Vactions and maybe some weight gain

We gave the kids the option of two places for this years family vacation.  We are going in October and it will be 4-5 days instead of the 10 from last year because this summer is too crazy to try and plan something.  Although Lee has said he does want to do a few weekends trip.  We are going to Silverwood in June so it isn't as though there won't be any vacations this summer.  Also the trip they picked is really based on the weather.  If the weather is bad we will go with plan B. 

I love planning vacations.  I think family vacations are so important.  But since we will be gone over our weekend I need to find another weekend for a weekend away with just Lee and I.  Although it will probably be in November.  Maybe right before I head back to work. 

In a week we are heading to Kamiah for a long weekend.  Hoping the weather will be nice so we can go 4-wheeling. 

It is going to be a nice weekend.  The weather will be great.  There will be soccer and dinner with cousins (kid free well our kid free).  Lee is going to the Hunger Games and I am in search of a dress that doesn't make me look like a whale.  Harder then it sounds. 

Funny story at work today somebody mentioned I was starting to look pregnant and two people didn't even know I was until today.  Almost half done and people are just now noticing.  Maybe that means I have finally started putting on some weight.

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.

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.
