HOT HOT HOT
Wow....I finally heard those words I longed to hear! Grandma actually said she was warm. I took her to the bank today so she could close her checking and savings accounts and take my name off them. It's not at all that I WANTED to have control of her accounts but I am very fearful at what is going to happen. I have been keeping her checkbook balanced weekly since she has been here. Every penny is accounted for but she said I have made it confusing????? She accused me of writing checks out of her account that she didn't tell me, which was certainly NOT the truth. I would NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS do that!! So, I told her that she needed to find someone else to do her bookeeping if she couldn't trust me. She informed me that she could do it herself. She had two checks to write for bills and she had such a mess that she asked me to come straighten it out for her. She had written one check in the amount of the previous check number. She then put the bill in the envelope, sealed it, stamped it and mailed it, leaving the check in her checkbook. She really gets confused these days.
Another scary thing is her drivers license. They are out of date on her birthday, this Thursday. We went by the drivers license office and she tried to take the eye test and could not pass the traffic sign part of it. The girl sent her home to study. If she can't pass that, she can't get her license! OH PLEASE PRAY THAT SHE CAN"T PASS THAT!!! I would NOT want to be anywhere around if she started driving again. I know she feels very limited by her situation but honestly she is in no state to drive.
She is still keeping her car. We let one battery ruin because there was no need to drive the car. Hopefully, she will soon come to the realization that there is really no reason for her to keep that car and pay insurance on it.
The weather has been extremely hot and expected to be so this week also. I picked up Tabatha to take her to the church so she could get on the bus to go to camp and the smell of the kids already there BEFORE the week begins was not good!!! I remember the first camp week that Shawn went. He was in the third grade and very self-concious about changing clothes in front of anyone. So he wore his bathing suit under his clothes and then wore the same outfit ALL WEEK LONG!!! I can assure you that when I picked him up the smell was unbearable!!!!! BTW, it wasn't that he didn't have clothes to change into. I was quick to thank the couselor for what a great job he did since Shawn's clothes were packed neatly in his suitcase still.... AND he didn't lose anything!!!
Maleah went one week and I think it was a horrifying experience. One week of bugs and heat to a sissy is like an eternity in hell!! (Right, Mal)
Now Ryan was another story. He loved camp. He even worked out there several years. He loved getting dirty and stinky and taking chances with bugs and lizards and snakes and horses just to get to swim every day.
Living Springs Camp has been going a long time, and many children have found their way to the Savior through that ministry. May the Lord bless the couselors and camp director and cooks and speaker this week as they minister to these needy children.
