Preschool and Other random thoughts

Andrew started preschool yesterday.  I think it will work out well.  He loved it.  When I asked how it went he told me"I didn't punch anybody."  Ummm...okay I will take that as a win since he has been a little aggressive lately. He is 95% potty trained.  He just one day woke up and decided he was done with diapers.   I am not sure why.  He is staying dry at night and during nap time.  I drug Luke to a PTO meeting with me because well where else where he going to go?  But it worked out well.

This morning I went and helped sort uniform for Jake's soccer league. Went pretty well with the boys but I wish I could have stayed longer.  First practice starts tonight.  It is  going to be a crazy seven weeks. But I think it will be good.

Somebody at work quit.  So I offered to pick up some extra hours in the next few weeks.  Although most of the shifts they need covered I am already working that day which is probably a good thing.  Because I would say yes to almost all of them.

Our plans for the first weekend in October have changed four times.  We are now certain that we are not going dirt biking in Oregon but that is it.

We spend Labor Day weekend in Kamiah.  It was shocking to see how one decision most likely saved my inlaw's home I wish it wouldn't have rained all day Saturday we ended up missing some stuff at Kamiah Days.

2 weeks until the half marathon and I feel totally unprepared but I am going to run it anyway.  To prove I can.  Because I know I can do it.  

Neay five months and still no resolution in Lukes accident.

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.
