When it rains...

It pours...

What a day  What a month it has been for the Lyles...
Let us start with today. I get Blakely ready and head to church. Clint stayed back with Parker since his colic is so bad. I walk to my car after the service is over and ta-da glass has been shattered from Blakely's window & drum roll please my purse has been stolen. 3 major credit cards, cell phone, drivers license, um around $2,000 worth of cash (we are doing the Dave Ramsey cash system), insurance cards, you name it, they got it!
This whole ordeal will end up costing us around $3,000 minimally.

I have sat here all day and hundreds of times thought through all the 'what-ifs'...I have been beating myself up about why in the heck I had all that with me...But, what's done is done--lesson learned. ALWAYS have your guard up and think the worst about everyone and every situation. I'm 100% sure these scumbags were watching me since my purse was hidden underneath my seat and nothing else in my car was touched. They racked up around $4K at Foot Locker, Wal-Mart, Macy's and getting gas...

Needless to say, I've been on the phone all day dealing with all this.

Let's get to some other goodies this month...

Never ending hospital bills $3,000
Dryer broke $200
Ray Bans broke in half $175
Blakely, Parker and I all got sick
Mac went dead-all videos gone (trips, marriage, Blakely's birth-2 years...) in fact, everything was gone $225 to repair
Mac keyboard died $50
Job Clint was promised-fell through PRICELESS! (Current job is beyond misreable)
Zizi's vet bill $170
Clint's blue tooth & my headphones for phones both went dead $100
Dad almost had a heart attack...

Grand Total in case you don't feel like adding=$6,920. Ha!


Let's please not forget that all this is with a one month old.......with colic.

Life is good.
