Sickness & Motherhood

It seems that sickness has just raced through out house.  Victoria got it first Wednesday night and she had it the worst and then Jake got sick and then Lee is now feeling it.  I feel tired and worn out but it is hard to tell if it is stress or actual illness.  So now I am sitting here watching Motherhood with Uma and Minnie Driver.  It is good so far although it could change at any moment.

I have a love hate relationship with day light savings.  I love the summer nights where the sun doesn't go down until 10 at night.  But the Sunday that the time changes is so hard.  It takes me at a week to adjust to the change.  Plus we have nine o'clock church so that is like eight o'clock.  We can't skip because we have to teach the four year olds.  Plus I am not so sure that it is such a great reason anyway. 

Okay the movie isn't great but not horrible.

School starts Tuesday and comments about how people hope my kids dont kill their teachers with COVID is neither helpful or accurate. Plus we had a budget meeting after months of no meetings. In which we found out that we had once again over spent in August. Which could have been stopped if we would have known earlier in the month. I sent $1500 to student loans. Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
