Thursday

Well, I had a mishap last night (nothing new for me). Missie and I went to a small group prayer meeting at a home, and I backed into a car sitting along street. Missie nor I neither one saw it. The man came out and I offered my insurance information but he wouldn't take it. He said it was a work car and that I really didn't hurt it, and that he was more worried about my van. My van has a dent in the fender, which Jr. can probably pop back out. The man of the house where the meeting was, came out and he is friends of the guy whose car I hit. So it all worked out. But I felt so bad. I told Missie maybe I had better stick to going to the church for prayer meetings, but she loves to go to the small one as one of her friends is always there with her family (Sara Dershied's dd). Missie actually went to 2 last night. Travis J. has one at 5 for the youth on the 3rd and 4th Wed. night of each month, then he does another adult one at 7. She enjoys Bro. Johnson so much! He has made such an impact on her life since she has met him.

Happy Bunny, thanks for saying our house is beautiful and homey looking. I try to make our homes homey inside and out. We are just renting. Our house in SC was rent to own and when we moved we just gave it back to the landlord because it was still in his name etc. We have been told by Johnsons that they would like to sell us this house, but we will see. Right now we can't afford to buy much of anything. I can't wait until Feb. when we get our tax refunds back and we can get some things we need for the house. We need more mini blinds, doors for the children's bedrooms, trash cans, curtain rods, curtains, etc. But these things can wait except for the doors, we feel those are a priority. We are getting a stove, and just need the line to hook it up to the gas. It will make cooking easier, but I have managed.

Well, I went to the local office to apply for medicaid yesterday, and I have an appt. on Monday. So we will see how that goes. I have to find some papers that I need to take with me. Jr. is having to get off 1 1/2 hrs. early to come and stay with Preston while I go for that. He will work an extra 1/2 hr. the other days to make it up to 40 hrs.

Today is Preston's shower day, so waiting for him to get up and around so I can get that over with. He just seems to tired. I think it is everything catching up with him; the emotional and physical part of the move, as both is hard on him.

I had thought maybe in a month we could put Preston on our insurance, but because of his age, we are not sure if that will work; but Jr. will check it out at work.

Until next time.
