Yesterday

I spent all day yesterday with the flu.  It was horrible.  I couldn't even keep water down.  Today is going better but since I didn't get done what I needed/wanted to do yesterday I know that today I will probably end up doing too much and then crash at 6.  On Friday morning Jake woke up throwing up.  Although he was super low on energy he did pretty well the rest of the day.  Andrew threw up all over me and the car on Friday night while we were leaving the Festival of Trees and while he has been a little bit of a trial the last few days and sleeping more that is the only time he threw up.  Saturday morning around midnight it hit me like a ton of bricks.  I spent most the day in bed yesterday and the few times I did get up it was a bad idea.  I really think if I wasn't pregnant it wouldn't have been so bad.  When I landed it the hospital when I was pregnant with Victoria they said it is a vicious cycle and that I needed to stop the cycle.  Still super nauseous today and I feel weak.  But it is noon and everything seems to be staying down.  Crossing my fingers Lee and Victoria don't get sick. 

We are having a lazy day at home.  It is noon and Victoria is still in her pj's.  Plus the TV is on.  Something we don't usually allow on Sundays.

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.

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

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.
