Randomness

At the hospital. Hard to say no to time and half  Busy morning but now I think it is slowing down.   Lots of patients going home or going other places.  I have been so cold all the time.  I have to step outside to warm up.  Everywhere appears to have their a/c turned up to twenty below. 

Looking forward to dinner and fireworks with friends and family tonight.  Kids have been asking all week when we could go get some.  Lee is taking them today. 

The new cancer treatment isn't working.  They are trying something new if the insurance approves it next week.  I think the time is limited and I don't think my dad has much of a fight left.  Plus we just keep getting bad news after bad news and I feeling like everything is spinning out of control.

Swimming lessons are going well.  Jake moved up a level while Victoria is doing level one again.  Sometimes it is hard to forget they are really a year apart.  Next year she will be where Jake is I have no doubt.  We (and by we I mean me) are considering joining the Rec Center.  The older kids are old enough that they will be able to pretty much do what they want while I work out and they have a babysitting place.  I am still trying to convience Lee.  Plus we would get discounts on swimming lessons, Jake's soccer and now Victoria is considering gymanstics.

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.

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...
