Saturday

Not a good day at all. Started out fine...enjoyed a leisurely morning and went to the cheap haircut place and got a short cut from a new lady. She was good, quick, and funloving! Then came home and worked on some stuff for my growth group starting Thursday. L took younger daughter to mow since youngest son had a sleepover and wanted to crawl into bed. Middle son came over and so older daughter came down and the 3 of us had a wonderful talk for an hour or so. The mowers came home and younger daughter was upset and went up to her room. We talked a bit and then D had to go meet somebody at 1:45. I got some stuff to work on and since it wasn't a super hot day, went out and sat outside and worked on it, while running inside every so often to check on the laundry I was doing. At one point I went to check on younger daughter and she was crying. I told her she needed to get up and get something done today since she had slept in until 10. She told me to go away but then she started getting up. So I went back to laundry.

Then about 3:30 or thereabouts I was putting some laundry away in my room when hubby came hollering in the house saying, "Get younger daughter! She just texted me that she took 60 tylenol." and then she came into my room and sat down. She looked ok... so I talked to her and checked her pulse and it seemed higher than usual. She admitted she took the pills and so I asked L if he was calling 9-1-1 and before I could go run and tell older sister to pray, I heard the sirens in the distance. Anyway, long story short.. she is in the hospital. She seems fine physically but now she's in the psych ward and we can't contact her or see her. She could be there up to 72 hours. I think she's ok, so now I am thinking, how on earth are we going to pay for this? With L out of work and my salary stretched thin paying for all of the other daughter's medication and younger daughter's wisdom teeth last month, and still paying on youngest son's braces.... oh God have mercy on us...
