Five Weeks of Freedom!!!!

Well here I am at the end of the semester.  Life is good.  Five weeks of complete relaxation....Well there is that camping trip, trip up north to visit family. a trip down south.  I am also hoping to get my husband completely recovered. I have to still work full time and I have two kids that need their mother. Lee is doing so good.  His friend was in town this weekend and did wonders for Lee both physically and mentally.  We have the greatest people in our lives.  I am worried about how this semester ended up.  But I am done.  

I need to get physically and mentally healthy.  Plus I need to find time to get the house clean.  Time to make friends with Flylady again.  Lee has started applying for jobs.  Not sure what that means or where that will take us.

Bike trips and anniversary trip have been planned I am looking forward to one of them.  ;)

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.
