HEART BREAK HOTEL

It has been quite a week.  I have been surrounded by such heartbreak.  The three year old I mentioned in another post was buried on Friday.  I am still not sure why this effects me so much. It just hurts my soul.  Not sure what I would do if I were the mother

My BFF found out that her husband needed emergency surgery to remove and abscess that was eating away at his bone. He had the surgery yesterday and is heading home from the hospital tomorrow,  I hurt for them.  They have been through so much in such a short time and their support system is now 1500 miles away. 

The reunion went well lots of fun.  We went four wheeling and then we went boating and a little hiking wish there would have been more hiking. and there was poker,  Jake did great and won a few times. 

We are leaving tomorrow for the cabin and will be home on Friday or Saturday depending on how much work we get done up there. 

Still trying to figure out a plan for going down to Utah.  Maybe it is just one of those things that we just have work out as it gets closer. 

Luke is so close to sitting up and crawling it is scary,  and teething,  oh how I hate teething,

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.
