I have been so blessed lately even more than usual because the Lord is ALWAYS blessing me. Each day I live is a blessing. :o)
*
My new van has been a HUGE blessing!! I can't believe I've put 3,000 miles on it already and haven't even had it 2 months!! YIKES! lol But as my brother says, At least we don't have to worry about me breaking down anywhere especially on trips. Thank you Jesus!! I even got my oil changed already.
*
Then in April I was elected to be Chairperson for our CAC thru our county SELPA. Its thru our County Special Ed dept. I knew with my disability's and also disorganization I had to fix somethings and I NEEDED a desk to help get some things in order and keep track of stuff. But knew I didn't have it in my budget. BUT I prayed!! God hears our prayers. Saturday I was in the office here at the club and was just looking at their computer desks and there was two and they were slightly different. I was comparing the two. I figured one of them was like the one I would need or would work. Then Saturday night I was driving home with Adam and Noah and there on the side of the road was a computer desk and two bikes that said FREE!!! We got out and checked it out and the desk was in pretty good shape. The keyboard shelf would fall when pulled out but the cabinet doors shut great and it wasn't to scratched up. It was also still sturdy and not falling apart. BUT I didn't think I could get it in my minivan ESPECIALLY having two boys in there already and my walker.. I tried calling a few people but no one was up. I had to go home and prayed I could get that desk..
*
My brother came over the next morning to fix our swamp cooler (THANK YOU JESUS)! It was suppose to be 106 on Sunday. He has a Toyota so I knew it wouldn't fit in his car. He was going to do my weed eating also but he ran out of string right after he started.. :o( By the time he left, I had enough time to get showered and get ready for church.
*
Sunday night after my older boys were home, I went to go check out and see if the desk happen to still be there.. I kinda doubted it but prayed.. I drove by and THOUGHT I saw it so I did a u-turn.. I then didn't see it.. I decided to go into town even tho it was 11 pm and get me something to eat and drink. I kept telling the Lord how I NEEDED that desk or A DESK. All the way into town I kept looking for another desk.
*
I stopped at 7-11 and got me a tea and donuts and headed back home since I had only had 3 hrs sleep... I kept checking the road and when I got near where the desk HAD been I drove slow again... IT WAS THERE!!!!!!!!!! I pulled right over!!! With killing my back I got it in my van by laying the seats down. I brought it home and Nathan helped get it in the house! Last night I got it all set up and my computer and my back/leg are happier to not have to sit sideways on recliner to use computer. :o) Thank you Jesus!!
*
God also provided an extra financial blessing to help hold me this month. :o) He knows our needs and supplies our needs. Not always our WANTS but DOES supply our NEEDS.. It's just in HIS timing and not always OUR timing!! lol
*
God is always working in our lives even when we don't know it. We don't know how many times he may have saved our lives and we didn't even know it. Maybe he had stopped a car from hitting us or someone from attacking us and we didn't even know because Him and his angels are always watching over us.
*
God says if we don't praise him the rocks will cry out. I love to praise him!! He gives me breath and life and JOY!!
*
Psalm 150:6 Let everything that hath breath, Praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord!!

Thankful Thursday to you. :o)

Wow this week is almost over. And to think the boys school year is ALMOST over also! I think 3 more weeks! EEEKKK lol Adam graduates 8th grade on the 28th. The school should be scheduling his Transition IEP soon. I did tell his teacher last week and I also sent an email this week telling them I wanted a review IEP also because his goals aren’t working and his needs something to be done to help his grades. I met with the Special Ed director of the Charter School he will be going to high school (across the campus) and I think her and I will get along A LOT better!! I told her I’m the Parent Rep and NOW (voted in last week) Chair Person for the CAC (Community Advisory Committee) – for Special Ed and she was excited. The District Superintendant hadn’t told her about me.. So we have already discussed some things already and she gave me some moms numbers that I can contact and possibly help. She also told me she wants to be at Adam’s IEP meeting. BELIEVE ME she WILL be there!! :o) If she is also in charge of the charter elementary school, then I’m almost tempted to home school Noah and have her in charge of his special ed. Not sure if I’m that brave tho. Lol

This weekend we are FINALLY going away for FUN! Nathan was saying since we have the new van and its my birthday that we need to go visit my mom and friends. I found out that the church we used to go to in Roseville is having a Mother/Daughter Luncheon on Saturday (my birthday) so I asked my mom if she wants to go and she does! :o) So we will go to that!! We haven’t seen my mom I THINK since Thanksgiving. I can’t wait to see her and our friends. I wish it wasn’t a quick trip but at least it’s a trip. We go down tomorrow after school and come back Sunday after morning church service so we can be back for our service at 3.
*
WOW.. By the time we get back from our trip I will have already drove 2,000 miles on my van and only had it a MONTH!! On the 28th I’ve had my van a month and already drove it 2,000 miles!! I normally don’t drive that many miles.. Usually 2,000 in 2-3 months.. NOT 1 month!! I’m taking it in this coming week to get its oil changed. I don’t know when the dealership had its oil changed so I’m going to get it done now and start it out. I’m good at getting my cars oil changed every 3,000 miles. The boys just gave it a good wash today so its clean to go tho its suppose to rain tomorrow. Lol
*
The boys were suppose to see the dentist this week but for some reason I didn’t have it wrote down in my brain “calendar” so I didn’t know and when they called to remind me, I had to reschedule because I didn’t have the gas or money to drive there. So its for the 20th of May which isn’t a LOT better because its still near the end of the month but at least not the LAST week. I MIGHT call back and make it after school gets out..
*

HEY PLEASE pray for this baby!!http://kayleighannefreeman.blogspot.com/ She only weighed 1 lb 1 oz when she was born 3 months premature. She is now 10 months old and STILL is in the hospital. She has almost died a few times and has over come but now she had surgery April 17th and something happened which they aren’t sure which it is but part of her brain is “dead” and she isn’t fully waking up and according to the doctors she has no control of her arms, legs and brain. Her brain stem works but the middle doesn’t. Then tonight her parents got a call saying she is getting swelling of the brain. She has a brother and sister who have only seen her a few times. Her name is Kayleigh.
Thanks. She only weighs like 9 lbs.
