     Bill Sandusky, recovered from his recent cold, writes in his journal while feeding several of his children.

Weds., March 11, 2009, Nashville, TN., 9:19 p.m., D.S.T.~

Dear Journal~

Bill here.  Sorry if I haven't written in here since the 26th of last month; been busy working, taking care of the troops.  You know how that goes.

Such as the case now.  I am currently sitting here, feeding two of our children, Jodie and Todd, who are fed by tubes in their bellies.  All I do is get their stuff, hook it to their tubes, and let gravity do its work after I hang the bags to the IV poles.

The other kids are in their rooms or in the living room.  Louie is with the younger kids, getting them ready for bed. 

I am happy to say that none of the children got my cold.  That has been a constant worry of mine; If there's one thing I don't need it's a houseful of sick kids!  I've been praying for God to keep them healthy; so far He's listened.  I'm so glad He has!  :)

Work has been a lot better since I'm not doing store greeter any more.  I don't have to worry about people knocking me over or putting up with rude, irate customers who think they know more than I do.  I can sit down too; the only time I get up is to go for my breaks or come to/from work.  LOL  So much easier on my body, especially when the weather's bad!

We have been busy practicing for our upcoming Easter Cantata at our church, which is in a few weeks.  So far everything seems to be going well; I pray this continues!

The weather here is nice; however come tomorrow that will change.  Expected to get rain by tomorrow afternoon or evening; it's then supposed to get sharply colder, with temps in the 30's; we may even get some snow in the forecast.  Guess winter time isn't over just yet; after all it's only the 11th of March!  Winter is still officially here; not quite spring just yet!

Poor Louie has had a bad case of spring fever.  She is sick and tired of the winter conditions.  The recent warm weather will soon be a fading memory in a day or two, as winter returns.

She's enjoyed piddling around with her flowers; she loves being outside at any chance she gets. 

Well, I am going to go; the feeding's just about over. Have to take care of that, then put Jodie and Todd to bed for the night, as they have school tomorrow; they need to get their sleep.  I will write in here again soon; until then, this is Bill signing off!  Take care and God bless!

~Your friend, Bill.  :)

More I read about the Sanduslys and they menagerie of children, own and adoptive, with the myriad of problems, tears and smiles...more I thought what a book it should be!
