I should have added this to my post but forgot. A picture of the ladies last night. The window let in a little to much light so not such good quality.

nothing much.
I don't know if I have been in a funk or just busy, in any case blogging hasn't been at the top of the list. Paul and I have spent quite a bit of time going to see his mom, helping her, getting more services set up for her at assisted living etc. She seems to be doing a little better the last few days.
I have been taking kids to the ortho. both planned and unplanned visits. I had to see the surgeon about my hernia, and now have an ultra sound set for Fri. Natalie has another Dr. apt. on Fri, and I will be meeting my former UPS friends for lunch on Fri.
Had a really nice dinner (and then dessert) out with my care group firends last night. Sort of a send off well wishes for our friend who has to have a stem cell transplant and will be in the hospital for about 3 weeks, and then confined pretty much to her home for the summer.
She has a really good attitude and they feel she is a good canidate for this. We all know to put troubles like this in Gods hands but it isn't always easy to really let go. At least for me because I LOVE being in charge and running things. I know God can do a much better job than I but still I persist. Wonder why? A work in progress I guess.
The kids have their first track meet today after school. They are prediciting rain from noon on.
I don't know if they cancel them or if they run in the rain. Not very fun for the fans. Paul is signed up to be a timer. (better him than me)
Off to bowling, only two more times for the season. I bowled awful at the beginning of the season, got really good in the middle and have been steadily getting worse again. Last week a lady on the other team had 6 strikes in a row, and then she missed. I would love to see a 300 game.

Sick girl
Natalie has been dragging herself around for a few months now. Paul and I have been getting on her for being a little lazy. Yesterday she just went right to the couch after school and couldn't get up. Finally we agreed to let her stay home and rest and miss the swim meet. I was hoping that if she rested she wouldn't have to miss school today. After resting all night she still couldn't get up this morning. So I called the dr. and got her in this morning. They did the finger prick to test her iron and such. The dr. said she was WAY low in iron and something else but I am not sure what it was. So they took urine and said that was ok. They sent us downstairs to the lab for a full blood work up, and she has to do the at home stool kit to check for blood. So although I am not glad she is sick I am glad that found something. I hate it when you know you don't feel well but they tell you that you are fine. She said expect a call by Fri. or Mon. at latest and they will tell us what she will need to take.
Yikes makes me feel bad I didn't take her in sooner. But I did mention she was tired all the time at the last visit about month or two ago and they said she seemed fine but to call if it persisted or got worse. I should have probably pressed them to take a blood sample then. But they seemed to think she was just tired because she had a a virus then.
