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).

Here is what we have been up to for the past couple of weekends,  Jake had his first soccer game.  Shawn came to visit.  Lee got a new RC truck that he loves and so do the kids.  They spend the weekend chasing the truck which totally wore them out.  We did some gardening.  Victoria and I went to Weiser to a baptism of one of my previous foster kids.  It was so great to see the family again.  I really miss seeing them on a monthly basis.  We played newspaper tag with Shawn and Demitri. Grandma Gina and Grandpa Don stopped by for a little while on their way home.  Oh yea and the primary had a bug day where the kids dressed up like bugs.  Victoria was a butterfly and Jake was a bee.  I  have four more days left of the semester.  Lee is in Kamiah this week to spend some time with Shawn before basic as well as some other things. 

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.
