What a day

Today was a crazy day.  Luke was up at fie which may have been doable if I didn't go to bed at one.  He laid with is until 6:30 when I woke the kids up but he was so restless neither one of is really slept. Then I laid him back down around seven and Andrew fell asleep with me until nine which is way later then we ever sleep.  Then it was rushing around running errands.  Andrew refused to nap.  Which means minimal cleaning because I kept putting him in bed.  I got six letters from insurance stating they were refusing to pay six bills.  So an hour later and several phone calls only to be told I have to wait several months to figure it out.  The insurance adjuster didn't respond to our request o settle which may be for the best.

Work was crazy I was swore at and hit on.  I was lied to.  I came home emotionally drained.  But the night went quickly and I am glad to be home watching tv and trying not to cry.  After my previous breakdown today I would say sometimes all you can do is cry.

Somedays the realization hits me that I proved my point.  That some relationships are one sided and if I don't reach out then there is no communication because the other person doesn't bother to think about us.  Maybe some time in the future that will change but for now I am not getting my hopes up.

LOCK DOWN

The governor came out on Wednesday and ordered a lock down.  It seems like a good idea and will not changed our lives all that much.  We did decided that we would only go to the grocery store once a week we went last Friday.  We will go tomorrow which means it will be nine days.  Kids haven't been in a store in weeks.  Lots of time in the garden and working on yard projects.  It has been good and bad.  More family time and less running around.  But lack of structure over the past two weeks has been tough.  Tomorrow would be the day the kids start back to school.  It is likely they won't be going back at all this year.  Victoria will be the most effected.  No eighth grade graduation likely   The school could decide to bring back just eighth and 12th graders.  Either way they are all out until 4/20.  "distance learning" will start for the kids on 4/13.  Which is another reason I think they will end the schoo...

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.
