[Granny Hatchet]

I had to go to the hardware store for a long bit to reach the screws holding the transom window shelves in place. One screw it stripped on the top shelf and I tried the only rubber band I could find, no luck. With the other three out I also tried to just rip it out of the wall, but that didn’t work either.

I guess my little drill isn’t powerful enough because the other screws just turned in place or didn’t turn at all.

I’ve only tried camping once with the kids. Bubba was about 3-4 I guess. We broke camp at 9pm and drove home because it was that or I was walking into the woods and never coming back.

Bubba is older now, perhaps he would find it fun. Sounds like you'd want total buy-in from him first though.

realizing that migraine had other plans I need to do a double workout day at some point to make up for it.

No you don't have to! You are allowed a day off for a migraine.

My crocuses are blooming!

Mine aren't, maybe in 2 months. And if they were blooming they would be buried under the 17" of snow we are supposed to get over the next 2 days.

Robert agreed to the blood work and US that will be done in Madison and refused the rest of it.

Very sad. I really wish he would take to heart the pain and agony he is inflicting on his future self

How is Tom today?

He dont have a mean bone in him. He gets over excited when company comes because he is usually locked up. Rare for him to get to meet someone new.

I still would refuse to come in.

He was fine, for his age. He’s never been a kid who just sleeps. He takes a long time to get settled then still sleep walks or wakes up several times through the night. It was a bit too hot in the tent and both kids were sweating on top of me. DH has a lot of trouble getting to sleep because of medication, so he was watching videos in his truck. With the AC running. Lots of people were driving in and every time bubba saw lights he stood up to investigate. I didn’t lose my cool, but I was getting close, and told DH we needed to leave. We packed up and drove the 1.5 hours back so the kids didn’t associate camping with mom flying off the handle.

We were in Kisatchie National Forest. There’s a stone-bottomed creek, rare for this area, and we had spent all day playing in the water and then we ate s’mores. So they had a good trip in general. There’s also a herd of wild horses in some parts of the forest, but I’ve never seen them.

One of the routes I can take to the new house is through part of Kisatchie. The camp is near Kinder (southwest, above Lake Charles). New home is near Bossier City (northwest near Shreveport).

Bruce, there hasnt been any infection to the naked eye from his foot yet and the culture came back neg. But today for the first time I thought I seen it starting. Lot of pain in that foot but otherwise he is holding his own. He enjoyed Nancys visit today. She waited on him of course.
As far as Robert, I lost my temper a little while we were there. I was pretty aggravated w/ him. I said Whats the point of us being here today if your not going to listen to the dr ? I have had way too many trips lately and you know I am in a ton of pain. He said so, you want to leave ? I told him he didnt need me to get his blood drawn and I walked out . He got that done . then met me in the van. I never asked him nothing about today .

 

[Granny Hatchet]

I still would refuse to come in.

Well, LOL You dont have to. They live here and I didnt see another choice .

Camping, do you run into people that dabble in the black magic, voodoo or ?? I have heard your state is where its at I guess.
What made me think of it is I am sitting here hurting bad and something started poking me right where the worst pain is.I went to the bathroom and dropped my drawers and there was a chicken feather. poking me in the butt ! LOLOL I cant imagine where it might of come from or how it got there this afternoon.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Moms meals called to check on his order this after noon and as I was talking to her she stopped mid sentence and said are you ok? I said no Im hurting and then she started praying for me.

I met a voodoo man in New Orleans when DD was a toddler. It was raining and I was in the French quarter with DH’s sister. DH and a friend had run to get the car because the streets were flooding a bit. Nothing out of the ordinary, just gross. DH’s sister had gone into a shop so I was alone with DD. This man wandered up and started talking to me. He had a lanyard on his neck that had a clump of talismans on it. Like a baby shoe, rabbits foot, bells, beads, keychains, etc. I remember specially the baby shoe.

He would talk to me, ask where we had eaten, what sights we saw, then he’d shake that lanyard and speak over DD in a low tone. Then he’d talk to me more. This happened about three times and I never could hear what he said. When DH finally pulled up in the car the water in the roads was over ankle deep but the rain had stopped. I made us pray over DD to release any type of anything the man had put on her. There are good and bad types, allegedly, but I didn’t want any part of anything.
