OUR FAMILY CHAOS

Well Carrie and Guy made it home.... to Mom's. They came home bearing pictures of there house. They were not supposed to get in, but they went to there area and asked a police officer if they could get in and he said you Want to see your business (shaking his head yes) right!! And they said Yeah!!! So they ran back to there car and drove in. The pictures they brought home said it didn't do it justice.. They were unbelievable. Everything is ruined! Some of the toys that were Carries were up on high shelves in Olivia's room they were safe, but other than that everything was ruined. Carrie has a few collective plates on the walls that can be washed and that is about it. The furniture was displaced all over the house. But weird stuff was still sitting in places like a picture frame was still sitting in the window in the kitchen. Crazy stuff like that -- but the refrigerator was laying in the floor. The couch was in the dining room and stuff that was in the dining room was in the sunroom -- total opposite side of the house. The ottoman that was in the living room was in the very back of the house. A Barbie doll that was in Olivia's room in the box was hung up out of the box in Olivia's bed that was upside down. On the chase lounge in her room her Madam Alexander doll was originally sitting on the back of it and it was still there never floated anywhere -- totally weird stuff. In Carrie's room the mattresses were lifted up and then put back on the bed lopsided. Guy threw his shoes and pants away in New Orleans and changed clothes because of all the mud and nasty stuff. Carrie said the smell was so bad that you could hardly breathe -- it reminded her of being inside a hot chicken house!!! I don't know but anyway. The upper cabinets in the kitchen fell off the wall. Plaster was peeling off the walls. Oh and the doors and windows to the house were all in tact so nothing structurally on the outer part of the house was messed up besides the deck and stuff -- as far as insurances is concerned though. Hopefully Bush will make them pay people. The detached garage is down the ally with a tree in it. All the doors into the house and in the house Guy had to kick in to get in. The hardwood floors were all buckled up -- I was afraid that they may be weak and be dangerous to walk on, but they didn't fall through the floor walking around in the house. Maybe I can get the pics some time to put on here so you all can see.

Well that is about all I know to tell you except I kept Olivia again tonight. I fed her supper then was going to give her a bath. Well I ran her water and put her in the sling thing for her bath. Walked away for a second to throw the baby food container away and she was grunting -- I came back and she shit in the bath... All the while Granny is sitting at the bar watching this -- mind you she doesn't get up in all of this!!! So I picked her up turned on the water and sprayed her butt off with the spray thing. then I am holding her with one arm praying she was done and doesn't shit on me -- Okay wipe the tears off from crying it gets better. So I am trying to balance her and rinse the crap off the sling thing and clean out the sink -- Granny is still just watching. She says don't wash it down the sink (runny poop) it will get in the disposal. So I continue to wash it down the drain, because what I am going to do suck it up with a straw or scoop up runny poop!!! Duh!!! So I finished cleaning it all up reran her bath water. Gave her a bath then get her out of the bath and start drying her off. Granny now gets up from the bar goes outside to the laundry room and gets the jug of bleach to was out the garbage disposal!!!! What the f**& you have got to be kidding me!! Carrie, Mom, and Guy had a field day when I told them this story so I hope you all get your laughter for the day when you read my blog -- Sad story in the beginning, funny shit (literally) at the end.

Love Beth
