Ten minutes and GO

The author of another blog I follow wrote for ten minutes just to see what will happen.  So I am going to do that because my head is spinning right now. 

Yesterday I took on the position of the PTO President for the 2017-18 school year.  There were lots of reasons that I decided to that.  I may regret the decision in a few months but for right now I think it will be doable. 

Last weekend was insanity.  So many things going on on Saturday.  Really one of those days that you wonder how we got it all done. 

Scout fundraiser raise quite a bit of money which is good.  Just wish the ward support the girls in the same way it supports the boys. 

School and life is winding down although our summer will be busy it will be busy in a different way. 

We have a few vacations planned and I think getting away for a few days here and there is a good idea.  WE have our first camping trip planned in a few weeks and I am kind of nervous about it.  But Duke is now sleeping through the night with zero issues so it should go well. 

My half is in ten days I am wondering if this is all a big mistake.  I wonder that every time though.  I have already planned for one in the fall.  I want to drop my time and the only way to do that is going to be to push my self harder then I ever have.  Going to start a new training program as soon as I am done with this half.  Right now I want to focus on toning and cardio. 

I am picking up more shifts then I would like to but I always say that and it always gets done.

Amazing how fast ten minutes goes  :)

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.
