Bad luck streak, is hopefully over!
It all started one night 2 weeks ago when I was instructed to go to buy syrup. I was in the middle of editing, and simply sat my computer down so I could pick back up where I left off when I returned. BAD idea... Curious JAI' had his way with my computer- which landed me at geeksquad at 9pm at night. needless to say my computer was worked on for over a week, and cost dang near $400 dollars to repair.
Following this incident our ENTIRE family suffered a horrendous stomach bug for 3 days! Josh of course had it the worse, yet poor Ju had the bug twice. I had a mild case, as well as baby Jai'.
3rd incident was the very next Monday.. I had a giiiiNORMOUS A&P test that I didn't study much for over the weekend(thanks to the stomach bug)...so I was cramming like it wasn't even funny that day. As I sat with note cards in my face, I failed to notice how nap time was creeping up on us. Jai' didn't forget however, he grabbed a pillow off my bed and brought it to me on the sofa. As he tried to put it on the sofa to rest, he fell backwards off the sofa, onto the rug. The fall wasn't his worse, and was not all that bad, however it was the perfect fall to propel a loud SNAP noise, followed by lots of screaming. I knew Jai' surly broke his leg. He immediately reached for his ankle, and we rushed to the ER. His xray was negative, so they sent us home with instructions that if things did not improve in two days to be followed up on. Two days came and went, and Jai' still was not walking or putting any pressure on his leg. We saw his Peds doctor, who declared without furture investigation that there is without a doubt something wrong. He has put in another order for a xray on next Tuesday to double check for a break. If the new xray comes back negative, we will be sent to NOLA for a MRI- where Jai will be sedated. :( I will keep everyone posted. It has been a VERY rough time with a cripple (almost) 2 year old.
annnnnnnnnnnnnnnd lastly, #4... Monday night there was a terrible storm. In the science building on campus(where I was) we had no windows, and couldn't hear the storm... when we got out it was mostly what appeared to be heat lighting. Most of my class waited it out, I however was NOT waiting it out- I had a hurting baby at home! Because of this jolt out the building, I was one of the first ones driving off campus. When I got to the intercepting road, there was no lights, as a transformer obviously blew during the storm. I made a wide left so I could be in the right hand lane, to merge right onto 90 to come home. yeah.. none of that happened. Just as I made that wide left, I hit standing water, and my car stalled right in the middle of the intersection. Emergency first responders blew past me, as I later learned were heading to a tornado just 5 miles up the street. A friend picked me up and brought me home, and josh headed to go tend to my car. Before he could get to it, the cops had it towed. I was oblivious to my situations severity until yesterday afternoon. There is a good chance my car's motor will be no good- leaving my car in a 'totaled' state. I am beyond OVER this bad luck and beyond READY for things to begin looking up again.
with that being said- HAPPY Easter to everyone!
