Hey Sharky!

It's really wierd. Tyler is all inot patriotic things and camoflauge/military stuff but his room is going to be fishing. My nephews room was done in this a while back and they are giving someof the stuff to us and Tyler says thats what he wants. It is really neat stuff and my Bro in law has said he would paint a mural on the wall for us to match. (He does this for a living also) It should turn out pretty neat. I have tried to make it really clear to Tyler he does NOT have to have this kind of room if he doesn't want it. Even though I personally think it will be awesome, but anyway he says he wants it so we are both happy!!

[hjohnson6]

It's a beautiful house LeeLee! I hope the moving in goes smoothly.

 

[LeeLee2U]

Hi Guys!!! I know i know I have GOT to get an update and I will very soonish.

Thanks for the smilies and the compliments as always B LOVES those smilies so I will have to make sure he sees them! It's getting a little hectic, they called a special inspection of ALL the apartments for this week and as I'm trying to move I do NOT have to time for this. They want everything perfect but as they do not come at a certain time it's a little hard. Last time they wanted to say something about my pot on the stove and the glass in the sink. HELLO i was trying to cook for my family. I will be sooooooooo glad to move out of here. Anyway, I did want to check in here real quick. I miss being able to get on every night, it's just been so busy.

Madisonsmom Hi Thanks for jumping in. You are so sweet! I needed tht pixie dust!!! Thank you!!!
Glad to have you along!!!

 

[mnmrmustard]

No worries, I'm sure anyone here on the boards who has been through new construction of a home knows very well what you're dealing with and just how all-encompassing it can be.

Just happy it is getting close and I hope you can duck the hassle of the apartment inspection. A glass in the sink? What a bunch of nit-pickey losers

Here's some good vibes and pixie dust to help you through the whole thing!

Here's to the NEW HOUSE!!!

LeeLee, just wanted to send hugs to you and your family . I hope everything is going well with the move and everyone's health is good.

 

[Disneydad99]

Hey LeeLee I am glad you got your New home....

hope to see ya soon!!!

 

[cherbear]

I'm here! I just wanted to post to say I've been reading and thoroughly enjoying all of it---even the posts without pictures! I laughed at all the little things...along with you.

I can't believe you have dial-up and doing all of this! God bless ya! Well, I guess that was several months ago--so I hope that you've gotten something faster by now.

I'm at the part where Braeton's wheelchair rolled into the food cart! I'm glad he didn't get hurt and you can look back on it and laugh. Those strawberries they delivered looked delicious....were they half chocolate and half white chocolate? It was hard to tell from the picture.

Enjoying your adventures! Back to reading for me!

and must'nt forget..

for Braeton!

MORE!!


Braeton eats how much?

be a good boy for Braeton!



Ask him which one is his favorite smilie. I'll bet it is this one ~~>

 

[kindakrazy2]

Hey LeeLee!

Just popping in to see if there was anything here I should be reading....

I'm just saying....

Its okay.....I'll wait.....

 

[cherbear]

