visit day

Hi,
Today our little girl had to go downtown for a visit. Very tough for me to put her in a stranger's car (case worker)and send her off. What must she be thinking? She came back in 3 hours and we loved her up a lot.
Andy Bob is getting excited about Special Olympic bowling that starts next week. It's all he's talking about. It doesn't matter that my niece is getting married Saturday. It pales in comparison.
Carrie caught Andy and our little princess arguing and Princess hit Andy's leg so Andy shoved her! He had to come in and explain what went on and he told me SHE started it! Oh boy! Luckily he was gentle but I had to explain why we don't hit little people. I wish we could convince more grown-ups that these are the rules and no exceptions!
My husband has a degenerative bone disease and gets treatments every 4-6 weeks. It's and IV TX that takes 4 hours and makes him very tired and sick. It costs $12,000 each time too! Luckily our insurance pays every time.
I hate to see him so miserable. He's only 46 and has been on full disability for 12 years. When people see him they just see a guy who's young, 6'8" tall and on some days he looks normal. People unknowingly make comments like, "Boy I wish I could retire ay your age!" "What a slacker!", etc.
It's difficult to go to a bible study where we have to meet new people and we have to explain our odd family and people always ask, "What do you do for a living?" or "Got any grandkids?"
"What do your kids do for a livin g?" I don't like joining stuff but that makes it worse.
I'd bewtter get this little love muffin ready for bed now.
Love, Janly
