Early Morning

I love mornings.  I love getting up and working out and getting my batch of laundry done before sun up.  However, my body struggles with the idea of getting out of a warm cozy bed. So more often then not I am not up early.  However, this morning my alarm went off at 3:45 am.  I was taking my mother in law to the airport.  That was just over an hour ago.  I just walked in the house started the washer and now I am going to work out take a shower and be to work a little early.  That will make up for the few days this week I have been late and for the fact that I am leaving a little early today so we can get out of town. I love that my job is so flexible.

Jake's parent teacher conferences were yesterday.  Yup he rocks!  :)  His teacher adores him and he is way above on the benchmarks.  So his teacher raised Jake's goal.  He wasn't all that happy about it but I think it is good for him.  I also got to see some of Victoria's dance class.  She has so much personality when she is dancing.  Seriously the cutest thing ever. 

I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend.  I just wish the weather was better.

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.
