A little bit of everything

I will start things off that Steve's aunt and uncle finally got electricity yesterday. They live in Mobile, AL. My father in law talked to one of their neighbors in Slidell, LA to see how their neighborhood looked. She told him that their house was still standing and looked ok, but that she had water damage in her house. We are still not sure how their house really is, but hopefully there wasn't too much damage. I'm thinking they may have went to see today. Thanks Courtney for asking about them!!
I hope everything is ok! This whole situation is so sad, I feel so bad for all of the kids and elderly that were starving and thirsty in New Orleans, waiting to be picked up. My casino is ruined that I won my money in, in August! It was a beautiful casino. We have spent so much time in Gulfport, Biloxi, Bay St. Louis and New Orleans it is really sad for me to try to realize all of this happening, we were just there 4 weeks ago!!

Congratulations on your new car Courtney!! I was wanting an SUV or a van but now I guess I need a big "small" car that gets good gas mileage! And holds a kid, baby, big dog and me and a husband.

I went to the doctor today. For all of you that haven't read my blog a couple of days ago,---yes, I am pregnant!!! I know I am old, don't remind me!! Anyway we had a scare on the 22nd(Mon.) I went in and they couldn't find the baby on the ultrasound. They saw a sac but no baby. She had me take a bloodtest, then come back on the 24th(Wed) for another test to check my levels. She then said she thought I had a blighted ovum, which means there is a sac but no baby had formed. They scheduled me for a d&c for the next morning. She had me come back that Wed. evening to X-ray to have another vaginal u.s. done to make sure. So me and the X-ray guy are looking around in there (ok, no jokes!!:) and we saw what they said was the sac, and he scanned down and he said, "There's your baby! Moving around and everything. I about flew off the table and gave him a big hug! LOL Anyway, no I didn't fly off the table, but he made my night!!!!!!!!! Things have been going good ever since-needless to say I didn't set foot in that hospital the next day!! My blood pressure has been high and I am taking medicine, but I am feeling really good. Just praying a lot that this pregnancy will be good and to term!
