February...REALLY????

WOW...I sure can't believe it is February 2012 already.  Where has the time gone?  Sooo much has happend to my family in the past 2 weeks.  First of all, Im gonna start with my parents getting arrested.  January 19th, 2012.  It was such a beautiful day that day.  I got up early enough to go have "brunch" with my sister.  I had gotten a phone call from my mama but I didn't have good service so I didn't answer.  She left a voicemail saying that she had taken Ricky to the DR. and he has Pharyngitis and Bronchitis and they were gonna go home and lay down awhile.  So, I didn't worry with calling her back. 

The next time I hear from my mama was @ 2:05pm.  It was from a number I was hoping wasn't true.  She says,"Katie, what time do you have to be at work?"  I said, " 4pm,Y"  She said, "I need you to come to the police station and get my ciggerate case!!"  I said, "Y??"  She said, "We r in JAIL"!!!  Yes you read that right....MY PARENTS ARE IN JAIL!!!  :(((((  I said, "Y"  All my mother was allowed to say is there charge was manufacturing and the sale of precurser.  I knew what manufacturing was but not the other.  I was DUMFOUNDED to say the least.  I told her I would be right there.  I jumped up and threw my work clothes on, called Joe and Jessica, and we headed to Fayette.  When we get there, or course, police wouldn't let us see them.  :((  We did find out exactly what there charge was.  It was all ONE charge.  Manufaturing/Sale of Precurser which means they bought pills with the intent to sale to a drug dealer/maker for a large sum of money.  Officer informed us neither one of them were doing drugs, just they were selling the pills to make money off them because times were hard and they needed money. SOOO, this is all we have to go own because we can't talk to them to see what really happend.

I had to go to Black's Wrecker Service and pay $75 to get Mama's car out of the inpound.  I had to use bill money but I didn't care.  I was getting my Mama's car no matter what I had to do.  It was soo weird because she has NEVER allowed anyone to drive her car and here I am driving it.  It was bittersweet.  :((  All I could do was cry.  I had to go gather up Ricky's medicine at the Pharmacy and carry back to the jail.  When I walked in to drop his meds off there he is.  They had him in integragation and was taking him back upstairs.  He was there in his orange jump suit, handcuffs, shackles...Looking just like a criminal.  It was DEVISTATING and I broke down.  I couldn't talk to him and he couldn't talk to me.  Jessica and I just stood there, ALL ALONE, looking at our "Daddy" that way.  Were were horrified.  They finally took him upstairs and it was then time for me to leave and go to work.  Jessica had to get back to Berry to get her girls. 

I was an hr late for work.  I wouldn't have went in but I wasn't gonna leave Terrika there to close all alone.  It's sooo hard to close with to people let alone all on one person.  All night I was an emotional basket case.  I just couldn't imagine what my Mama and Stepdad was going through.  I went on break about 7 and I had a missed call on my phone from a number I had no idea what it was.  I called it back and it was busy.  I knew right then that my mama had tried to call me but I couldn't answer.  I was soooo upset.  I called my sister and told her and Mama had tried to call her to.  Since all either one of us had was cell phones we had to call and put a special program on our phones just to be able to accept there phone calls.  UGH!!  After I got off work at 9pm, I had to go to Mama's apartment and get Tiny, her dog.  Tiny didn't understand Y I was getting her.  She kept looking for Mama.  :(  Sooo sad.

The next day, I was off from work.  It was the day to take Hannah out for her birthday.  I posted about that on one of the last post you can read about.  :)  Soo, after all I just went through, I felt as if I wasn't gonna skimp from taking my Hannah bug out on the town.  While we were in town my phone rings and it's my Mama calling me from jail again.  I answer it and I hear her voice but it wont let me answer it.  UGH!!!  I was devistated again.  I imediately pull over on the side of the interstate and call to put that service on my phone where I can answer her phone calls.  It costed me $30 and that wasn't gonna last but maybe 2 calls.  WOW.  How expensive but I sure didn't care.  What made me soo mad was they said it wouldn't work until around 24hr.  WHAT???  Really???  I was soo mad.  That afternoon when I got home from town, Jessica called and they were at the jail house bonding Mama and Ricky out of jail. They finally got a bond set so I loaded Joe up and we headed over there.  When I pulled into the parking lot, out walked Ricky with his belongings.  He walked with his head held down and on out to the truck.  We had to wait on Mama.  All of a sudden, Jessica said, "Katie, look!!"  I looked and there came my mama in the dreaded orange jump suit that was 5 times to big on her, carrying a rubbermade toat with her belongings in it.  Her eyes were very red and swollen where she had cried for a total of 24 hrs.  She looked awful.  This was one of the most DEVISTATING times of my life.  When do you ever wanna see your mama in a jail orange jump suit???  We get them back to Berry and I go pick them up to bring them to my house to get there car.  Mama, Ricky, Joseph, and I all sat in the livingroom talking.  We now find out what REALLY happened.

Brother-in-law got a scare that his colan cancer was back.  Got results today its not back.  Praise God for his Glory.  :))
