Time Off

Feb 09, 2008 11:52

Finally, some time off.  I busted ass at work yesterday so that I would not stress about what I left undone during my time off.  MR even yelled at me that I needed some time off.  Those of you who know MR realize how bad it must be for him to yell at me.

Monday is Demond's court date. This is the  day that the judge is supposed to terminate his parents rights.  But a judge can do whatever they want so I am nervous.  I am so nervous that I cried at the drop of a hat yesterday.  I am glad that the day is almost here.  We have options if they judge tries to send him home.  He has been with us for 18 months and that gives us "standing" in the case, but it would be a horrible stressful fight, We are hoping the system works for Demond.  I am nervous.

I took of 3 days next week.  I am trying to not book up all that time with things to do, but I don't think I am going to be successful.  Monday is booked with court, Tuesday we are taking the sojourn to purchase more candle making supplies.  Tuesday night we have a foster parent association meeting.  Wednesday we have a meeting with our licensing agency and Wednesday night I have church.  Thursday is back to work.  How do we stay so busy????






These are pics of Karla from 2001.  Baby girl is turning 13 in 2 weeks.  I cannot believe that she is already a teenager.  Shocking!  For her party we are going to do makeovers, high tea at a friend's tea room in McKinney, then a movie.  I think it will be an enjoyable day.  I am sure I will shed more than just a few tears for the years that are gone.  But she is turning into a beautiful young lady and I am extremely proud of her!

Where have the years gone?

birthday, karla
