Last Sunday morning @ 5AM our phone rang. Our oldest daughter was calling from the police station, she had just wrecked her car and could we come get her as she was hurting and needed medical (she refused at the scene). Get there and get her to the ER only to spend the entire day finding out she had 4 broken bones in her foot and both wrists were broken., among bruises and some cuts. Turns out the car is totaled.
Monday night the phone rings and it is Ben. His security was denied for his MOS. Tuesday I spend the day on the phone with his Frst Sarg only to find out he lied to me and he is simpy homesick and wanted out. He has been refusing to attend his AIT classes as "somebody" told him if he did that he would get sent home. Forward to Tuesday night when he tells me what a rotten mom I am because I would not get him out <sigh> I just feel he needs to try. He loved basic and I really think he will be ok after he gets over this bout of homesickness. He will regret it so much if he gives up not to mention what the dishonarable discharge will do to his life. He is only 17 and still thinks the world revolves around him.
Wed and Thu I spent reeling from all that had happened and trying to convince myself it could have all been worse. My daughter could have been killed, Ben could have went AWOL...
Fri, my dog bit my granddaughter on the face. I have had this pup since the night before my granddaughter was born. I bottlefed them both at the same time. They are both 2 and a half. So Fri afternoon, Sat and today I have spent trying to figure out just what to do about my dog. My granddaughter is here everyday and I simply can not trust my dog now. It was one of those fluke things, granddaughter fell on the floor, to close to where the pup was laying and the dog bit her. Thankfully, not badly but enough to draw blood. My first instinct was to go to the vet and have her put down....after I calmed down, I realized a new home would be better so long as no children are there and I am making the new owners sign a statement they know she has bitten once. She really is a great dog and I feel she needs a second chance. So now I worry about finding said home. In the meantime, the dog is in the laundry room when the granddaughter is here, and that makes me feel horrible in itself.
Horrible week here! I just want to curl up someplace and cry for a few hours and then sleep for about 8. But I just can not find time to do that.
Thanks for letting me vent!
