leaving (again) and selling

So I have mentioned before that I am going through a struggle. I really feel as though there is nobody in real life who I can talk to about it.  So I go to online forums which help somewhat.  I am feeling better about where things are going. Lee's cousin said something this week which really struck me.  She didn't even know it and probably never will.  She said if X is true then Y has to be true as well.  When I mentioned that there was such a rocky history and so many problems.  She said there is problems right now.  But once again we have to move past it.  We have to be united.  The problems I feel as though perfection is expected and when it isn't achieved then I struggle.  Since I can not be perfect maybe I should quit right now. 

I am getting rid of tons of stuff.  Lee wants a garage sale on the 27th so I have a few weeks to declutter. We have mostly baby and kid stuff. Plus a kitchen table and maybe some dishes. Lee and I have very different ideas on the sale.  Oh well I am thinking it may be our last garage sale.  It is worth a shot right?

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.

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.
