My life update......

I know it's been awhile since I posted. Yes, my computer is still crashed, but I'm gradually learning to live without it. I'll try to bring everyone up to date in one post.............
First of all CONGRATULATIONS to Austin for graduating high school. GOOD LUCK AUSTIN, we're VERY proud of you.

Second, Lois's husband had to go to Turkey for a couple weeks for the military. She needed a babysitter, and since I couldn't do it (We work same shift) Ashley took the job.

So after 11 days of making forts and castles, lighting LOTS of sparklers, watching Alvin and the Chipmunks two to three times a day (Ashley even started dreaming about them), sitting through a tornado, having last min "Do you mind staying till 3 AM, and dealing with a 9 year old that REALLY missed his parents Ashley was ready to have this job over with.

Although most nights she couldn't stay till 3, I would go over after work and send her home. I spent 4 nights this past week with Lois and Philip. I would tease Lois and say... "Yeah, we can stay up all night swap manly stories, and in the morning I'm making Waffles." (That's from Shrek if you didn't know). Their couch is the most COMFORTABLE couch I've EVER slept on.... Note to self: Find out where they got it.
It was strange to wake up in the morning with a little face in front of mine whispering "Miss Angie? Are you awake?" That's one thing I have to hand to his parents, they have him put Miss in front of our names. So it's always Miss Angie and Miss Ashley. I'm impressed.
I've spent more time with Lois and Philip these last couple weeks than I ever have. Whether it started with a phone call saying "Miss Angie, could you please come over and spend time with us?" or eating breakfast before taking Philip to school, or even going to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. I have to admit it has been a blast.

Oh, the B2??? Works!!!!! Had a small headache the other day, but I KNOW it's due to lack of sleep these few weeks. Normally I would've had a HUGE one (perhaps a migraine) last Friday during the SEVER storms we had, but NOTHING.

Speaking of storms...... The storm hit K while I was at work. Completely FLOODED the street beside the factory, and two cars stalled. The water was up to the car door windows.
My sister, Who was babysitting, was scared when the tornado sirens went off. My dad, who had to get up at 4 to go to work, DROVE to Lois's and sat in the cubby hole under the stairs till Lois got home from work (11:15). Philip was just as scared as Ashley was, and dad's presence helped put their minds at ease. However, how he ever got in the little bitty crawl space with Ashley and Philip I will NEVER know.

Since I wasn't sure what the road conditions were, I crashed on Lois's couch one last night......
Brian, Lois's husband, came home Sunday night, and I can't even imagine that father and son reunion.
