I have been SUPER busy with him and Grande and Tall are leaving on Thursday together for college! They are both going to the same college for the first time! Grande went to a community college for 2 years and so now him and Tall are heading out together. Their college is only an hour away but I can't imagine going from 3 kids to 1!! It is going to be difficult and Short is going to miss them as well. I have been running around trying to get everything they need and that is a task in itself because everything I have to get 2 of everything....my checkbook is being emptied by the minute! It took me awhile to get their student loans figured out and I think that is all set. Whew.....one of these days I will be able to take a breather!
Trying to prepare myself for Thursday....keep me in mind and know that I won't have a dry eye all day.....
Glad to hear your dad is home- that in itself is an improvement! And hang in there Thur!
ReplyDeleteWonderful news that your dad is home! Oh! how hard to prepare two children for college. I will be praying.
ReplyDeleteMany blessings
I agree, having your Dad home is an improvement. Hopefully, now that he is in his own surroundings, he will gain strength and pounds!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on sending your two boys to college, I will be thinking about you. At least you still have Short at home!
Take care, my friend.
I am happy your dad is home...see if you can get him Ensure to give him some calories...they have all types and for diabetics too....keep your head up...and your wallet will eventually replenish...not sure yet how it feels to have kids going to college...but I bet its hard...I will be thinking of you.....
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to see an update on your Dad. I'm sorry though to hear he's still not on the mend yet. Hopefully, now that he's home he will perk right up.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kat
Home is the medicine with prayers on the side. You provide home I'll provide the prayers. So happy for him & you that he's home.
ReplyDeleteI am glad your Dad is home. My Dad drank something when he was sick called "resource". It's like ensure but I think it's triple the caloric intake. We're in Canada so not sure if it's where you are. But thought I'd mention it. I swear it's what turned my Dad around for so long. And he liked the taste of it too. So that was a bonus.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with Grande and Tall. Mine are both doing University this year but local. They have both informed me they are going away next year though so yikes. And daughter is joining the army. Double yikes.
I'll be thinking about you this week.
Oh, I am so glad that you're dad is doing better! All the best for him and you and all the ones you love, Java!!
ReplyDeleteWow, lot of adjustments going on in your life. Hope your dad improves with time.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your Dad is home. I believe people can heal better when they are in their own home.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine getting two of them ready for college at the same time! I will be thinking of you tomorrow...
Sounds like your life has been very stressful lately. I took a several month break from blogging due to four surgeries between my husband and I, my father's death and my son's wedding.
ReplyDeleteIt will be hard to leave your son's at college. I hope they adjust well and enjoy their school year.
Good luck to you!
Glad your Dad is home and hopefully that helps to strengthen him. Today, is a rough day for you, both boys leaving for college. Have a good cry after they leave and then remember you raise them to fly!!!
ReplyDeleteAw> Your poor Dad and you too. I feel awful watching that happen and not being fast enough or able to run to stop it from happening. Glad he is able to be home now. Your poor Mom too. I will be thinking of you this week. We had our own hard summer with my Mom. It was beyond difficult while she was ill and in a different city too. Now she is here and getting a bit better.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear your dad is home! Wishing you and your boys the best with their new college experiences! Deb @ RaisingFigureSkaters.com
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear your dad is home. The only advice I can offer is to take advantage of all offers and programs like physical therapy and visiting nurses.
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot happening at your place. Just happy to hear your Father is home. I know you will be said when your babe heads off to school. Sending hugs always xo
ReplyDeletegood grief..type o..sad not said. smooches
ReplyDeleteSo glad your dad is home and praying for improvement each day for him! It is really hard to have your kids leave home. But my husband and I got used to having the house to ourselves real fast! LOL
ReplyDeleteI have been praying for your Dad and your family. Home is a good start.
ReplyDeleteI remember going from 4 to 1. It does get easier. It is also so much fun when they come home for the holidays! I will think of you and continue the prayers.

I'll be thinking of you on Thursday. I can't imagine having only one child left at home either. I'll be praying for your dad's recovery.
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss this??? I am SO GLAD he is home! CONGRATULATIONS to your dad! I am so relieved! That is totally wonderful! I am sure the weight wil come back on! Everybody loses weight in the hospital with all that nasty food! (Maybe I should use that as a diet technique?) Don't worry, he will gain it right back and it will be a-ok! The most important thing is that he is home now! YAY!
ReplyDeleteOkay, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check your email because I am sending you a very important message in a couple of minutes okay??? I need a favor, or I am hoping you wil do me a favor. Please look and read java?
I'm so glad that your daddy was able to come home. I will continue to pray for his healing and for your daughter-heart. Seeing our daddies not well hurts for sure.
ReplyDeleteAlso, hugs to you as your babies go off to school. {{{hugs}}}
Java
ReplyDeleteso glad your daddy is home *we heal better at home*
I will keep you in my prayers as well as the kiddos

Hugs n Blessings

I truly believe everything happens for a reason & maybe the Lord saved your Dad from something worse when the dog ran out & made your Dad fall. Praise be. Now plus you have two of your babies leaving you & only one child around, but maybe that was planned too so you'd be able to have more time for your Dad. You see everything happens for s reason. I believe you're a strong girl, so keep your chin up & maybe it's a good thing that your Dad lost a few pounds. Everything happens for a reason love! It's not good to be overweight at his age right! Now get him walking & tone him up! All the ladies will be making eyes at him soon! Uh-oh Where's your Mommy? She better keep her eyes on that handsome devil! lol hugs Java you & your family are in my prayers. Smile :)
