October 10
Went to church to vacuum foyer and fall décor. Carpet on front porch more ripped. Lifted the piece blowing in wind and accidentally ripped it more. Decided to rip it all off. Had to chisel/scrap some of glue spots on bottom half. Came home and soaked in Epsom Salt bath to ease pain.

Shocking truths about lightning strikes
October 12
8:00a- woke in a panic. Suppose to get up at 7am. Thought I hit snooze the second time, but apparently not! Now late…gave myself a headache & bloody nose! Ugh! Read two passages in Bible.
Cooked egg for Dezirae. Packed her a lunch and out tge door by 8:30a. Volleyball tournament in Semmes. Have to borrow a car to get her there.
10:00a- decided to make batch of homemade bisquick mix. Messed up royally! Direction asked for 5 TBPS of Baking powder. My eyes saw 5 cups sugar. Realized it after I dumped 5th cup of sugar on top of flour. Able to scoop out 2 1/2 cups of sugar.
Next mishap was the baking powder. I grabbed what I thought was baking powder and measured out 5 TBPS. Kept going. It wasn’t until I was putting items away that it was actually corn starch! Ugh!
I let Jordon know what I did. While chuckling, he came and gave me a hug and replied, “It’s okay, Mom!” Awh!
I replied, “I’m not getting much right today.
Jordon reiterates, “It’s okay, mom.”
I said, “I know. It’s just frustrating at times.”
11:00a- able to weed 2nd half of my flower garden in front yard. Also, planted winter onions in a tote.
12:21p – received notification that Dezirae’s game was over and she was free to go home. Had to let them know that I didn’t have access to a car until my husband gets home. One of the other moms graciously offered to bring her home. Thank you, Lord.
1:00p- able to plant green beans & bell peppers in totes too. Prayed they will grow and produce fruit. I don’t have a green thumb, but I’m trying.
3:00p- went out soulwinning with my family to pass out fliers for our church’s revival services. The very first house my sister & I approached the guy was rude! He told us that we needed to get out of the neighborhood. When we asked why, he told us because he was fixing to sick his dog on us. We told him we didn’t want to cause any trouble. As we turned to walk away, he proceeded to try to sick his dog on us! The dog didn’t do anything. I couldn’t walk very fast because I have to use a cane for balance. We kept on going. In my mind, I shook the dust off my feet and prayed that one day this man will get saved.
After thought – what man in his right mind sicks his dog on a cripple woman walking with a cane. Shame on him! Thank you, Lord, for the dog not coming after us because the whole neighborhood would’ve heard me screaming!!
5pm- back home to eat dinner. Thankfully, dinner was in crockpot pot. I’m exhausted.
6:00p- the events of day are catching up to me. I’m really hurting and ready for bed. Still have a bad headache. Gonna have to take a migraine pill…nothing else is working.
7:30 – watched Courageous with family. Noticed my headache was starting to ease. Finally. Hard to think straight when head hurts that much.
10:17p – going to bed. I’m tired, but wide awake.
Low back throbbing, ears itch, hands swollen and achy, toes tingly, feet hurt, neck hurts, upper back achy, hiccups, tired but cant sleep, arm hurt, calves starting to cramp & ache
