I am going back to school

Sort of anyway,  I found this website that is doing free college courses.  I started my first one this week.  It has been a great class so far and I am hoping to complete about one a month.  I feel like I have gone of let my mind turn to mush and I want to start working on gaining more knowledge.  I am hoping at some point I can talk Lee into letting me go back and get my drug endorsement.

I think I have the summer planned mostly anyway.  Kids only have less then three weeks left of school.  The first week they are doing a science camp in the morning.  The second week we will doing our reutine and the following week we will be in Utah for a family reunion.  Our plan of going up to my mom's cabin the first week of June doesn't look like it will happen although we may go the second week of June. 

So next school year I may have gotten in way over my head...I agreed to be the service leader for my MOPS group and the voluenteer coordinator for the PTA.  Both things are causing me to step way out of my comfort zone but I think both will be good things.  Lee is concerned I will be too stressed out and that I am taking on too much.  Umm...Maybe.  Time will tell. 

I need to get some pictures up on here.

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.

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
