Blah Blah Blah...

Tonight I was going to go to a church function.  But I ended up sick. Jake was sick as well so he curled up with me and watch Cake Boss.  If I didn't have to teach tomorrow I would probably not even go to church.  Depending on how tomorrow goes I may send Lee solo. We will see.  I just found out that our taxes were denied.  Either because I type in my kids social wrong or my w-2 was wrong. I thought I was half done with the chapter two which is due on Friday.  Turns out the professor wants 20 pages.  Which means Monday, Wednesday I will be in the computer lab.  I am thinking that when everybody is asleep I will be doing some homework in the business center at the hotel.   I have the information I just need to get into the paper.  It is a rough draft that if I can get written in the format it should be then I should be able to at least get a passing grade out of it.  

Now that I am I home on Saturdays then the house is getting cleaner.  Every Saturday the kids get up and we do an hour worth of chores.  If they whine I tack on five minutes every offense.  One child cleaned for one hour and one got 10 minutes added. 

Next week will fly by and then the next week I am at the hospital one day.  Which means my Tuesday chores will not happen and I feel even more pressure on Saturday.  I guess two weeks in a row that will happen.  I just picked up another shift in April which gives me four in April.  Lee and I were discussing what to do with the hospital money.  I have some ideas but just not sure.  We shall see what will happen when I get the money.  Our two options are save it or pay off debt.  Pros and Cons on each side for sure.

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.
