Happiness all around

Today while I was at work I noticed one of my sister in laws was online.  We have had minimal contact for various reasons but we actually had a good chat. She stated something to me that I have been thinking for a while.  I have heard other family members say the same thing.  I am much closer to the situation so I have to keep my mouth shut and just deal the best way I can.    The person in the situation knows that they are that way so I guess that is all I can say.  Also I was able to share with my sister in law some information and she was very happy for me. It is nice to have people genuinely be happy for what we are doing in our lives. 

I had a good productive day at work.  I found something over the weekend that I have been looking for for months.  Now I need to use it.

I think I have my groove back.  Back to helping around the house back to cleaning and organizing. Not sure how long it will last. 

Still waiting for the doctor's appointment on Wednesday. It would be helpful if Lee thought it was nothing but he just isn't sure. 

Jake is writing his Valentines for the party tomorrow.  Victoria started a new class today and will get two Valentine's parties.  Plus she got a "100" party today at school.  She seems to be adjusting to the new class but time will tell 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.
