Just a little about a lot

I have 20 posts that I never finished for one reason or another.  Mostly because I am sure that they will offend somebody.

Lee's friend is coming into town tonight and will be staying until Sunday when Lee will head back to Tri-Cities with him and then come back on Monday.  I know it doesn't make a whole of sense to most people. But I don't owe people an explanation So I am trying to think of fun things for the kids and I to do but I am thinking that we will probably hang out at home after the soccer game maybe the kids will play with the neighbors.  I want to do some major decluttering in the kitchen.  After all that is my zone for this week and I have done nothing.  Hopefully I can get the little people to help. 

I want to try to make some stuffed crust pizza this weekend but we will have to see how that works. 

We have decided to stay here for Thanksgiving.  There are lots of reasons but time off is an issue as it the fact that Victoria would like to preform at the festival of trees this year again.  I think we limited to one performance probably the Boise one. 

I think we finally got Jake to come up with an idea for his Halloween costume.  Now we need some black leggings for Victoria and we will be good to go.  Victoria HATES wearing pants so she is going to have to start wearing more leggings as the weather gets colder.   She seems okay with it and today was the first day she wore them and she looked super cute.  She is anti warm tights as well because they are itchy.  Hard to disagree with that. Somebody told me that leggings don't belong in church but they don't get an opinion on what my daughter wears. 

The kids started something called Fab Five today.  Then had a ton of fun.

One thing about the hospital is that although it has low lows just like CPS unlike the state they usually only last a day.  But that is because I am only there once a month.  It will be nice when we are out of debt and the hospital money will become play money for things like vacations, 

We should be getting answers next week to some major questions.  But for now we are just living day to day.

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...

A Little COVID Update

SO what have been up to. Lots of nothing COVID sent me into a huge mess of depression and anxiety that I have slowly been getting through thanks to medication. The medications have made me a much better mom and wife. We spent a week with Lee's family at his family reunion last week. There was so many good fun times but there was also some frustration where Lee and I felt like we were the built in babysitters and people kept just leaving their children with us. I tried to be compassionate but sometimes it is hard. We are thankful for all the great memories we had, older kids got to go to Lagoon with their cousins which was fabulous despite snide comments about how much we make and what we can afford. We are thankful for Lee's brother and family hosting and always for the generosity of Lee's dad and Gina. And Lee's cousin took amazing pictures Jake got his permit and overall isn't such a bad driver just inexperienced. Marching band sort of kind of was cance...

Covid 19

Words can not expressed the range of emotions I am feeling at the moment.  One week ago we had it all planned out.  Then Covid happened.  And the whole world was suddenly on hold.  Kids had school Monday but then have been out for ten days and are scheduled to return on the 20th of April.  However most people think that is unlikely.  My heart is breaking for graduating seniors.  We cancelled our trip to Zion which may have happened any way because it was calling for snow.  I hope we will rise from this stronger but right now I feel like curling up in a ball and crying. Lee now has work at home options since we have not been put on "lockdown" at this point although several other areas and cities across the county including a few in Idaho have been. I try and  look for the good.  Healthy kids, good weather, lots of projects we put off being completed.  But some moments it feels like we are missing on so much. We did church at ho...
