This week

I wrote this on Sunday....

It has been quite the week.  I had a sibling in the hospital and there was lots of frustration around that.  Then I went to the doctor and she said everything looked on track for me to deliver near my due date.  Umm...I was sort of hoping that the baby would come sooner then that I am pretty sure that he will. But who really knows.  I have never made it to my actual due date so maybe to average things out this kids will come a few weeks late.

Everybody has thoughts on when I can or can not deliver.  The biggest thing is to make it through the work week and then I will feel better about having this baby.  Then somebody thought I was being induced this week.  Not sure where exactly that came from but then she questioned why I was still working if I was having a baby next week.  Because the plan is to work until I deliver.  12 weeks goes way too fast I don't want to spend one minute taking time off if I am not able to spend that time with my baby. 

Thanks to an amazing generous friend we now have a car seat.

My parents are taking the kids to the cabin tomorrow.  I guess I need to pack them.  They will be home Friday and then my parents will be gone Saturday-Saturday.  My mom said I can't have the baby while they are in Montana.  Actually I can.  :)


I worked at the hospital Sunday.  I will probably start picking up shifts there again in October. I am going to miss it.  I really like the hospital.

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...

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.

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...
