Bonus...

Just got an email stating the amount of our bonuses.  It is three times what I guessed it would be.  I am so happy and overjoyed.  The money will be going into our vacation account.  Then after all the vacations are done and over with for the summer I will take a look and see what is left over.  I am assuming there will be some left over but, vacations are always more then you planned on spending so we will see. 

I am working at the hospital for the next two days.  Then one more shift on the 31st and then nothing until 4th of July.  It will be nice in June to focus on having fun and working just one job. 

I am guessing that the judge next week will order me to move a child to Tulsa.  I don't want to move another child but then time I am going to fly in one day and out the next.  I don't really have anything I want to see or do in Tulsa.  Plus the town I am going to is an hour away.   Anyway, I need to have the house put together before I leave Lee.  His cousin is coming over to move some stuff inside so we can start working on getting things put away.  Most of the stuff is being given away or thrown away.  Still need to do some painting. And some big time organzing.  Once the inside is done we need to focus on the yard.  So much to do out there.  It just never ends.

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...

Time to dust this off

L:ong story short I came across something that made we want to add back to this. Not sure why but hwere we go. Life is constantly chaning and I feel so mnuch surround bu death lately. Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...
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.
