I'm Alive!!!

Yes, Mercede is okay. Thanks for your prayers and thoughts. She hasn't had anymore spells and actually the only reason she wouldn't be okay now is for doing this mess..







This is what happens when Mercede has nothing to do. School was out last Friday and I had a 10 hour work day and Child Husband was home with the kids. This only happens this bad when Child Husband is not watching the kids. Mercede took everything out of her closet, everything out of drawers and anything else that was around. She can't stand to leave pillow cases on pillows and even went into my room and took mine off, as I can see them in this picture. So I would say that Mercede is feeling fine and that prozac isn't really affecting her that much! lol

In other news, I have been gone over a week because I had some mad days at work, then my internet company had some issues and it took them over three days to fix the problem. I just haven't had time to get on the computor. I did check my email a few times at the office but was out of time for anything else.

Good news is that Ben left the hospital a few days ago! Thank you so much for all your prayers. He is done with his chemo and still needs many prayers as there are still so many challenges that he could face. Aysha was running up to everyone in the store telling them how God had healed Ben. It is the best news ever!

My SIL Scott could use your prayers, we just got a call tonight that she was in the hospital. Her arm and face were going numb and her blood pressure super high. I was just in her town on Saturday and took these pictures with her kids.

This is 9 month old Ireland getting a bath. Look at them eyes.



This is the coolest tree. The kids all loved it.



My BIL Devin says he is riding a rhinoceros.


Last is a picture I took last week of Scott with her two youngest kids she pops out kids like a rabbit , she was having a hard time holding them. I should of made her hold all three at one time.



I've got a super busy work week and I'm going to try catching up with everyone when I can. Again, thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

    OMG I was starting to worry about you, Girl...thought you might have dumped me, LOL I've missed you:(

    I'm sorry to hear about your SIL, I've got high BP myself, but never (thank goodness) had any issues like that!! Good luck to her!!

    Glad to hear Mercede is doing good, and from the looks of that room, she is actually doing better than good, huh? LOL

    And that is great news about Ben:)

    That tree is something else, what cool pix!!

    LOL at what Mercede did to her room and your pillows! But at least she's doing better. It must be nice getting back to 'normal'. lol

    Glad to hear about Ben...will keep those positive vibes going.

    I will also hold your sil Scott in my thoughts. Symptoms are weird and I wonder if they're connected. Well I guess they could both be symptoms of something but it doesn't sound like one caused the other...know what I mean? Keep us updated. Also, what are the names of her kids? I love that the baby is Ireland. It makes me curious about the other kids' names. I'm weird that way...along with many many other ways! lol

    HUGS to you hun....I've been slightly MIA myself and I definately think of you and miss you when you're not around. HUGS
