Update on Me:

I have been assessed by the chiropractor. They’ve consulted us. Now we wait for me to be adjusted which unfortunately will be after the holidays. They couldn’t get me worked in beforehand. It totally sucks that my entire holiday has been messed up because of this accident. I can’t do the things I need to do because of being in pain. Just thankful it wasn’t much worse than it’s been. 

T Loves 🥰 His New Shirt!

T got a Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Adidas Shirt in the mail yesterday and he loves it. 

He can’t wait to see the new movie. He had to miss seeing it with his teammates because of his being sick. 

T Working Hard…

Took this pic of T reeling the hose while helping his dad on a commercial client job. He loves working with his dad. He loves to learn all that he can about our business. I love my guys so much and I love watching them work together.  Father’s being involved with their sons makes such a huge impression on them that they will carry with them all of their lives.  Building a father and son relationship is about building a legacy for generations to come. A legacy that is not only built by them but by God as their central focus. Keeping God first and foremost in all they do. We are always cherishing the moments. 

Won’t Be Long….

Won’t be long before T is as tall as his dad. I expect he will surpass him in 2023…LOL!  I got this shot just before they went off to work on a commercial project together.  I’m so glad T is finally old enough to help his dad on projects.  It’s good for Scot to have a helper😊. 

Accident Yesterday…

So yesterday this happened. I was completely stopped at a stop light in traffic and was rear ended by someone not paying any attention to their driving🤦🏻‍♀️. I was the only one in the van because T was doing his last day of drivers ed class online. Go figure 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ right?!  I’ve been with T all week for his classes and was there until he finished his test then had to go for an appointment. I’ve been listening and watching videos with him and driving even more alert and focused because of being involved in the classes all week. After several hours of being checked at the hospital to make sure there was nothing really wrong with me I was released with knowing that all the pain I’m having is just muscle pain. I’m slow moving with all the muscle soreness and very thankful that it wasn’t any worse than it was. The van was drivable so Scot drove it home.  The guy that hit me was not paying any attention to his driving. He’s blessed that I’m not like most people and how I’ve seen folks acting at the scene of accidents. Was I mad 😠?  You bet. Acting out in anger doesn’t help matters though. I was calm. I got checked out. I’m thankful to God for His protection in the situation. I have some medicine to help with the muscle pain. All will be good and God will take care of everything. 

Everyone hear me out!!!  Focus on your driving at all times!!!  As they say in drivers ed, “The life you save may be your own!”  Set your cell phones to silence when you are driving!!!  Nothing is so important that it cannot wait until you are stopped and no longer driving. With the technology that we have today in vehicles there is absolutely no reason that your face should be looking anywhere else but on the road!!!  If you want to change a radio station wait until you are stopped!!!  If you wanna change the temperature in the vehicle because you are too cold/hot wait until you are stopped!!!

I drove commercially for many years. I’ve personally seen some really bad situations that didn’t have to happen. Almost all accidents happen because drivers are not focused on their driving. Case in point what happened to me yesterday. Folks focus on the road. Set a good example for your kids to follow as well. Let’s face it our kids hear what we say but see what we do. More than ever I’ve been more focused when on the road because all too often almost every car I pass the diver has their cell phone in their hand and that = being distracted. It’s so very important that we teach our kids not to be that person!!!  That is all!

T’s 1st Attempt…

Here’s T’s score from his first attempt. So proud of this kid. He’s worked hard for that score. 

Last Day of online DMV Classroom….

Looking pretty handsome for his last of the classroom portion of Drivers ED. He has two chances to pass his test today. If he doesn’t pass he will have to take the class again at our cost. Praying that he passes with flying colors. Pray 🙏  in agreement with us. He’s been doing good on all his quizzes this week and there has been a ton of them. #homeschooldmvclass #longweekonline 

T’s Doctor Visit Today…

T went yet again to the doctor today. She said that he has a severe sinus infection and has put him on such a strong antibiotic that he has to take a probiotic with it. Oh joy for him. The antibiotic should take care of his infection but because it can cause diarrhea he has to take a probiotic with it. This kid just wants to be completely well and be able to train and be with his team and coach. To top it all off he’s gonna have to miss Thanksgiving in Kentucky because we can’t risk taking anything to his grandparents or his cousin who hasn’t been home from the hospital for very long. Working on making sure he is well for Christmas with them three weeks after Thanksgiving.  He can’t wait to get up there and spend quality time with the family. He so loves every chance that he gets to spend time with them. 

Christmas Came Early for T….

T’s Maw Maw (aka my mom) got him these new running shoes that he needed for training as an early Christmas gift. He can’t wait to be able to use them when he does his body coach training and running once he’s well enough to actually train. They came in the mail yesterday. Thank you Maw Maw. He loves them.

Just Because…

I got this pic the other day of T doing his schoolwork and I wanted to post this just because I can…LOL!  

He’s doing so good in school this year. He’s making straight A’s so far. This week he’s not doing anything but the Drivers Ed classroom portion of DE. That is keeping us more busy than actual school does…LOL!

Anyhow have a great rest of your day!
