Update on my neighbor...

Evelyn broke her hip in her fall...Linda called from the ER...not sure what they are going to do...maybe surgery tomorrow...remember them in your prayers this weekend...
it's a scary thing to be going through for both mother and daughter...
and it's life changing as well...

We are done with Harold's apartment:

Craig...
Tia...
and Chris...
me and the kids were sorting and laughing and having a good time here...
we made a dent in today's haul and Steve had taken off to go back and finish the cleaning and get the tv cart...
then there came a knock on the door...it was our neighbor across the street, Jerry...
he said that Evelyn had fallen in the road and he couldn't get her up...
she is our neighbor Linda's mother...
she is the sweetest old lady...the kids got her in a wheel chair and wheeled her down to my driveway...I checked her over and we called the ambulance...
I'm afraid she may have broken her hip or thigh up high...
I called Linda on her cell phone and she was getting off of the interstate right by the hospital so she went there and was waiting on her...
these kids were great with her...
they did a wonderful job getting her up out of the road and keeping her calm...
I am so proud of them...
we are waiting on a call from Linda...it's going to be a long night for them...keep them all in your prayers...

Another Saturday morning:

Steve got up early and headed for his dad's place to get that finished up.
Craig and I are hanging around...we are both coughing and blowing our noses...head cold for sure...plenty of juice...and kleenex...
it started out snowing last night and turned to rain...they are hoping for all rain until the very end Sunday/Monday and only a couple inches of snow...which is better than the rumors or 9-11 inches of snow initially...
been talking with Rebecca this morning on her way to town and how much we love blogging and why...and then she went into the antique mall we are in to check to see if we have sold anything else since her last visit...she will call back when she gets out of there...
Craig went up and got the mail...more of Harold's bills are trickling in...and we got Doug's title in the mail yesterday so had to mail that out to him this morning...so Doug- it's on it's way...let me know when you get it...
so...I need to get started on something...there's just so much and yet so little I can do until Steve brings the last of the stuff in...will show you when we get it done...
