Talk about lucky!

We were alerted that we were going to get a tropical storm.Everyone was ready to get on the escape road and go. Friends and family called to see that we were going to get out of harms way.  We were watching the storm watches on the television and The computer.  When we saw that it was turning east instead of north west we  were very happy.. they names this storm Debbie.  and she settled for Florida , but it is rain and wind,a tropical storm , ythat was bad enough but when wefirst were warned  we were told it was going to be a hurricane.Thank the good Lord .But see we live in a mobile  home so even though it is double tied down , it could be  destroyed in the event of a full Hurricane.  We want to put a modular house on this property in a couple of years. Once this is all paid for we will be able to do it.  Well, my middle son celebrated his birthday today. 37 yrs ago I gave birth to him. Hope he enjoyed his day.  
    I babysat my grandson yesterday for a while, he keeps me busey. I was in the spare bedroom where Tina keeps the diapers.While I was getting them he got up on the couch and pulled the window blind down on top of him. I heard it and he was makeing his little I didn;t do it on purpose wimpers. I walked in and looked at him and didn't say a word,this was new to him .  He got a little nervous so he got up on the couch where I was puttin it in its bracket. He kept staring at me, when I looked down at him he puckered up and started crying. I still didn't say anything. I sat down and he climbed up on my lap and laid his head against me . Then I said you were bad. He looked down and then I told him not to do it again. And he didn't touch it again. It worked better than scolding or even doing a time out.Ty is a very bright child he learned how to make the computer scroll down or up on a page'  The newest thing as of the last 2 times I babysat , he cries and carries on when I am getting ready to leave. He wants me to stay. I think he must like his grandma lol.
    Well my son is trying to get a job. He went to prison for 10 months and everytime they read it  they say no we just hired someone. Everyone says go get a job,  but no one wants to hire an excon.  He has totally changed plus he loves his little son , Tiberius has brought something out of Chris that I had never seen.  So he is going to go for an interview tomorrow  We have helped them so much that we have nothing left. Her parents have helped also , But they still need to get the 420dollars for their rent, I only pray that the interview goes well tomorrow. The darn diapers are so expensive its crazy.Tina has a job with TJMAX and she brings home about 160 dollars a week but between gas and diapers and trying to pay bills they are drowning.  Chris broke down into tears for a couple of seconds then managed to choke them back, when he found out that his step dad , Howard took the heavy metal frame  of f the bed and I took the wrap arounds off so we could put them with the metal that they are taking to the scrap yard.he was so upset and he told his wife that if his step dad would do this for him and he isn't even related to him, she needs to ask her relatives for help too .  so u see its hard everywhere.  Thats about it for now from Jodie in Bama
