Perfect timing



We always want to wait for that perfect timing.  Things are too busy right now.  We will take that family vacation when we have more money more time.  We will apply for the new job when we are secure in ours.  Waiting.  But it comes down to there is no time like right now.  People die everyday.  We need to do what we want to do today, not tomorrow.  There is time if you find the time.  There may not be time when the kids are older. 

So do it now!  Go visit grandparents now.  Send an I love you now.  Because nobody is promised tomorrow. Don't look back with regrets look back with fondness that you did what you did at the time.

So many things that I wish I hadn't put off.  That being said I am going to put off going back to school for another year. :)   There are some online classes I take free.  I don't want to ever stop learning something new.  There are some classes I am going to take through the city this fall or maybe the summer.  I want to learn how to use my camera more effectively. I also want a new lens. 

Lee is leaving tomorrow and won't be back until Sunday.  50 hours just me and the kids. 

Lacrosse is going well although Jake says in the fall he wants to go back to soccer.  Which is fine.  His best friend plays. So maybe that is why. 

Anyway life is good.  Luke is doing better every day I just wish he would sleep more at night. But that will come.

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

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.
