Goldie Locks

GOLDIE LOCKS, TO SOFT, TO HARD, JUST RIGHT,

MOM, TO COLD
Last time we were here my poor Mom was freezing. We had to keep the room really cold because Ari would get to hot. One time I looked over at my Mom in her 5 layers and she was shivering She then said,"If i was naked right now I would wish I was dead". Of course Ari would be completely naked with no covers and burning up. One of the chemo's causes her to get fevers. Her decease also causes fever's, so it's just a double whammy.

ME, TO SCARY
I live in pajamas the entire time I am up here. The best are my bright pink hart pajamas. we are in bed for the whole time so, what would you do. Last time i got stuck up here with hardly anything. So looking presentable can be an issue, ex specially when your baby won't let you leave her to get a shower in. I really let my self go. I think being pregnant has helped me get a few dozen zits plus i am really pale. So if you can imagine i am pretty scary. My hair was also big, snarly, and about 5 different colors. The worst part about all this is as you lift your head out off bed there is a huge mirror right there, Scares the begeeses out of me.

ARI, TO BRIGHT
We call Ari our little vampire because she lives off people blood, a lot of the time she is pale as can be, and she doesn't like the light. I feel like i live in a cave. We never go outside plus she won't let us open the blinds ever. It is almost always pretty dark. during the day some light will still come through the blinds and she keeps asking me to turn of the light, and i can't do anything about it.

EVERYONE, TO LOUD
The toilets here can swallow a small child. they are pretty intense. If you flush it with the door open you are definitely getting woke up at night. they are so loud.

JUST RIGHT
Our new room Is very WARM it is about 72 degrees. Sleeping next to a human heater that is about 103 degrees can be tricky. She has had a fever ever since we got here. Mom is finally warm.

There are no mirrors So we are NOT SCARY any more because we no longer have to look at our selves. So until the smell gets to bad were pretty content.

There are no windows so at any time of day it can feel like midnight. Now it really is as DARK as a cave.

last but not least, we have PEACE AND QUITE. The bathrooms we use are the public ones about 40 yards away. This room really is JUST RIGHT.

It is funny what we complain about when we have it so good. Sometimes I feel so picked on, but I am so blessed and have it so good. i know i would not want to trade places with very many people here. I am grateful for my trials and I know the Lord gave them to me Knowing I would be Ok.
