Decisions Decsions

I have been trying to make so many decisions lately.  Find a part time job or not?  Go to my sister in law's graduation or not?  I think that we already decided on that one.  Work in August or not?   The major decision after today is what to do with Jake next year for school.  Move him to fifth grade???  Fight the district????  Homeschooling????  Charter School???? If Jake home schools  Jake will still go to GT.   Charter school may be an option there is one near us that allows the kids to learn at their own pace.   After the email we got from the teacher today I am concerned with how it will look for Victoria next year.    I have been super impressed with the kids teachers they have gone way beyond for my kids and have pushed them to do their best.  Plus I have been impressed with the principal this year.  The older one who I really like retired and the new one is young and I wasn't sure how it would go.   

I worked today and I work on Monday.  I am not sure how I ever worked full time.  I think four days a month is my limit. I could maybe do eight days but that would have to be rare occasion.  Today was pretty stressful and I am not sure it ended well.  I made a huge mistake that cost me a ton of time but worked out in the end. (sort of)

It is nearly midnight and I should go to bed.  Busy busy dance weekend.  And busy tomorrow with assemblies and last day of school fun.

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...

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...

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...
