Disappointing and then Happy Stuff

So many things that are disappointing and then so many good things.  Kids started dance and soccer tonight.  I think it will be a great season for both of them.  Jake has two kids we go to church with on his team.  The first time ever he has known boys on his team.  I am always so grateful for the coaches who take time away from their families to spent time with my son. 

One thing I struggle with more then anything is being lied to.  I am pretty sure why it bothers me perhaps more then the average person but it hurts,  there is one person in my life who lies all the time about the dumbest stuff.  It has been an ongoing issue.  

Then Jake and Victoria both found out that their best friends will not be in their class this year.  Jake has three good friends and they are all is different classes.  Which is good in the sense that all of them won't be together bad in the way that Jake is disappointed.  Victoria's situation is way different her and her friend are very quiet and soft spoken and so it is more of a struggle for them to make new friends. I am glad we found out today instead of waiting until the first day of school.  I just emailed the principal. Uggg....

Anyway tomorrow is the last unofficial day of summer.  I work Thursday-Saturday so tomorrow is going to be the last day I have to play with the kids before Monday.  I am thinking the pool.  I am dreading having to get up early.

There is a a slight chance that the job I was offered I may turn down.  The hours aren't quite what I thought they were going to be.  Once again Uggg....

Andrew is getting healthier thank goodness.  Luke is getting cuter.

I need to post my pics from this summer.  Nap time on Monday perhaps???

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...
