Randomness

At the hospital. Hard to say no to time and half  Busy morning but now I think it is slowing down.   Lots of patients going home or going other places.  I have been so cold all the time.  I have to step outside to warm up.  Everywhere appears to have their a/c turned up to twenty below. 

Looking forward to dinner and fireworks with friends and family tonight.  Kids have been asking all week when we could go get some.  Lee is taking them today. 

The new cancer treatment isn't working.  They are trying something new if the insurance approves it next week.  I think the time is limited and I don't think my dad has much of a fight left.  Plus we just keep getting bad news after bad news and I feeling like everything is spinning out of control.

Swimming lessons are going well.  Jake moved up a level while Victoria is doing level one again.  Sometimes it is hard to forget they are really a year apart.  Next year she will be where Jake is I have no doubt.  We (and by we I mean me) are considering joining the Rec Center.  The older kids are old enough that they will be able to pretty much do what they want while I work out and they have a babysitting place.  I am still trying to convience Lee.  Plus we would get discounts on swimming lessons, Jake's soccer and now Victoria is considering gymanstics.

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...
