Who Cares????????

I want to start this post by saying I do not follow college sports.  Well I follow Notre Dame football.  So when I found out that one of BYU basketball players was out for the season my first and only thought about this was "Who Cares?"  How is it national news that this kid is going to get kick out of BYU?  Really?  People are being killed in a war in Iraq.  Tanks are running people over in Lybia. Three babies under the age of 18 months were in foster care in our region  in the past 30 days for broken bones.  One had two broken bones and one had 13 bones broke. Plus we had a few shaken babies and a few other unmentionables.  I don't care that some kid had sex or a beer or whatever it is that is going to make him leave BYU.  A few of my friends were posting about it on FB.  I had no clue about it until I Googled him.  

If he is forced to leave he will probably just end up at another university.

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.
