Im Sorry!

So many people are asking me to post! Have not done it in a very very long time!

So here it goes!

In Nov. 09 the boys and I left Colorado and headed to Kansas to start our new adventure! We had to leave Duane behind for 3 weeks while he was wrapping up the old Army stuff!

Got the boys enrolled in school that has really worked real well! I was a little scared! Im not a big public school fan! But, the fact that they use apple computers I was so happy, because those who now me Im a total Apple fan!! Go ahead and laugh Darin!

Thanksgiving has come and gone we went to Tulsa to my brother and Amandas house! We had all 5 boys with us! What a blessing that was.

Between Thanksgiving and Christmas we really have focused on getting Duane the care that he needs! I know that my prayers are being answered because its all falling into place!!

Christmas came and went!

Jan 2010

It was a very rough month Duane took a turn and we had to go to the hospital, I knew he wasn't good, he had not slept in a week. Also his bipap machine was being fixed. After several hours in the new ER to us(not military) I finally had to say the the Dr,I need mental health. He looked at me and I said "my husband has PTSD and is scared to go home" So after 2 hours waiting on mental health I was told that (this is Hard) Duane is suicidal, and I had to drive him 3 hours to the Wichita hospital to be admitted, because the VA didn't have a program for him. So I drove 3 hours for us to see a dr telemed( over a tv) to be told that they wouldn't admit him because he had no plan and because he had not hurt himself! So at 4 am we drove back home.

On Jan.17,2010 Duane Retired from the Army! It has been very different! We have been very very busy driving to Wichita to the VA for him, sometimes 2 or 3 times a week. He is now getting the therapy that he needs and it looks like our trips will only be 10 miles one way, and once a month we will travel to Wichita.

We are really enjoying being very close to Cyle and Codie and are bless to have them close to us! Codie,Zac,Sky are all playing basketball so you can only guess what our life is like! Cyle is working and boy can that kid save money, and Justin is getting ready to graduate high school and is a blessing and helps in any way he can! I havent done dished in forever!!

Ive been quilting and loving it!

We are still church hunting, but pray the right one comes soon!

THanks you for taking time and enjoying our family!

I promise I will be better, I need this it does help me with Duane.

ALso, thank you all for your prayers!

Love to all in Christ Jesus!
