What an exciting 2 days!

As my title suggests, the last 2 days were very exciting. It all started yesterday afternoon, when, suddenly, I realized, "Wow...it's really hot in here." Yes friends, my AC had died. The only good thing that can be said about that, was that at least it wasn't too hot yesterday. The temperature topped out at around 88. Unfortunatly, it was a good 5 or 6 degrees warmer inside than it was outside. So, Rachel packed the kids into the car yesterday evening, and took them over the grandparents house. I waited in the heat for the repair man. When he showed up, it took him all of fifteen minutes to diagnose and fix the problem. It was still too hot for the kids to come home, so I went over to Bill and Dianne's (Rach's folks) house. They were nice enough to put us up for the night. While I really appreciate them lettin us stay, I dont think I need to sleep over there very often. My allergies and asthma were killin me throughout the night. (So - note to self take meds to inlaws house when spending the night.)
So after surviving the night, I got to teach my new sunday school class. They're good kids. I think we're going to have a good year together. I only had six students in the class, while the other 1st grade class next door had 16. I have a feeling some of them may be coming my way. Anyway, after teaching class, I met up with Rachel and Sarah. Sarah is now a big 4 year old, and she gets to go to big church! She was very well behaved too. In any case, about 2/3 of the way through the sermon, Williams number starts flashing up on the wall to let us know there is a problem. Rachel got up and went to check on him. 5 minutes went by, and I was starting to get a little concerned. About that time I saw Rach stick her head out the sanctuary door and gesture for me to come with her. It was then I found out the problem wasn't with William, it was with Jane. Apparently she had fallen during visitation at an assisted living center. So we gathered up the kids and took off to see Jane. Due to poor directions, we ended up dring all over town looking for the center. We finally made it there, and found Jane sitting in a chair with her leg looking broken. We didn't want to wait on an ambulance, so we loaded her up in the minivan. She was hurtin so much that it made her nauseated. After gettin her in the van, I got to play ambulance driver. We made it to the hospital in Montgomery, and got her looked at right away- It pays to be married to the Doc...you get to cut right through the red tape. I kept the kiddies busy while Jane got xrayed and examined. It turns out that the bone isn't broken. Since it's not broken, Jane will get to see an orthopedic doc sometime tomorrow. The leg Jane hurt had a knee replaced a few years ago, so we need to have a specialist take care of her.
Anyway, we got Jane a wheelchair, took her home, and tried to make her as comfortable as possible. It's been fairly quiet since she got home...I'm just hoping that it isn't a serious injury and she can get back on her feet soon. Other than that, I've had a slow day! cya all later-
