This week is going to be busy. Good news is I am only working half the week. Bad news is I need to pack the kids and myself find swimming suits. Lee isn’t working on Wednesday which should help. But I am at the hospital all weekend.


Yesterday Lee’s sister called to say that she was coming to visit for a day. Then a few hours before she was suppouse to arrive she texted to say she was not coming after all. The kids were disappointed. But they got to sleep on the new sofa sleeper so it worked out.

So back to a busy week. Tonight we have a birthday party for extended family. I am hoping to get out of here on time so I can go. Lee has a manitory meeting tomorrow at work at six in the morning and I am working. Tuesday I have an ultrasound which we are taking the kids to. Thursday we are leaving for Utah but not before swimming lessons and Lee has an appointment. The appointment should be about 30 minutes. Although I am guessing it will be longer.

After this weekend I only work one more day at the hospital before the baby arrives. Right now the focus around our house has been the bike trip. But Lee doesn’t seem as ready as he was in years past. Maybe that is because he has gone on so many he knows exactly what he needs.

The hospital is slow this morning. Too slow. I am afraid it will all fall to pieces shortly. If this keeps up then I may be doing several more posts.

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 ...

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...

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...
