Thursday

Well, we took Preston to the psychiatrist today. He is trying him on a new sleeping pill to see if that helps. So we will see what happens. It was 2 a.m. before he went to sleep, so I am hoping he will sleep good tonight. We took him out to Steak and Shake for his birthday supper tonight; he picked where we ate. He loves to go there. Then we took him to dr. and stopped at Goodwill but he didn't find a thing, thank goodness, LOL. I told him he is a man now and it is time to put away childish things, LOL. The dr. asked about his moods and if he got angry at all. I had such a good report for the dr. along those lines! What a sweetheart he is most of the time, and how different that is from before. He is so much happier now. It is untelling how long that tubing and malfunctioning shunt has been causing him problems. But we are thankful the problem was found, and after almost losing him, we now have a happy son again. Tomorrow is the big day for him! It is hard to believe he will be 20.

We go to dr. tomorrow to see what he says about Missie's blood work and what the next step is. This week it has been her elbow. It kept coming out of the socket and then going back in. It was paining bad down her arm. So we will see what he says.

Missie and I got her and my closets cleaned out this week, and had bags of stuff that we passed on to a homeschool family with 6 kids. They love it when we clean out stuff; it is like Christmas to them. The closet looks sooo much better.
Next week we will tackle Preston's probably! That should be fun. He doesn't like parting with one thing! I snuck out a couple of things this week and he won't even miss them. He doesn't like it when I call the stuff "junk" that he has in his closet, LOL.

I may have something special to share in a few days! I can't even give a hint yet, but will be able to share soon. Just pray about a special request for our family.

Until next time!
