Trying

Dear Family and Friends,
I'm just back from Lois and Rays.  They came over this evening to help as I worked on the little wheel chair for Starr.  Later in the evening Lois slipped on some stairs inside the house and fell hard twisting her ankle, eventually she was able to get up into the walker with wheels but then the walker hit a bad spot in the concrete and she tumbled over taking Ray with her.  They both were so brave, just helping each other back up and now Lois is home and safely in her bed.  It is so heart wrenching to see someone in pain.  Tri level homes are not built for old people and we are all heading that direction. 

The rest of the day paled in comparison to the excitement of that last couple hours.  The dog wheel chair is coming along nicely but we've not figured it all out yet.  Starr is so far not impressed at all but I hope that changes once we get her going in it.

The girls were sweet this morning but Kallie was so sleepy, her favorite word was no, if you've been a parent you'll remember times like that.  If fact there are days we all feel like that, not fit for socializing at all. This is teacher appreciate week at the school and Keanna is fully into that.  Today she wore her tie dyed shirt from the girl scouts adventure where they created these beautiful shirts.  She put her hair back with a Hawaiian tie and was cute as a button.  The family went to a Hula festival yesterday and the girls could not stop talking about how much fun they had.  So they had a great mothers day.

Well once again I'm looking for orders, I have one to write up tomorrow and one to see and then I'm caught up.  At least the managment company that has not cut a check in awhile sent an email.  They plan to cut a check this Wednesday, no word on why they are so far behind or what their plan is.  Its hard to be loyal and work extra hard for a company that pays as little as it can and takes forever to pay.  Even at that they are paying $1800 and owe me a total of $5400.  So it will be another month before they pay more.  At least this money will nearly make the house payment, praise the dear Lord.

Well for now I'm signing off,

Love to all and please pray for hurting Lois tonight.
