Its been awhile since I blogged last and figured now is a good a time as any to fill u all in. So here we go with yesterdays excitement.
Yesterday started off normal I thought about taking the kids to story time at the library but then remembered that trin still has a fever so we just stayed home. Normal nothingness the rest of the day. Daniel gets home kids go down for a nap. Normal until I noticed shadow had been barking for a longer then normal amount of time so I got up to go check. I see a group of high school kids sitting on the wall by my house. I watch them through the window cause I know the people in my neighborhood suck butt. I hear 1 kid say “yea look there’s a brick over there” he hoops the wall into the parking lot beside my house so I go over and swing that door up “to shush my dog” which scares the crap out of the boy and his friend heading over to grab a “weapon”. Needless to say they didn’t get the brick and I stood in the door way starring at them for a bit then came inside. Called 911 after that to let them know a group of 20 minors and at least 2 adults were sanding outside my house who looked like they were up to no good. (Yes I’m a paranoid old person but with obvious good reason) then I went and woke daniel up letting him know what was going on and I had just called the cops if could get up while we wait for them to show up. (1st 911 call at a little after 3) I then went out front “to check the mail” really I wanted to see what they were up to from a different angle. Then I wrote my mom and told her that daniel could go get her from work after the kids left or the cops showed up. A few more kids showed up and hung out for a while. Then at about 400 3 cars full of people showed up noticed the group get agitated called 911 while moving to the front yard. Its Linda easy to “blend in” when they are all in fight mode cause they kinda get tunnel vision. So I’m standing in my drive way telling dispatch the situation has now changed cause 3 cars just pulled up and people have bats and a machete. Once the machete dude lunges at a guy who goes and stands behind daniel on the porch while I start yelling stuff. Don’t quote me I don’t remember exactly I just know it had some profanity in it and startled them all enough to stop for a moment. The “regrouped” and started again. This happens a few more times. The 911 operator asks “ma’am who are you yelling at” to which I replied “the ‘effing’ kids trying to stab people in my front yard!” Bla Bla Bla I yell at a few more kids when 1 says “why don’t you call the cops then!!!!” So I waved my phone at him and said “who the ‘eff’ do you think I’m talking to!!!” Then they all try and reassure me that nothings going on and everything/everyone’s OK. They hop in their cars drive off. I let dispatch know the vehicles that are being driven and in what direction they are headed. The kid that almost got stabbed and his group went just 3 doors down from us. Yay for living so close to such awesome people! While I was yelling I noticed a small trickle of fluids running down my leg. ***warning TMI approaching*** probably wouldn’t have noticed if I wasn’t in a dress without undies on. Sorry u were warned. I reneger thinking (while yelling) holy did I pee a little while yelling (at the top of my lungs which if u know me at all is pretty freaking loud) or did my water just break?” Iafter everyone left and finally got off the phone with 911 daniel and stayed outside waiting for the cops (which never showed) and watching to see what else happens. While standing outside I start getting some pretty awesome contractions so I go inside go pee cause I feel pressure but don’t actually pee. Check what liquid is on my leg no oder so I think “maybe that was my water” go tell daniel what’s going on then run a bath, call my mom to let her know a. What just happened outside the house b. I think my water broke and c. We will come get her in a sec. I call my obs office to see what they want me to do and the conversation goes something like this “so funny question there was a near stabbing in my front yard and I think my water may have broke while I was yelling at them…” she butts in “you need to go to the hospital” oh alright. All i wanted to do was soak in the tub. So now I have to sit in the tub while my brother gets home to pick up my kids and go get my mom from work. I then txt some family and let them know what’s going on. All the while the contractions have let up enough I don’t feel like I’m being ripped in half but still close and uncomfortable. My bro shows up daniel and I leave for the hospital while parking the RPD calls me to ask if im still in the area. I informed her that no i was not cause i think my water broke and im having contractions. I let her once again a group of the people involved are just 3 doors down from where I live then she asks if I was hurt I told her no then she wanted to know if I was already at the hospital like she’s gonna send out an ambulance or something. Ha no thanks I see how fast u responded to my 1st 2 calls I’ll handle this one on my own just like I red the other 2. I get there and have NO CLUE where I’m to go. I’ve only been to Parkview a handful of times and then was for when my sister was pregnant 7 yrs ago!!! Good place to start us the ER then send me to admitting where I wait about 20-30 mins to get that handled. Lame!!! Do u know how hard it is to fill out paper and answer question while in pain. Grrr. By the time they get a bed cleaned and hooked up I’m now only having MILD contractions and pressure. she swabs for fluids which by the way amniotic fluids when on a microscope film dries it makes a fern leaf pattern. I love odd info. Anywho after that dries we know it wasn’t my water that broke just my fat broke body unable to “contain” it self under “pressure”. Lol gotta love being pregnant. Had to get a second opinion on the fluids and then wait for a doc to check my out. By the time that happened @ 9ish I was only having braxton hicks type contractions and pretty much no more pressure so I told him I feel fine I’m ready to go home. (Oh p.s. there was a nurse shift change while I was there and when she came in to introduce herself and see how I was going I started to tell her well u see what happened was she said oh I heard all about the excitement. Lol so did the doc guess they over heard me telling my dad when he showed up) I let them know I had a Ob appointment scheduled for Friday which they thought was great so home I went after stopping to get Carl’s Jr cause I was STARVING!!!!
so I hope you enjoyed the exciting tales of the ghetto S.A.H.M. love you all and thanks for all your prayers and concerns.
Thrilling Thursday in the ghetto
