Hey, guys. I've been crazy busy as of late. Hubby and I are still trying to get completely well from whatever bug seems to be roaming around now. I swear it seems that as soon as we think we have it licked, it comes right back! We've already taken 2 round of antibiotics. This last round really feels more like a cold with a nagging cough. I suppose working in a place where kids come to be tutored really doesn't help! ;) Hubby seems to be on his way to recovery with the right combination of meds (finally!), and is making slow progress every day. We can really tell the difference in how he feels. I'm really glad he's doing a bit better on that front!
Aside from that, we are doing okay. Son is following his directions from cps and doing what they ask of him. We have one hearing in a week to make sure cps is doing what the judge ordered them to do, and one the following week in front of the judge. We've been told from an experienced friend that cps and the legal system (in Texas) are very slow, but to hang in there because it will work out in the long run. I'm really tired of all the waiting, but there's nothing else I can do BUT wait right now. We still see grandson once a week and come running when she needs something for him. Other friends say we shouldn't do that as it looks as if we are the "rescuers" with none of the benefits. I don't know. If it's for grandson, I do everything I can...
I finally bought my ticket for my annual trip to Indiana for Spring Break to visit my family. I actually considered not going since I've been ill for so long. I wasn't sure I'd feel like going - or that I'd be good company since I'm so exhausted from it all. My mom convinced me, though, that a week off away from the house to just sit around and visit would do me good. And we know that Mom is always right!! ;) I'll be leaving 3 weeks from today.
Grandson turned 8 months old on Valentine's Day! I know I'm a bit behind on all that, but I'll try to update with pics soon!
I'm so glad it's Friday! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

You're glad it's Friday? How did you know I was coming today? *blush* Oh, I see, you meant FriDAY. LOL Full of myself, aren't I?
I seem to have caught some sort of bug as well. I'm on antibiotics but after 8 days didn't seem to be working so the dr. put me on steroids for two days. Amazing the difference it made. So I'm feeling a bit more chipper now. I hope that continues. What ever that bug is, it's been rough. Sounds a lot like what y'all have going on over there.
Hope you're completely recovered soon and raring to go for your trip. :)
*hugs*
Oh gal, get better soon - especially with the trip coming up.
I only ever fly to see my family. We dont do fancy vacations; just our cabin in the woods and then drive or fly to PA to be with family. Those are the MOST relaxing, to me. I love to sit on my mom*s sun porch and just read magazines or sit with her and chat over a cup of coffee.
Aww, I hope you both get well soon.
And it's easy for people to say to you not to help the other grandmother out when it's not their grandson you're talking about!
Plus, even if you bail her out, in the end, even if it gets you nowhere and helps her win, it's not the baby's fault the situation is what it is and it's not right to punish him because of it.
You are doing right by him. I lost hope so many times with Joselynn and the waiting was so very hard to deal with but we've come such a long way since then so I know it's doable.
Hang in there Tammy. You can do this. Enjoy your vacation when you go. You deserve it. Truly. <3
Sending hugs and love...and a hint not to check for ***stowaways***
(I may have to join you on that trip)....!!!
