Randomness

Several things have been going on
1) Victoria has decided to do dance for another year.  Although I have another week before I need to register her and I am looking for other options.
2) Jake will be doing cross county starting the 15th
3) My review was done today for work.  Pretty much my boss said I was fabulous and the nurses enjoy working with me.
4) Refi is done and will fund tomorrow. Which means we will be able to take the remaining credit cards and transfer them into one bill.  Lee's car and several other debts will be paid off.
5)  The older kids are leaving us for eight days.  Not sure how I feel about it.  I am going to really miss them.
6) Budget is done and we will start using it the 15th.  It will be tight for several reasons.  a) Lee wants to go to Oceanside next summer b) I want the debt paid off quickly
7)  I am working ten extra days in October and September.  The money will be nice I figure it will be about $2000 "extra".  Probably spilt it three ways.  New Car, Vacation and Debt
8) For the first time in a while I moved my pay check to be deposited into our joint account. This caused me a bit of anxiety.
9) Jake will be doing orchestra staring when school starts.  I was a little surprised.  He wants to play the bass but I am not sure that will be an option due to the cost of renting one.  
10) We got the kids school schedules.  Jake is in all "advanced" classes.  I found out who Victoria's teacher will be for the fall as well.  Not sure how I feel about the teacher or the classes.
11) I have kept putting off potty training and once the kids are back in school I think I am going to see if we can get it done in a week. Luke keeps asking to go potty so I should probably do something to encourage him.
12) I started working out (again) a few weeks ago I feel better then I have in a while.
13) Andrew keeps asking when he gets to go to preschool and is excited that Duke is going with him.
14) Life is good and I can't complain.  Sad that we have so much going on in August and the kids are heading back to school at the end.
15) I over a conversation Lee was having with somebody.  I am quite certain the other person didn't know I could hear what was being said.  It made me realize that is likely somebody that I don't want to spend much time with. They are family so I will be around them when necessary but I won't be putting forth any effort. I need to move on. 
16) Our computer crashed and so I have no way to upload all the summer fun pictures.  :(

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...

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...

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...
