I'm feeling better today. Yesterday wasn't good at all and trying to plan a party was out of the question........thank goodness Dae Lynn took over and everything came together just fine. We had a nice group that came for Damon's going away party and everyone said how much they enjoyed getting together and that we should do it again!!!
Damon left for Teen Challenge a little while ago. It was really difficult to see him say good-bye to the kids. He won't have ANY contact with any of them for a month!! No phone calls, no letters, and no visits. After that I think that they can see them a couple of times a month and talk to him on the phone. Dae Lynn's driving him up and I know that she'll be crying all the way home. I feel so sorry for them but in the end it's the best thing to do.
Damon's actually changed to Teen Challenge near Kansas City and will be there for a year instead of 15 months. Plus it will be a lot closer for Dae Lynn to go and visit!!! Now if we can just figure out a friend that lives there that she can stay with it would work out perfectly!!!!
Janet, I hope that everything works out for the best for your Mom. I know that the decisions are over-whelming but we're here for you!!!!
Judy, I'm so glad to see your writing progressing!!! I do wish that you'd put some on for us to read!!!
Gayle, WHEW!!!!! I was tired just from reading your post!!! I can't imagine running that much in one day!!! If I go to town twice in one day I'm fustrated!!!!! It sounds like you've got your Mom taken care of for her reunion and found some good deals.......and that you're getting your kitchen all shaped up!!! Busy.....busy!!!
Marilyn, the baby will come when it comes!!! Most of us have been in your shoes!!!! I think that being the mother of the new mother is a little harder on us too!!!! I'm sure that the baby will be here soon and you'll get to enjoy holding that precious little bundle!!!
