Way too much!

Okay we watched way too much tv today.  But we also washed and folded four batches of wash.  We also cleaned the kitchen, made cookies and cooked a great dinner and mowed the back yard. All while Lee was gone.  We also had a soccer game and went shopping in downtown Boise.  I love being in downtown, 

Lee came home with all sorts of news.  Divorce, babies, new relationships, and the list goes on.  I am glad he is back to go to church with me.  It will be the first time in two years we have been able to go to classes together.  Hopefully the lessons will be as good as last week.  It is also the first time in almost five years that I haven't had to prepare a lesson before going to church. 

Lee got some information in Kamiah that made my heart hurt.  I think it was because I keep hearing it over and over and I feel left out.  Although I am excited for the family I am sad at the same time.  I am considering writing a whole post on it but I think it will come across offensive so I will just leave those thoughts to myself for the time being. Maybe in the next few months I will write about it.

LOCK DOWN

The governor came out on Wednesday and ordered a lock down.  It seems like a good idea and will not changed our lives all that much.  We did decided that we would only go to the grocery store once a week we went last Friday.  We will go tomorrow which means it will be nine days.  Kids haven't been in a store in weeks.  Lots of time in the garden and working on yard projects.  It has been good and bad.  More family time and less running around.  But lack of structure over the past two weeks has been tough.  Tomorrow would be the day the kids start back to school.  It is likely they won't be going back at all this year.  Victoria will be the most effected.  No eighth grade graduation likely   The school could decide to bring back just eighth and 12th graders.  Either way they are all out until 4/20.  "distance learning" will start for the kids on 4/13.  Which is another reason I think they will end the schoo...

Time to dust this off

L:ong story short I came across something that made we want to add back to this. Not sure why but hwere we go. Life is constantly chaning and I feel so mnuch surround bu death lately. Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...
When you know somebody is having a hard time in their marriage.  Pull them closer.  Ask to take the kids for a weekend.  Bring them dinner.  Reach out to them.  Ask them how they are doing.   Don't insist on visiting or having them visit you.  Know that their world feels like it is falling apart and it is taking every bit of energy to put on a good face for the kids and to work and run a household.  And it is has to be done while they continue to reside with somebody who they are struggling to have the most basic of conversation with.