Well it goes like this.
After I had Braeton me and Dh were seperated for a few years.
So I have this baby who in the Dr.s terms would be vegatative with very limited movement. I was recovering from having 6 surgeries in 16 days after B's birth and T was not quite 3 . We moved to Tx in with my parents for @4 1/2 months. So I finally get my own place. Tyler was 3 by then and I am trying to survive being a single Mom with 2 kids and NO job. Well No $$$ paying job.
I was doing therapy with B several times a day and night and was just worn out. I would go back to La every now and then and work my old job to get some $$$. They were real good about letting me do that and I could bring T with me and my sister would keep B for a few hours. I couldn't do much but I was trying to do what I could. So anyway finances were a little shall we say.....tight?!!!
Anyway I was craving Asparagus but it just wasn't in the budget that month. I was cooking one day and fussing to myself because I didn't have Asparagus and couldn't afford it and blah blah blah.....
NOw sidenote.. I could have asked my parents, but they helped me so much and I wanted to do it on my own!!
So anyway I'm just a fussing and Braeton made a laughing sound. I went to him and just started crying, because God was so good to me and I was being so unthankfull. I told God I was sorry for my bad attitude that I was so thankfull for his strength and for seeing us through. At that time I was living on less than $400 a month, but somehow my bills were always paid. God would just bless me. There were times when I would open my altoids tin after church and there would be a couple of hundred dollars in there. I would find $$ in the bottom of an old purse. My groceries lasted 2x longer than normal. I went to Houston and back on a quarter of a tank of gas 2x and it takes 3/4 of the tank to get there!! Anyway i just thanked the Lord for filling my needs and to help me be sattisied and not to pout about my wants.
couple of nights later I went to church and a lady at church that I didn't know very well at that time came up to me and asked if I used coupons. Yes I did!! So she daid well, I was cutting out some for us and I cut out these for you if you would like them. Yes i would!! It was everything I used. Anyway she said and I put you a little surprise in there and started laughing.
I reached in and pulled out a can of Asperagus. I just stared at her. She said I got this and we don't eat it. I just felt to put it in your bag. Do you even eat asparagus????
Anyway I was in shock and I went home and cried and thanked God that he not only fills our needs but He cares about our wants sometimes too!!
She still brings me Asparagus sometimes and that's been almost 4 years ago!!!

I just wanted you to know I got goosebumps reading this. Thank you for sharing such an amazing story. God works in such strange ways, when he wants us to have something.

and by the way I am an avid coupon shopper!

 

[cherbear]

I just have to comment on that Captain Jack meeting. So cool that you got all that time with him! Your boys just looked THRILLED!

You got some cute pictures! Even though it wasn't Johnny Depp, he was a pretty attractive Jack Sparrow, wasn't he?

I guess I have a thing for pirates

 

[cherbear]

When I read about the roach at Pecos Bill I just couldn't believe my eyes!


Then I scroll down and see your siggie bug and I jumped a mile!

Don't scare me like that.

 

[cherbear]

I just looked at the post about Tyler and Braeton meeting Mickey Mouse (and you looked pretty excited too! )

Those were some great pictures. What wonderful CM's they were! Isn't it amazing seeing the joy on your childrens' faces when they see the Mouse?

I enjoyed that post and I'm almost done reading now...getting there!

 

[cherbear]

You have the patience of a saint. I would have had that woman's head in the toilet with my foot while my kid flushed.

I was just rolling on through reading posts, and when I got to this one I did NOT even have to look at your name to know it was you, Tat!

Madisonsmom Hi Thanks for jumping in. You are so sweet! I needed tht pixie dust!!! Thank you!!!

well that is just WAY too nit-picky! At least you will be out of there very soon! So when is the official move-in day?

I'm all caught up! So I'm ready for more whenever you are!

No pressure though, I see you have a lot going on!

 

[5dwarves]

Hey You!

I have been out of pocket for a long time with Adam's health issues here and have only gotten back on the Dis recently. Forty two pages on your TR.... OH MY! I have a lot of catching up to do. I did skim the last few pages and saw that DH isn't doing so well. When Adam was on the waiting list, our doctors said that it was perfectly normal for patients to be on more than one list in various parts of the country. I don't know if Shannon is able to do that physically or not (travel to other facilities), but it is something to consider. I do know that UNOS will look in various geographical areas that are close enough to you for the organ to still be viable when it reaches your hospital. We live in Northern Alabama and Adam's donor was in South Louisiana. A teen girl at the hospital when we were, was receiving anti rejection treatment. She was here in AL and her heart and lungs came from Arizona. Anyway...sending prayers your way. I hope there is a match soon. I know what waiting is like. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

There must be a ton of them in the air today in Chicago since I'm having a hard time seeing through my tears too!

I'm so glad your wish trip was so wonderful.
