I'll start by talking about my cousin. My aunt broke the news to me yesterday that she's going to be having a triple bypass surgery this Friday. Her dad has a bad heart, so we figured she just inherited it from him. Come to find out, her heart is too far gone and surgery isn't possible. Now she's going to be sent to STL to see a heart specialist and be put on the transplant list. It's unreal -- I honestly don't even believe it. She's only 35, too damn young to have this happen to her. And aside from her being diabetic, she's relatively healthy.
One of her doctors in TN think she may have been born with a bad heart, who knows.
Now time to move onto my mom. I'm sure I've echoed this a million times, my grandma raised me my entire life, so she's my mom. Well my mom got into trouble -- not going into details -- about 10 years ago and got put on probation. Well she ended up moving and didn't tell her PO and she got arrested yesterday. My aunt is going to Perryville tomorrow to spend the night with my bio-mom so that she can go to the hearing Friday. I know she's not going to get out. Everyone, including LaVaughn and myself, have put in money for her bail. Surprisingly, so have a couple other people.
I feel sick about all of this, especially since Thanksgiving is next week, not to mention we just ordered her some gifts and those will be here in the next couple days. It's going to be terrible.
Now I need to try and focus on something for the next couple days, like sewing. Have I mentioned that I've sewn every day for the past week? I didn't sew yesterday, that's because I had to work. I've officially sewn and sold ALL of our old fleece!! I'm super excited about that. Even more excited by the fact that all of our Joann fleece arrived yesterday and our fleece from Gini arrived today. I'm going to be a sewing and cutting fool for the next few days -- hopefully that will keep my mind distracted.
We also got our mealworms that I ordered yesterday. I ended up feeding the gliders at least 10 worms each -- except for Tyler, Declan, Neal and Cas, they only wanted yoggies and maybe like two worms. Half of the worms in this order were dead, so I need to power feed everyone for the next couple days.
I met Angie at work yesterday before I went in to pick up LaVaughn's birthday thing that she made her. This was before the terrible storms that we had, before everything flooded (including our road) and before the electricity went off in the store, twice! Anyways, it's really cute, Angie is so creative! LaVaughn and I went to town a little while ago and picked out a couple things for her, I think she'll like them. They're supposed to come down Saturday, we shall see.
I didn't do much else today, aside from sew and take some pictures -- even of Norman! I guess I'll leave it at that. Hopefully there's no more bad news after today.
Love & Peace
