Always Changing

So yesterday I was going to give notice I wasn't coming back to work after leave but after doing some research I found out that the state can come after me for the health insurance cost they paid while I was on leave.  It makes sense but it also means that either I have to go back to work for two weeks or pay back several thousand dollars.  Maybe????  The handbook states they can not that they will necessarily.  So I emailed HR to find out what my options are.  Really if we had the money it would be worth it to never have to go back.  But.....we will have to wait and see. 

But after some policy changes I found out about I don't think it is any longer a good fit for me to be there.  So the plan is to take the summer off and then find something part time in the fall.  I already have several trips planned.

The kids and I will be spending a week in Seattle/Portland
Five days for Yellowstone
Five Days in McCall
and in August we will be going to Lee's dad's house because his sister from Texas will be there. 
Lee's sister is having a baby in August so I may go up there after she has the baby but that is just an idea.

I am ready to move on despite how difficult it will be.  I am considering going back to school in the fall for a certificate so I can do drug counseling.  But I may wait another year on that. 

Luke is getting better every day so that is a blessing. 

Both boys are napping so I should clean before they wake up and I have to get the older kids from school.  Spring Break starts today.  :)

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...

Three Grandmas

With today being Mother's Day I wanted to write about my children three grandmothers.  Since this is my blog I am going to write about my mom first.  The kids love my mom and she is one of the most generous people I know.  She always makes sure the kids are well fed and have a good time at her house.  She was a good mom when we were growing up.  Dad traveled a ton and mom for the most part stayed at home.  But we always had dance lessons, tennis lessons and she some how found a way for us to get there.  I know how hard that is with the two kids I have. The other Grandmother I would like to talk about is Lee's Step Mother.  She has stepped in to grandmotherhood well.  She loves doing things with the kids like cooking and projects.  She loves the kids. She has become a great friend.  She is such a great house guest and a great hostess.  I can't imagine it was easy for her to jump into a family with six children and all their ch...
