Disappointing and then Happy Stuff

So many things that are disappointing and then so many good things.  Kids started dance and soccer tonight.  I think it will be a great season for both of them.  Jake has two kids we go to church with on his team.  The first time ever he has known boys on his team.  I am always so grateful for the coaches who take time away from their families to spent time with my son. 

One thing I struggle with more then anything is being lied to.  I am pretty sure why it bothers me perhaps more then the average person but it hurts,  there is one person in my life who lies all the time about the dumbest stuff.  It has been an ongoing issue.  

Then Jake and Victoria both found out that their best friends will not be in their class this year.  Jake has three good friends and they are all is different classes.  Which is good in the sense that all of them won't be together bad in the way that Jake is disappointed.  Victoria's situation is way different her and her friend are very quiet and soft spoken and so it is more of a struggle for them to make new friends. I am glad we found out today instead of waiting until the first day of school.  I just emailed the principal. Uggg....

Anyway tomorrow is the last unofficial day of summer.  I work Thursday-Saturday so tomorrow is going to be the last day I have to play with the kids before Monday.  I am thinking the pool.  I am dreading having to get up early.

There is a a slight chance that the job I was offered I may turn down.  The hours aren't quite what I thought they were going to be.  Once again Uggg....

Andrew is getting healthier thank goodness.  Luke is getting cuter.

I need to post my pics from this summer.  Nap time on Monday perhaps???

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...

When you know somebody is having a hard time in their marriage.  Pull them closer.  Ask to take the kids for a weekend.  Bring them dinner.  Reach out to them.  Ask them how they are doing.   Don't insist on visiting or having them visit you.  Know that their world feels like it is falling apart and it is taking every bit of energy to put on a good face for the kids and to work and run a household.  And it is has to be done while they continue to reside with somebody who they are struggling to have the most basic of conversation with.

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...
