When It Rains, It Pours

So as of today, I'm offically back OFF the dating horse. (SNIFF! SNIFF!)

And, as if that wasn't bad enough, Autumn and I almost died on the way home tonight b/c my tires are almost bald and it was raining. But, Heavenly Father was looking out for me and I KNOW there were angels surrounding my car so neither Autumn or I were hurt. I was on a two lane road, so there was just the lane I was in and oncoming traffic. I was just driving along when all of a sudden the car skidded off to the right shoulder, I fishtailed and brought the car back into my lane and then it went off into the oncoming traffic lane (we were so blessed that no one was coming) and then down into a grassy area where we finally came to a stop. My heart has never beat so fast in my life. I got out of the car to check the tires, b/c I thought for sure that a tire had blown w/ how much we were fishtailing all over the road, but the tires were all in tact. A guy driving by stopped to ask if we were OK and I said we were and then got back into my car and burst into tears and said a silent prayer of gratitude.

Anyways, guess what I'm going to do at lunch tomorrow...that's right, go get some new tires! Does anyone happen to know where I can also buy some self esteem? LOL! :D

Your self-esteem will grow when you don't have people around you that make you feel like crap. Like, you know who. Glad your moving on.

Oh no Lisa! I'm so glad you & Autumn are ok! What a scary adventure, I would freak! I'm sorry about your guy situation as well. I know that is a-whole-nother set of emotions to deal with. I hope you're ok and have the support you need to work through it.

I won't be in the Dallas area to live at all this summer. Cade didn't feel comfortable selling against Berrett. However, we are going to try to visit to make Sheila's wedding! It would be so fun to get together for lunch while we're there! I hope things start to pick up for ya, and that you can spread that cheer that you always have! Miss ya!

Aw I am sorry about the dating. Never fun!

Potty training is a pain. Is that bad to say? It is just a lot of time and work. I stayed home for 3 days straight putting her on that potty anytime she wanted and reading her books. I had a sticker chart for sitting, peeing, pooping. I also gave her one treat (jelly bean) when she went pee and two when she went poop. She still struggles with the poop thing and I still feel like we are in the bathroom all the time and I am panicked in public for very long. Overall she has done well, but I am exhausted :) I guess I am getting a god work out running to the restroom in all the stores but she is scared to go in the "big" potty (i put an adapter on ours). I am still trying to figure out if this was the best way...I'll let you know as time goes on. Good Luck!
