What a week.. started out better than the last two because Justin was actually able to go to work because NO RAIN but that did not turn out to good. I hate Justins job, I know that every job is dangerous no matter where you work but cutting timber just makes it even more dangerous. I have a rule.. Justin is not allowed to talk to me about his job because I am scared that something will happen to him, well my fear came true this week. I am use to Justin not being able to call me while at work because he never has service and just keeps his phone in the truck until he gets off. Tuesday at lunch time my phone rang and it was Justin I was just thinking that maybe they finished the job and he was on his way home.. Boy was I wrong. So anyways, I answer the phone and he ask me what I am doing which I than tell him and he says well a tree and of course since he is not allowed to talk to me about work, I tell him to shut up I do not want to hear about it I will talk to you later love you and go to hang up the phone, well he than yells no do not hang up I am at THE MED. My heart stopped at this moment, I was so scared but then again I knew that he was alive and could not be hurt that bad since he was the one calling me.. right?! Well while cutting a tree at work a dead tree behind him snapped and there was no out running this tree, it hit him in the head and neck. Thank God he is smart enough to wear a hard hat, due to that he had no head injury, but at this time of talking to him we still did not know this because he was still waiting to have a CT scan. So of course I am freaking out and worried but do not know what to do because he does not want me to come there because he is scared that I will get lost on the way.. true because I probably would have but I can say I will NEVER stay at home waiting for him to call to tell me what is going on, next time (hopefully there will NEVER be a next time but if so) I will be going to be with him!!
All I can say is God was with him Tuesday morning, because lucky nothing was broke and no head injury, but he does have a bad case of whiplash, which can be pretty dangerous if you are not careful. They put him in a neck brace for 2 weeks, which I do not see him doing but we shall see. I am so thankful that God allowed Justin to come home to me without being seriously hurt. Honestly I do not know what I would do without Justin. He is my world, my everything. I do not want him to cut timber anymore, but I know that he is still going to continue to do so even though it scared the crap out of me. I understand that he needs to work and that he does love his job but gosh it just I do not even know how to explain the feeling I get when I think about him cutting timber especially now… I know that all I should be thinking about is that he is still here with me and that I should be concentrating on that fact but it is hard.

The above is from last week, I just haven’t had time to update so I am doing that now.
Last Saturday which was the 18th, Justin & I went with his mom, David, Sas, Johnny, Tara and Bill to Nashville we met up with Ronda, Chris and the boys there. We went to Nashville to see the Rockettes. I honestly did not believe that Justin would like it but he actually did! Which I could not see how he wouldn’t have like it because they were absolutely AWESOME! I would love to go back next year. Mrs. Donna had bought the tickets for all of us for Christmas. We also went to Logans for lunch and then after the show we went to this little country restaurant that Bill & Tara go to when they are in Nashville. It was so good! Everything there is homemade and they are famous for their biscuits, and let me tell you the biscuits are freaking A-Mazing!! It was really fun just being able to go with his family and have fun. I have never done anything like that with his entire family and I really enjoyed being able to do something like that. Justin was not going to go at first but he finally ended up saying yes and I am glad that he did because I could tell that it made his momma happy to be able to have all her kids there. But during the trip Sashas tooth was killing her, she has never had a toothache and her mouth was swollen from the infection. Sunday night Mrs. Donna called me to let me know that Sasha was rushed the emergency room to have emergency surgery. They cut her tooth out and then put a tube in her gum to drain out the infection. Luckily they caught it in enough time to be able to do this because something like that can kill you, she could have ended up with septic shock which is what my daddy died from. They kept her in the hospital for a few days but she is now at home but her mouth is still a little swollen.
Yesterday was a very sad day for my family on my dads side. My cousin Dale’s daughter had a little boy (Treyson but we called him Trey) 9 weeks ago and sadly he was sent home to be with her heavenly father yesterday. The baby was in the bed his daddy the night before and when he woke up the baby was dead. They, at the time, believed that he rolled over on the baby an smothered him but now they are thinking that it could have been the formula that the baby was drinking, which is on recall and has already killed a 1 year old baby, or the baby could have died from SIDS. They are doing an autopsy to find out for sure what the cause of death is. I hope and pray that they find out that it was either from the formula or SIDS because I could not imagine the daddy having to think he is the reason his baby is dead. They are already going to blame themselves but it would be even harder to think that you are the reason your baby is dead. I pray that God will give them the strength that they need to be able to get through this rough time. Losing Brooklyn was very hard on me because after having her for 2 days and thinking that she was going to be able to pull through all the obstacles that were being thrown at her was hard but I could not imagine having her in our lives for 9weeks or longer and then losing her. Yes, losing a child is hard no matter the length of time you have with him/her but having that child/baby there with you for that length of time and getting into your daily routine and being able to hold and kiss them every day and then losing them to a tragic death… God that would be so hard…
