Let just say that it was pretty calm until yesterday!....
Friday I was invited to my cousins Creative Memories Party in Columbia. Loreli and I just rode with my mom and Rebecca came along too. It was a great night see everyone and just hanging out...it was a late night like always when girls get together!...LOL
Saturday Loreli and I ran some errands in the morning and just hung out the rest of the day. Eli was working on the house pretty much all day...that evening Loreli and I went over to the house to check things out and to say Hi to Ben (he is a good friend and he is doing our tile work). Everything is looking great....we still have a lot to do but it starting to come together....finally!!!
We called Robbie and Tina to see if they wanted to go to supper...so we packed up and headed to Tequila's...it was yummy and lets just say my marg was AMAZING!!!! Momma needed it! We headed home and rested the rest of the night!
Sunday...what a day it turned out to be!
I had to great at church in the morning....Loreli woke up in a mood and I knew there was no way she was gonna be able to sit through church...so I called Grandma and Grandpa to see if they could watch her!
After church was over we had the Stellhorn Christmas Party....it was YUMMY YUMMY food and good to see everyone! Rick (my step dad) and I had planed to texture the wall at the new house that afternoon. I left Loreli with Mom so we could get the walls done and not have a 21 month running around with wet joint compound.
We got to the house and Ben was still working on the tile and Eli stopped in to see if Ben needed anything...He was helping Jay cut firewood out at their farm.
We got started and everything was going great!...until we got about 3/4 of the way done and realized that we were gonna run out of the mixture....I called Eli no answer, so then I called Jay he answered and I was like I need to talk to Eli and he said he isn't here....
Well where is he at we need more Joint compound...
I can't tell you where he is...
why not...
he told me not too...
Jay come on...
Well he is gonna get mad at me but you need to know...
What Jay....
A tree fell on him and Caleb took him to the ER...
HE IS AT THE ER....OMFG!!!
OK I gotta go and figure out what is going on!
I called Tina to see if she would go to the ER to see what was gong on and let me know how bad it was and stuff....I know I am sure you are all thinking why didn't I go myself...but let just say I was covered in mud, the walls were half way done and needed to get done, we were out of mud and I need to find some asap...if it was super bad Jay would have told me!
I called my Uncle Darrell to see if he had any and he did...so I ran out and got some and were able to move along in the kitchen.
Tina was keeping me up to date the whole time and she called and said that she thought he was ok because he was talking and sitting up. They took him to get a CT Scan of his head and neck....it came back that he had a mild concussion and a strained neck....THANK GOD...that is all that it was because I know it could have been so much worse!
Rick and I were finishing up the Kitchen when Tina called and said that they were on their way because Eli wanted to see the Kitchen....He has a BIG brush mark on the top of his head where the tree hit him and he was moving alittle slow...he said he was in alot of pain. He stayed for a bit and talked to Rick...Jay came over to check on him too! He told Tina he was ready to go home and rest a bit.
We finished everything up, cleaned up and headed home too!
Eli is feeling better this morning and went to work...Loreli woke up with a fever and bad cough...so not looking so good for the week!
Hopefully things will get better soon and we are all back to normally...we have a big week ahead of us...moving!
