Just a little about a lot

I have 20 posts that I never finished for one reason or another.  Mostly because I am sure that they will offend somebody.

Lee's friend is coming into town tonight and will be staying until Sunday when Lee will head back to Tri-Cities with him and then come back on Monday.  I know it doesn't make a whole of sense to most people. But I don't owe people an explanation So I am trying to think of fun things for the kids and I to do but I am thinking that we will probably hang out at home after the soccer game maybe the kids will play with the neighbors.  I want to do some major decluttering in the kitchen.  After all that is my zone for this week and I have done nothing.  Hopefully I can get the little people to help. 

I want to try to make some stuffed crust pizza this weekend but we will have to see how that works. 

We have decided to stay here for Thanksgiving.  There are lots of reasons but time off is an issue as it the fact that Victoria would like to preform at the festival of trees this year again.  I think we limited to one performance probably the Boise one. 

I think we finally got Jake to come up with an idea for his Halloween costume.  Now we need some black leggings for Victoria and we will be good to go.  Victoria HATES wearing pants so she is going to have to start wearing more leggings as the weather gets colder.   She seems okay with it and today was the first day she wore them and she looked super cute.  She is anti warm tights as well because they are itchy.  Hard to disagree with that. Somebody told me that leggings don't belong in church but they don't get an opinion on what my daughter wears. 

The kids started something called Fab Five today.  Then had a ton of fun.

One thing about the hospital is that although it has low lows just like CPS unlike the state they usually only last a day.  But that is because I am only there once a month.  It will be nice when we are out of debt and the hospital money will become play money for things like vacations, 

We should be getting answers next week to some major questions.  But for now we are just living day to day.

Random Thoughts

I sometimes wonder where to draw the line in this whole blogging thing.  I could make us look like the "perfect" family or I could deal with all of our disappointment and make everybody think that we quite possible have the worse life ever.  Or maybe there is a middle ground somewhere that I have yet to find in this blog.  Today was a rough day.  Don't get me wrong I am so excited that everybody around me is having babies.  But for some reason today I was caught up in the losses all over again.  I am wondering when it stops.  Maybe it never does.  Maybe it will be a life time of wondering what if I would have gone full term.  Several people have asked when (or if) we are going to have another baby.  I am not sure.  Sometimes that answer is yes and sometimes it is no.  But one thing is for certain it isn't right now.  Really I don't need to have a ton of kids to fill some void.  I love my two kids and if that is all ...

Family News

What a weekend.  I blew out a tire 5 minutes into the trip and then had to switch out vans we hit some snow but nothing major.  The kids had a blast playing with the boys and although the bishop spoke too long at the ceremony the wedding was nice.  The reception was nice and the kids ran around with their cousins and Lee and I were able to catch up with everybody on their lives.  I am glad our kids are older and don't need constant supervision.  Several of Lee's cousins have kids in the 12-24 months age range.  That age is so hard and there was no way they would be able to run around with out adult supervision.  It was nice to get some family news like one cousin is a polygamist and another is getting married very shortly.   Another is traveling the world and another has made their home in the mountains.  One cousin is trying to qualify for the Boston Marathon and another is just trying to survive her husband's major depression.  Sev...

February

February was a tough month both mentally and financially.  The light at the tunnel was Phoenix.  Kids had a blast and it was great way to end an otherwise crazy chaotic month.  My goals were blah.  We paid off  more credit card debt then I though but I didn't sew as much as I wanted and I didn't run as much as I should have.  I also didn't read or declutter as much as I planned to.   Although I did reach my goal for losing weight.  So not a total loss. At some point I will file taxes and write a check to the state of Idaho.  I keep putting it off for several reasons.  At some point we will a check from FSA and our gap insurance.  Although a ten page EOB probably will take a while to get through. I think it was just one thing after another and I never felt like I gained my footing.  Maybe because I worked more.  Which lead to more in savings.  Still not where I want to be.  But better then it coul...
