Sick

The title parity much said it all. We been sick. Sick in spirit, then in body. Started Thursday with the boys having a light cough. peeked on Sunday at least for Nathen with a visit to the ER a 104 temp and bloody noise. 5 hours latter we get to go home with him lots of meds and poor things got pneumonia. Devon gets hit next then me and James. All weak we battle high fevers and horrid cough. Today we are all on the mend. Boys played outside in back. Still keeping them at a slower pace, but we are not cottages and doing better. Hoping on Sat we will get to go to Niki. Missing her.

Spirit wise we are growing with God and his grace. I know for thous who don't believe this is cheesy. But it is a place I draw great strength when times like these come about. That and my friends and Family. Val is still in the same state. Only now she has an infection and fever. My heart aces for my Dad every day. There is so little to do. His birthday was last Sunday. He is 55 years young. He didn't even want me to wish him happy birthday.

Every thing ells boils down to money. We are scrapping the pantry and freezer these days. Only buying fresh fruits and veggies as needed. All others are coming from my stock pile. And James thought I was nuts to do that :) But with the Roof needing fixed, the car brakes, and all us getting sick and the co pay for meds alone yickes. We are pinching the pennies tall the end of next month and that's if work picks up. Oh I pray it does.

Things are doing better. We have our health coming back and with out health insurance we would have had to pay much much more. The roof is fixed all be it on credit. it is still fixed and the car too. James job may be slow, but he has a job so I will not complain on that. Doing what we can to look on the bright side. Good friends. And lots of love it will all end well in the end.
