Without pain that is. Yes, the kickball game kicked my butt. I think it would have been a lot harder on me had I not be push mowing the grounds since we moved here. It was so much fun, though, would do it all again! In the previous post, I failed to notate that I whomped (whomped, is that a word?? oh well) my sister in skip bo 4 out of 5 games. She is losing her edge or I'm getting mine. She used to be unbeatable. She commented to me that I didn't mention it, so here you go...*chants* I won you lost I won you lost! (does that make you feel better, seestore?)
Yesterday I had to take Isabelle to the doctor, a new doctor, by the way at the Community Health Center. What a nightmare I was in a horrible mood the rest of the day. I was unable to procure a person to go with me to stay in the car with Lillian so that was the number 1 first issue. So I thought I'd sit in the car with the kids until they needed us....#2 issue presents itself...I had to park over a block away from the building. #3 issue, walking into the packed waiting room and being ignored by the desk people. (on a good note, they did allow us to sit in a private office PTL) #4 issue, arrived for 1130 appt time at 1110 (as it took me 10-15 minutes to even find a parking place) #5, did not get taken back to see the doctor until almost 1:00. UNBELIEVABLE. Best yet, she believes it is just something viral. This was a new physician to us who spent less than 10 minutes on an exam and left. Not even the one we were supposed to be seeing, apparently that doctor quit the facility. My kids have been seeing the same doctor since Rebecca was born, 11 years. To make a long story short, bc of insurance reasons, they have to switch to this CHC. Perhaps I failed to mention that I left three messages at this clinic in August trying to get Rebecca scheduled for a sports physical and NOONE called back, and they DO NOT answer phones. I was biting back tears as we sat there waiting, what can I say, this form of change I just did not embrace well. The one and only thing that held off the tears....there was a large picture hanging in the room that had a Bible verse beneath it. I took that as a sign. I just could not believe a County Health Center allowed it to be there. Thank you Lord, for bringing me comfort in my difficult situation yet again. I wish the day had gone better and I wish they could have given us something to make Isabelle feel better, but that's not how it went.
Today, we go to the dentist for a filling and a sealant. Good, good times. Probably should stop this post and go prepare for that trip.
My friend, Marcia took some fantastic pictures of the picnic, cannot wait to post them.

I am glad you are moving again. :) Years ago (when I was in MUCH better shape than I am now) I threw a frisbee ALL DAY. I couldn't move my arm for three days!!
I am sorry you have had to change docs. I can't imagine how hard that is after all that time. And to have an office that doesn't do right by you... the worst!! I am glad you were able to survive and God sent you some comfort.
Still constantly praying for you and your fam.
Hugs
Get thee a handicapped sticker. I first declined (at developmental peds), but then reconsidered and they sent me a paper, which I filled out and took the DMV and got 2 hanging placards. I don't use it unless I have Addison, but since I am carrying her all over the place still, it makes Target trips a bit easier not lugging her through the entire parking lot.
That's my tip of the day!
