Accidents Happen

Yesterday afternoon, I was in my very first car accident.  

I am having flashbacks every time I close my eyes.  

I had just picked up my neighbor from having xrays done on her neck and shoulder area too... Myself, her, A and friends 2 boys were on our way home.  There was a Somalian gentleman that was in the OUTSIDE lane... He literally turned LEFT in front of me, not merged, TURNED.   I slammed on my brakes, and slammed into his driver back door. If I hadn't hit my brakes.. I would have killed him!!!

My neighbor hurt her neck and got whiplash. But she had a seizure, so they had to take her to the hospital by ambulance. 
Thankfully all the children are ok. Her boys got a couple bumps, A is fine. I hurt my back a little. Got a massage yesterday afternoon a couple hours afterwards.  That helped a little, but by last night, I got really stiff again. 
I hurt pretty good today :'( 

Almost a year later....

Welcome back to me!! Lol     its been a long time since I have had a computer to type a blog on.    What is going on in our world?!!



Well, on Dec 13 2014   CG and I finally got married after being together for 7yrs. 

A started preschool in Sept.  Has been the most amazing experience for her. She also graduated Occupational Therapy for her Sensory Processing Disorder. :)    We have our down days, but she is excelling far beyond what I thought she ever would .

C  started a new charter school for 7th grade DREAM academy.  Fully project based. A few weeks ago, she decided she no longer wants to attend there. Lack of structure and learning is a big thing that hinders her.   So here in a couple weeks after spring break, she will be transferring to the middle school here in Willmar, and hopefully will be able to catch up and graduate on to 8th grade by the end of the school year.   Its going to be hard on her, but she needs it.  

We are still here in our little townhouse. As much as we want to move and get our own, more open space, its hard financially.   CG lost his job just before Christmas, and we have been relying solely on my babysitting income to make it through.  Thankfully we were able to pay everything off and ahead a bit with our taxes which really, really helped us!! 


Tomorrow, my C turns 13! HOLY CRAP SHE IS A TEENAGER!!!!     Where are the years going??   She is independent, mouthy, yet helpful when we need her. :)

I hear her and her sleepover friends giggling upstairs, so I suppose I had better figure out what I am feeding the gaggle of girls that are in my house for lunch and start ushering them home.
