Busy Crazy Life

Today was so busy and it isn't the way I wanted it to go.  Lee had an eye appointment because he has decieded he wants to start wearing contacts.  He was gone over two hours this morning which shouldn't have been a big deal but the little boys were so upset about everything that I ended up putting Luke down for a nap.  Then Victoria and I went shopping.  We came home and walked out the door a few minutes later because we had to take our van to the mechanic and we are borrowing one of my mom's cars. 

Came home did a ton of work in the garage in a very short amount of time and I left for work. 

So somebody deleted me off facebook because she said I was too much drama.  What it came down to was she and I disagreed on how something should be handled and she thought I was attacking her.  Which I wasn;t she was just one of the 20 friends who had done the same thing  which I disagreed with.  Doesn't help that I go to church with this person.  She sent a very lovely message telling me I was judgemental and that I was wrong.  Oh well like one of my other friends just posted.  My friends list needed some cleaning up anyway. 

From Wednesday- Wednesday I will have worked seven out of eight days.  Tomorrow I work both jobs and then Wednesday is "only" a two hours of meeting.   Then I work Friday.  Then have a whole week off.  Hoping to get some decluttering and cleaning done but Thursday is my mom's group that I missed last time because of sick boys so I really want to go this time. 

We are having to make some cancelations/replanning of vacations.   I couldn't get the whole week off for Spring Break so Moab is out.  So new plan is SLC for several days.  Kids can still hike and we will find a hotel with a pool.  There is one that I really like. 

We have decieded not to go the beach this year but go next and to go to Disneyland in October.  I told Lee I would only agree to cancel the beach if we went to Disneyland.  We will go the beach next year which I think will be better but I am not even sure that will happen. 

So Lee has decided we need to camp more.  I really dislike camping for so many different reasons but I think the kids are at a good age and it will be fun family bonding (I hope).

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. There
