Summer

Some things are going well some things not so much.  Such is life.  I am working at the behavioral health today.   The last week has been so crazy busy.  I took the kids to the cabin for several days.  Came home Wednesday and then worked Thursday and Friday.  Jake left for overnight scout trip tonight (His first one).  Getting him ready last night and out the door this morning was insane but we got it done and I am sure he will have lots of fun.  Lee is going to go up for the night.  So it will be me and the little boys and Victoria.  Victoria still isn't home.  We left her at the cabin to help my mom clean the cabin.  Sounds like they had a blast.  Jake will be going back up before the 1st to help again.  Just lots of little stuff that take up time.

Looks like we decided to refinance the house.  Which has been a lot of stress for me but in the end it will be the best thing.  But I don't know where to start. We are going to go talk to a loan officer at our credit union next week.

I have been working more then I originally wanted to.  But at this point especially with the refinance I want to keep my income higher then "normal" so that we can get our debt down and have a good income.  The other bad thing about the refinance is the home inspection so I am going to have to do some major cleaning. Too tired to think about that tonight.

Victoria made it home a few hours ago. At some point I need to get over to my mom's house to help her clean.

Once again so many things all little.

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...

Three Grandmas

With today being Mother's Day I wanted to write about my children three grandmothers.  Since this is my blog I am going to write about my mom first.  The kids love my mom and she is one of the most generous people I know.  She always makes sure the kids are well fed and have a good time at her house.  She was a good mom when we were growing up.  Dad traveled a ton and mom for the most part stayed at home.  But we always had dance lessons, tennis lessons and she some how found a way for us to get there.  I know how hard that is with the two kids I have. The other Grandmother I would like to talk about is Lee's Step Mother.  She has stepped in to grandmotherhood well.  She loves doing things with the kids like cooking and projects.  She loves the kids. She has become a great friend.  She is such a great house guest and a great hostess.  I can't imagine it was easy for her to jump into a family with six children and all their ch...
