If today was your last day...

I wrote a post and decided to wait.  This week has been rough more for Lee then me.  It looks as though in the next week or so he will be heading to Washington.  Death and dying is so hard.  Lee made a comment about how glad he is that he believes in life after death. It makes death a little easier to handle for him. 

This whole situation has made Lee decide we need to plan our funerals. Plus we still need to get our wills done.  Once again the struggle is who to leave the kids with,  we can't agree.  Plus I figured out that I need more life insurance on me. 

While I was writing this the song not sure the name but it says "if today was your last day..." So true.  

We did get some good news.  Which I think will make things in the long run change drastically.  Although I may be wrong.

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.

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.
