Spur of the moment

Lee FSo last night I was chatting with my friend.  She was overwhelmed and had some stuff going on so I talked to Lee and he said why don't you go see her.  So today before I could talk myself out of it I booked a ticket for the first weekend in May.  I feel a little sad because next weekend I will be running in Utah and then I work the following weekend and then the next weekend I will be in Phoenix.  I won't feel sad once I am there I am sure. 

I got of work over an hour later then scheduled and then driving home the car died.  Like no power no anything. So at 12:30 at night I had to call Lee to come get me but we couldn't leave the car where it was. So Lee called a friend.  
Things I  greatful for :
1) Lee was still awake 
2) car died close home 
3) Our friend lives close and was more then willing to come to our rescue 
4). Lee wasn't annoyed with the whole thing 
Lee test drove a car today and said he likes it so after a mechanic checks it out and our credit union issues a check to the seller 
Hopefully Monday we will have a new car.

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.
