Good day....

Besides getting Andrew out the door  Andrew is not a morning person and drop offs at school have not been going super great so we decided to have him ride the bus.  Lee took him to the bus today and while drop off didn't go super well Andrew made it on the bus and  to school and his teacher he has the first half of the week said he was doing well when she saw him this morning. 

I dropped Jake off at school and then went to Target for snacks for preschool.  Luke went right into to preschool and gave his teacher a hug.  Then I went to the elementary school to spend an hour in the kindergarten class.  I love being at the school and may start subbing there next year.

Then I went and got Duke and spend the day at work.  Which has been great.  The intern told me she  switched shifts so that she could work with me instead of the other social worker and told me how much she loved working with me.  The new social worker told me he would switch shifts with me so I could go to the kids' final meet of the season. 

I finally canceled my life insurance saving us $40 a month and today is pay day.  DOUBLE YEA!!!

Plus I got to text with one of my favoritest people :))))

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. Kids are at their breaking point and wether or not they know it they need schedules and some stablness. 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.
