Well---I guess all I do is whine---
The 4 littles have been sick for about a week and a half. Today Mark was tested for whooping cough--the dr. assumes he has it---she also assumes the 3 younger kids have it or will get it---test results will be in on Tues--so no holiday for us. (coughing spasms can last for 10 weeks... )
Amy is having more conclusive tests for Lupus on Wednesday---hives, wheezing, and shortness of breath are with her a lot of the time---the epi-pen is our friend.
20 year old at home ds is causing much stress---constantly
Our Bishop keeps changing where Danny will be going to the seminary---right now it is St. Johns college while he stays at Dunwoodie. But that may change again.
If NY state doesn't pass its budget hubby's pay check will stop.......
I think I have had a stress headache for a month---these poor kids need a better momma....

Praying Joann, any one of those things would knock anyone for a loop.

You have you're hands full. Praying things go well. Is there someone who can help? Maybe even with a meal or two?

Joann, your children need YOU and no one else for a mother. You have a lot on your plate, for sure.
I'm adding prayers for positive resolutions to these issues.

Thank you all for the prayers....
Mark seems to be feeling better, he is still coughing, but it is no worse. Maybe the tests for whooping cough will come back negative.
We are staying around the house for the holiday just in case we are carrying around that nasty bug. The kids so look forward to the parade and party afterwards I wish I could think of some fun for here at home.
The other stressers are still hanging on. I just get frozen sometimes and can't seem to function very well, but I feel all your prayers and they are a great big help.
Thanks again--I pray for all of you!
