What it is...

What I really want to write I don't feel I can.  And there is nothing else I want to write. 

I am disappointed but it may work out in the end.   My biggest frustration is that people waited until the last minute and then said it was out of their control.  Which isn't true.

One of the feelings I struggle with most of all is the feeling of being left out.  There has been a few times over the last few weeks where I felt it.  In Kamiah, at work and at church.  But we are moving on to good friends the supportive ones who trust our judgement and are our friends in the worst of times. 

I am so glad May is over.  Lee's friend died and so Lee flew back to Arizona to attend a funernal. The house still isn't back together.  The cancer treatment isn't working.  

The good stuff about May:  my kids having fun playing with their cousins in Kamiah, visiting good friends over the long weekend,dress rehearsals  and the excitement of the last day of school.  There was also a father son camp out. Oh yea and soccer.    New treatment that we will find out next week if it is working.

June is starting out okay.  We may not be going up North like we planned when Lee is on his trip.  I started working out and Victoria rocked the dance recital.   Lee is filling the stress of getting the house under control before June 21st.  I applied for a job and Lee is back to looking for a new job.

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...

A Little COVID Update

SO what have been up to. Lots of nothing COVID sent me into a huge mess of depression and anxiety that I have slowly been getting through thanks to medication. The medications have made me a much better mom and wife. We spent a week with Lee's family at his family reunion last week. There was so many good fun times but there was also some frustration where Lee and I felt like we were the built in babysitters and people kept just leaving their children with us. I tried to be compassionate but sometimes it is hard. We are thankful for all the great memories we had, older kids got to go to Lagoon with their cousins which was fabulous despite snide comments about how much we make and what we can afford. We are thankful for Lee's brother and family hosting and always for the generosity of Lee's dad and Gina. And Lee's cousin took amazing pictures Jake got his permit and overall isn't such a bad driver just inexperienced. Marching band sort of kind of was cance...

Covid 19

Words can not expressed the range of emotions I am feeling at the moment.  One week ago we had it all planned out.  Then Covid happened.  And the whole world was suddenly on hold.  Kids had school Monday but then have been out for ten days and are scheduled to return on the 20th of April.  However most people think that is unlikely.  My heart is breaking for graduating seniors.  We cancelled our trip to Zion which may have happened any way because it was calling for snow.  I hope we will rise from this stronger but right now I feel like curling up in a ball and crying. Lee now has work at home options since we have not been put on "lockdown" at this point although several other areas and cities across the county including a few in Idaho have been. I try and  look for the good.  Healthy kids, good weather, lots of projects we put off being completed.  But some moments it feels like we are missing on so much. We did church at ho...
