Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I've always missed your family stories so I really enjoyed catching up here. But I'm so sorry to hear about all your troubles along the way. It's always seemed that life has been very eventful but, there again, with four children, that's hardly surprising.But you've clearly been an absolute rock, Beth! So organised and practical! There are some small edits: They quickly backed up and cha(n)ged directions; your last 3 lines have repetition throughout. Thanks for sharing another well written chapter. Debbie

Thank you Debbie. My daughter has been driving me nuts to finish the New Orleans year even though I was having more fun entering contests and other thing so I finally worked on it. I'd corrected the first error and I have no idea what happened to cause the other but I'm glad you caught. it was that before cut and pasted.

Talking about the daughter getting in the car and releasing the break and going backwards into the traffic you say the people saw the situation and they charged directions I think you meant changed to directions.

I Very much enjoyed listening to your story and it was a traumatic time for all of you as a family. I'm sure. Have a good day and have a very merry Christmas. Patricia.

Mercy sakes alive. I never had a big fire, but, we had Hurricane Harvey which flooded our house. I have moved a lot. And my kids have done many dumb things in their youth. But without conflict, there is no peace. I repeat that to myself over and over sometimes. hahaha Good story. Karen
