I love it here

Victoria and Jake were at the doctor today.  Jake had a follow up from the rash.  He is still having problems that I will not discuss on here and I am hoping that what the doctor suggested will help. Victoria had her well child check.  She is of average weight but way taller then average.  Our doctor asked if she was going to play basketball and she said she is going to be a ballerina.  He told her that would be good too. 
Mine in-laws were in town.  It is always nice to have them drop by on the way home from their adventures.  Maybe one of these days they will allow us to tag along. 
More and more I am so grateful for my friends.  Those amazing people who have been around since forever and some a little later in life then that. 
Lee feels better about things since yesterday.  He told me we were going to be just fine. Not sure what that means but I am trusting in my husband's insight and faith.  Several rejection letters/emails today. We are now extending our job search outside of the wonderful Northwest.  I was asked today if I really loved where we lived.  The answer was Yes.  I don't want to leave here but I will if I have to.  I love where we live.  I love being close to family, camping,hiking,boating and boarding.  I love being so close to Target and Win-Co.  I love knowing the good mechanics in town.  I love the four seasons.  I love having an airport near by. I love that I am established in my job and I work well with my co-workers. 
The other thing I love is having a doctor that knows us.

 I would not have done well crossing the plains. Pretty sure I would have had a hard time not knowing the plan.  I am sure I would have kept asking,"Okay what after we get to the SL Valley? Then what are we going to do?" I would have tried to plan the future the whole way there and would have failed horribly.

This week was a Struggle

This has been a tough week. I worked some extra hours which were only five hour shifts but were still were time away from the kids. Kids are at their breaking point and wether or not they know it they need schedules and some stablness. 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. There
