The last two weeks have been really hard...My Mother ended up in ICU from complications from the flu...She came home on Wed. and is doing better...but we don't know what some of the long term prognosis is. Its really complicated to go into details about everything...but she has heart and lung issues...and treatment for one or the other creates complications for one or the other. Teri has been home with Sarah watching her during the day. Again she is a godsend to us. We are so lucky to have her be a part of our family. We were talking the other day...i never want her to feel like we've taken advantage of her...and she said...we all make sacrifices for our family...no-one isn't making some kind of extra effort to keep things together. i look back on the past couple of years and think damn...we sure have been thru a lot as a family...i guess what doesn't kill us makes us stronger...but damn...i need a break. On a positive note...Teri is doing great with her words and social skills. Its amazing what 45 min. once a week does for this girl!!! Her gymnastics class is so much fun!!! she is just an amazing little girl. We are tackling a little at a time with organizing things in the house. We just about have the upstairs living area done...Now to conquer the garage...oh god the dreaded garage....i don't know whether to throw the shit out...or have a garage sale...a garage sale entails actually keeping it and taking a whole weekend to sell it...but...that's extra money...and might be fun...not sure what to do. I guess we'll vote on it lol...and i get to cast Teri's vote...cause i'm calling it here and now on LJ...i will have witnesses!!~!
