PLAYING CATCH UP

MAY THE 18TH WAS A FRIDAY ALL MY KIDS WERE SICK SO I DIDN'T HAVE TO GO TO WORK. I WENT SHOPPING AT THE THRIFT STORE AND LATER ON IN THE DAY I WENT TO THE RIVER AND SPENT THE NIGHT AT THE TRAILER. MIKE CAME UP THE NEXT DAY WHEN HE GOT OFF WORK. AND THEN ABOUT 1 :30 DEBBIE ASKED IF COULD COME GET IZZY HER DADDY WAS ON THE WAR PATH. SO I WENT DOWN AND GOT HER AND SHE SPENT THE NIGHT WITH US SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE TRAILER. MIKE AND IZZY WENT FISHING OFF THE BACK OF THE BOAT AND I HEARD ALL ABOUT "THE BIG FISH THAT GOT AWAY" MIKE TOLD ME IT WAS A BASS AND THE MOUTH WAS SO BIG HE COULD'VE PUT HIS WHOLE FIST IN IT. I TOLD HIM THAT WAS A LIKELY STORY BUT A COUPLE ON THE PIER VERIFIED THEIR STORY . SUNDAY MORNING KATLIN AND MADELINE WOKE ME AND IZZY UP CALLING WANTING US TO COME PICK THEM UP IN IRONDALE (THE ROAD THAT RUNS ALONG BY SAM'S ) THEY WANTED TO GO TO CHURCH. SO I DROVE ALL THE WAY FROM GUNTERSVILLE TO IRONDALE TO PICK THEM UP AND TAKE THEM TO CHURCH. WE WERE LATE BUT WE MADE IT. THE FOLLOWING THURSDAY NIGHT IZZY SPENT THE NIGHT WITH ME AND FRIDAY MORNING ME AND IZZY WENT TO PELL CITY AND GOT MIKE'S CHECK AND I WENT TO THE CHIROPRACTOR MIKE MET US AT EAST BUFFET FOR LUNCH AND MY WORK CALLED AND SAID THERE WASN'T ENOUGH KIDS FOR ME NOT TO COME TO WORK. SO I HAD THE DAY OFF AGAIN ON A FRIDAY. IZZY SPENT THE NIGHT AGAIN BUT DEBBIE SAID SHE HAD TO BE HOME BEFORE NOON. I TOOK HER TO DEBBIE AT NOON AND ABOUT 2 HOURS LATER SHE HAD ME COME GET HER SO SHE COULD SPEND THE NIGHT TO GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY MORNING. WE WENT TO CHURCH AND I KEEP HER TIL AFTER CHURCH SUNDAY NIGHT THEN I TOOK HER TO DEBBIE AND MONDAY MORNING WE WENT AND GOT HER AT 9AM TO GO TO THE CHURCH MEMORIAL DAY PICNIC. IZZY HAD A BLAST SHE GOT TO PLAY WITH HER FRIENDS AND IT WAS A NICE DAY NOT TO HOT. SHE SPENT THE NIGHT AGAIN AND TUESDAY SHE STAYED WITH MOM WHEN I HAD TO GO TO WORK . I GOT HER AFTER WORK AND DEBBIE PICKED HER UP ABOUT 7PM. WEDNESDAY I WENT TO THE DOCTOR HE SAID I WAS DOING GOOD AND MY BLOOD PRESSURE WAS GOOD. MOM WENT TO THE DOCTOR TOO. SHE GOT HER STITCHES OUT AND THE DOCTOR SAID SHE WAS DOING GOOD. SHE CAN DO BASICALLY WHAT SHE WANTS TO NOW JUST DON'T BEND OVER TOO FAR AND USE COMMON SENSE IF IT HURTS DON'T DO IT. I DIDN'T GO TO CHURCH BECAUSE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY I HAD TO WORK FROM 7AM TO 6PM . I WANTED TO BE REFRESHED. I WORKED THURSDAY AND TODAY AND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF AT 5:30PM. I GOT SOME PICTURES AT THE CHURCH PICNIC BUT MIKE HAS GOT MY CAMERA WITH HIM AT WORK IN PELL CITY SO I WILL HAVE TO POST THEM LATER.
