Whatever....

This morning I got up full of energy and ready to take on the day. I hung out some laundry in mild weather and begun to already feel the exhaustion of my legs wanting to slow me down. They have been so weak since losing the feeling in the sides of them. I don't understand how that would affect the 'energy' or the 'spark' that makes your legs go. It is so hard to explain! I feel like someone without the ability to speak when it comes to describing how my legs feel....so frustrating. But still I managed to push through it continuing on with laundry and moving onto doing dishes and sweeping and mopping. All the while, feeling as if I was walking through sand.

So I started another load and was on the phone with the appliance people about bringing out another refrigerator. The old one that we had felt like it was shocking us when we grabbed the handle. It was sort of nice, kept us all out of there. But I knew it wasn't all in my head...the appliance technician said that it was putting out 76 volts of electricity. Just enough to 'feel' it. Meh. Out with the old and in with the new, I say!

2 hours later I was admiring my new refrigerator and thank God he hooked up the ice maker! Big C Appliance, your fast and professional. Thanks guys and lady who answers the phones and sets up appointments.

I made a decision to block an ex friend on Facebook. She knows why. I refuse to let someone mistreat me time and time again. I don't appreciate the lies and I have kept quiet about it long enough. Those who chose to believe her also need therapy. Yes you do, admit it.

Today also while checking Facebook, I saw my little brother Rhett. He isn't so little anymore. He is a big ole football player. (this is the son of my step mother and deceased father) I remember Rhett as a small child. I will never forget what he said at my dad's funeral as all was quiet around and dad's casket was being lowered into the ground,
"I'm going to miss my daddy."

That sort of summed it up for me and I thought....yep....you just don't know how much little one.

Beyond that, I am looking forward to getting to know him better and I hope that he is open to knowing us as well.

I am having a relatively quiet afternoon with all the kids in school. Last week at this time I was in child pose on the bed, praying to God to take the pain away. Now, I can breathe a sigh of relief and sit comfortably at the computer. Thank God! I have not had the opportunity to express myself in writing in what feels like years, so this feels so good to reconnect.

During the rain storms this weekend, the power was knocked out in my twin's school! But another school agreed to take them in, afternoons from 1 to 5. I can't imagine what is being learned in 4 hours, but GOOD LUCK teachers!

It was nice having the twins at home with me this morning. We had turkey bacon, eggs and toast with strawberry jam. They played around a bit and then I helped Angela with her hair, and off they went.
It was so quiet and peaceful with them...they are some of the most wonderful children that I know...handed to me by an Angel.

Lately, I have been getting a ton of crochet stuff done..
