ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where do I start?
Sunday we realized our frig died and have NOO idea when! Won't even tell you what we lost!! :O( I got in the frig early Sunday morning to get out the fruit that I cut up for the breakfast bar, and the milk for the kids. But since we had Food Court Fellowship, I didn't need to get in there for lunch. I went into the freezer to get out some meat for Taco Salad and realized my meat was already COMPLETELY de-thawed! I was like oh ok, then I am like, no wait a minute! The ice cream I did have in my frig/freezer was completely separated!!!! I was able to get the rest of my meat out and cook it, and put it in my deep freezer downstairs. We finished eating, gave the leftover fruit to the neighbors and put a movie in for the kids and got to work!! I cooked the meat and Curt took the remaining food to the trash! :O( I got out the cheese, milk and eggs. Pretty much everything is GONE!!!!!!!!!! I put all my apple butter that I made in the freezer as well! (anybody want some? ;o)) Let's just say that the canned biscuits, I had 3 of them, 2 of them were popped open!
So, here's another problem. Those of you who have seen my kitchen know that it is SMALL. Our frig is small, and there are cabinets all around. The size that we now have, they don't make anymore!! AHH!!!!!!!!!! We can go even smaller, like 4 inches all around smaller. (It may not seem small to you, but it is!!!!!!) Or we can go bigger. Problem with going bigger, we need to knock out some of my precious cabinet space! SO......... This is what we decided to do. I have one big long cabinet beside my frig that hold spices and cake mixes, flour, sugar, etc... Then there is one smaller one on top of that. Then over my frig there are 2 connected. They are all separate, THANKFULLY!!!!!!!!!! (BUMMER, I was REALLY looking forward to KNOCKING something out!!!!!!!!!!!! :OP) Since our problem is our height, we decided to take out the 2 cabinets on top of our frig and go for a taller frig. The width will be fine. I have my Gramma's china out in a cabinet and kept thinking that I need to pack them back up and put them downstairs, but just haven't taken the time to do so. So, guess what I get to do? ;o)
And to top it off, which I am not really complaining, we have had streams of water in our basement! NOT like others in our church, so no complaining, but it is just so frustrating! Trying to clean up the water downstairs, then finding out your frig DIED!!!!!!!!!!! Thankfully my mom gave me a really small one. Her work remodeled and she got the little frig and gave it to us! I have NOOOOO idea what I would do if I didn't have that!!! So, in our little frig, I have cheese, milk and eggs. Not much of anything else! I also have a small chest freezer and put the cooked meat in there. So... That's been our excitement this week so far!
Oh man, it is only MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Update on Dad...

Mom called a little while ago. Dad will be admitted, they aren't sure yet what caused the pain. He had fever, but it now is broken. He is also a little jaundice, so that is why they were/are thinking that his stent moved... They had to poke him 3 different times to try and get an IV in, his veins were so tight because he was in so much pain, he was tensing up. They took some blood from both arms and are still waiting on the results of that. They also did a chest x-ray. So still waiting, but atleast he isn't in any pain. The gave him a shot of morphine to take care of the pain, and it finally worked.
