I know that I haven’t even said Happy New Year, but life has been a bit overwhelming at times. I just thought I would give quick update of the end of 07 and the beginning of 08.
Dec 23- Drove to Atlanta
Dec 24- Perdue and Etheredge Christmas

Dec. 30- Travel to Jackson, Ga for church and enjoy Family time at Nanabuds lake house
Dec 31- Jim went hunting and came home with a fever
This is where it gets good:
Dec 31- 11:35 p.m Jake wakes me up telling me that his tummy hurts…..
We stay up off and on until 4 a.m. with him throwing up and then at 4:30 the other part of the stomach bug starts to hit him so we stay up until 7:30 going to sit on the potty….Oh Yeah…Happy New Year!
Jan 1- The day we had planned to travel home…didn’t happen! Jim left us in Georgia so he could get back to work. Judd started throwing up at noon and we just all laid around watching football.
Jan 2- Nana graciously brought us back to TN.
Jan 3- Jim and I felt pretty horrible all day and the boys still needed to recover so all four of us stayed on the couch all day. Jake will Jim and Judd with me. It really was a sweet time to cuddle,but we all felt yucky!!
Jan 4- We finally felt better. I started organizing the house some.
Jan 5- Jim is sick again-this make for another rough day
Jan 6- Church and Jim leaves for Lynchburg for the week
Jan 7-9 The boys and I try to manage without daddy around.
Jan 10- Jake wakes up with pinkeye.
Jan 11- Can’t wait to see Daddy
We are hoping the Jan 14 will bring a new day, new year, and a normal schedule to our daily lives.
I am blessed, but overwhelmed this week. Question: what in the world am I going to do with three? I am just thankful this is Jim’s last class!!!!
Good gracious, life is certainly not boring! I hate that Jake and Judd haven’t been feeling too hot, that cannot be much fun. That is an amazing calendar, hope things get a bit more boring for you!
God’s blessings on you and the family. I can relate, or maybe I should say Juanita can relate. Parenthood is such an awesome experience and speaking for myself, I didn’t really appreciate it until our 3 were grown and having our grandchildren. My heart goes out to you. It is a terrible feeling to have little ones sick and there is little you can do. Right now I have a granddaughter that has had the bug for the past week and my heart hurts for her and mom. So hang on! Sometimes that’s all you can do and it has some scary moments, but at the end of the ride you will want to get back on and go again. Mike.
