Off to Pennslyvania

Well we went and got Bree yesterday from the TRC and of course she is very tried. Wonder why??lol
We will be doing laundry and packing so that we can head off to PA. to spend Thanksgiving with Toni, Tim and the girls. Lee says he would like to be out by 7am that is alot better then what he said at the beginning of the week. He wanted to be on the road by 5am, no way on my birthday I have to get up that early.
We are wishing everyone a Happy, Blessed and safe Thanksgiving. Gobble, Gobble.

WOW 40 years ago today Lee and I said our "I DOS" . That went fast. Many ups and downs, good and bad, happy and sad but we have stuck together and I think we would do it all over again. Maybe listen to our parents a little more and save all the $$ we spent that we could have saved. hehe
I love you Lee.

Brianna Update

Good news!! The TRC just called to let us know that Brianna will be able to start her 2 week trial on Monday. She will be there 11/16 to 11/20 then a break the week of Thanksgiving and then back on 11/30 to 12/4 if she passes they will take her right into the program on 12/7.

OK New Post

Brianna went to the doctor yesterday and he released her. Kidney/bladder infections is gone legs look good. As soon as she got home she put on her jeans. She was a happy camper. I have a call into the TRC and waiting to hear back from them to see when Bree will get to go back for the one week assessment for J.O.B.S. Well most of the trees in our yard have lost their leaves they look so sad. Yes I have been busy with my crafty things our Harvest Fair here in Portland is Saturday, November 14th.
Once we hear from the TRC I will post again.
Everyone be safe at whatever you day but enjoy life.

Brianna update

Bree went back to the doctor on 10/19 and he was very pleased at how good her legs look. The one sore is really deep so it is taking a while to heal. The other two are almost completely healed. He will see her again on 11/2 for another recheck. Now if they are still looking good then she gets to start walking more and wearing pants again. She will start out in sweats and jogging pants then she will graduate to jeans. Once she has worn her jeans for a few days with a lot of walking and no rash then he will release her. Then we notify TRC and they put on at the top of the list to come back for another one week trial. They would do a one day assessment for JOBS to see if she can go into that program. If the assessment goes well then it is back on the list for an opening so she can do her trial period with them. Their trial period I believe is two weeks then if she passes that then I believe it is back on a list for an opening. This could go on forever. Lets hope not.

Just moving along

Well Brianna's legs are looking much better. The skin is peeling some from the infection. The meds they have her on for the bladder/kidney infection makes her drowsy other then that no hives which is awesome. Bree doesn't do well on antibiotics. She only has one spot that still looks yucky but each time I put the cream on it seems to slowly be improving. Thanks for all the prayers. Now if Bree will just take this situation and learn from it then that will be a good thing. She can't live on four or five hours of sleep a night. It only took a little over two weeks and her body started crashing. We will have to wait and see what happens once she gets back to TRC. We have already told her she WILL NOT be staying there over the week-end until she proves herself. We will pick her up on Friday right after her class and take her back Sunday evening. She is not a happy camper on that note but we told her once she has proven that she will go to her room no later then 9pm and take care of herself then we will slowly start letting her stay over the week-ends. We hate treating her like a child but if that is how she wants to act then SO BE IT.
Take care everyone.
