Planning for 2016...Just a little delayed.

So I love planners. I had a little one last year and bought a small one in December 2015.  But it wasn't enough.  I kept looking for the perfect one and although I am not sure I found it I think I found something close enough.  It is called the "Mormon Mom Planner" and I figured I would give it a try.  I have nothing else to lose really except $40 and I figure I can always go back to my old one if the new one does not work.  It has been years since I have carried a planner before half way through last year.  But I enjoy being able to just write stuff down and have it there.  I don't really like Google calendar although I have tried to use it.  There was an online one I really liked ....now I can't recall the name but it was great for online but really I am a pen and paper kind of girl.  So for the next week I will use my small planner and then hopefully before our trip to McCall I will have it so I can sit in the condo and plan stuff.  I almost talked myself out of it because January is almost over but 2016 isn't even close to being over so I ordered it.  And If  I like it I can order it for next year.  Or I will be back to searching for one I like.

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.
