she was smart enough to get rid of them.

Ok, now I must watch it! All of these good reviews are peaking my interest

 

[Trentmom]

i caught an episode of that and thought immediately of you and betsy

You know us well

Time flies

Yeah, it seems like there is constantly something going around we somehow always pick it up

No! I didn't know it was on...OMG...I need to record it! Nothing like a good trainwreck


Thanks Carla I'm hoping tomorrow is the turn around day for her...fingers crossed!


hehehehe....we do love our reality tv

It is only on the 2nd episode, so have not missed much yet

But it is so awful, it is good

Isn't that a train wreck. My daughters for some unknown reason are loving it.

Because it makes for good laugh

 

[Trentmom]

Real World/Road Rules....not as good as it normally is

AI.....Is awesome of course....

America's Next Top Model...anyone watching? It is almost at the end
Tomorrow they are having a marathon on Oxygen or bravo..forget which one

Hills......Stephanie is a MORON. I know Laure must have been forced to ask her boss for a job for her.

Hell's Kitchen...pretty good.....I kind of hope guy wins..do not think he will go much further without help from show



Betsy..SO you think you can Dance is starting up this month too

WOO HOO

 

[kaoden39]

Yeah, when they are little, it's harder for them to let you know what's wrong. She's getting better at that but it's still not fun!

Exactly. I think when they are little so much of it is left to guess work that it can be really frightening.

Ok, now I must watch it! All of these good reviews are peaking my interest

It is interesting to sat the least.

yeah I know y'all do. I'm starting to get more into it. I still can't believe I've paid attention to AI this season. I've never paid attention to it before.



Heck yeah it is. I watched one of the first episodes with the triplets....good lord. At least she was smart enough to get rid of them.

The triplets looked like they were straight out of the 80's didn't they?

You know us well



It is only on the 2nd episode, so have not missed much yet

But it is so awful, it is good




Because it makes for good laugh

And she is priceless.

It's addicting, beware

Sharky and I should probably enter a program at some point for the addiction

You know us well

Yes, the Challenge is just ok. Of course I keep watching

Hell's Kitchen is always entertaining...I agree with you on him winning.

Love AI

Haven't watched ANTM...maybe I should record the marathon tomorrow.

As for Stephanie Pratt...Good Lord is the girl a ditz! Should be interesting to see Lauren fire her hehehehe!

Exactly. I think when they are little so much of it is left to guess work that it can be really frightening.



It is interesting to sat the least.



The triplets looked like they were straight out of the 80's didn't they?



And she is priceless.

SB is peacefully sleeping right now Let's hope that remains!

Interesting to say the least...I like that description

we will so be in reality rehab later in life

I think I am not that into Challenge this year...as I do not recognize a few of the regulars..not sure who heck they are

Yeah, I swear they throw people in and make us think we should know them

At least we can go to reality rehab together Of course they would have to separate us so we couldn't talk about it
