Crazy couple of weeks

The last ten days have been crazy.  Last Friday-Sunday we went to visit family iin Kamiah.  Cousins had a great time running around.  Lee had a great time running around like a kid with his brother.  I got to play Capture the Flag for the first iin forever.  Even Andrew played.  Monday I took the older kids and my neice to Lagoon.  It was a scary ride down there.  I blew a tire driving 80 miles an hour down the free way.  Two angels stopped and changed my tire and I can never ever repay them.  But after two expensive tires we made it to Lagoon.  We had a blast.  However, I never got to ride the newest roller coaster but Jake did twice and really enjoyed it.  We stayed in a really nice hotel that I am certain we would have never stayed at if it wasn't for the fact it was free.  Thanks to bad customer service the last time we stayed there. 

We came home and a few days later then Lee's sister and her daughter and his brother and family came to stay.  I had to work all weekend but it is what it is.  But the time I was home was a good time and the kids had so much fun with their cousins. 
The sad part about all of our adventures is there weren't alot of pictures taken. 

Today I had a PTA meeting and then a meeting at my PRN job and then I worked tonight.  Tomorrow will be nearly as busy.  I have a PTA obligation from 9 to when ever the kids melt down.  Then meet the teacher and then I work. 

Work has been slow and so I have been working on  schedule for when the kids are back in school next week.  I am really going to miss them.  I need to get more organized and get back to my cleaning and laundry schedule.  Off to look at my Pinterest pins.   

The day after we left Kamiah several fires started (thanks to lightening).  The fires are still burning and although some areas are "safe" some are not.  People have lost their homes. I keep watching for updates and praying for rain.  They have sent Alaska firefighters and National Guard is on it's way there and I hope and pray they are enough  Despite me trying to talk my mother out of it she insisted on going up tonight.  She is there safe and will go to check out the cabin tomorrow.  I think she just needed to go for peace of mind.

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 ...

It has been a week

Here is how the week went Monday: OUr 25th anniversary. I was sick. We went and tried a Cuban restrant not as good as the food we had in Miami but it was good. We love trying new local places. It ended in tears. I won't go into all the details but I am relaizing that this is not the marriage I want. I am open about what I need and we will go from there. Luke started wrestling. Tuesday: End of the year banquent for Luke and Andrew. Luke recevied the "Most Improved" Awared. Here is the thing about that. His coach talked about how during summer practice he wouldn't even run 100 yeards. He would just stop. At some point after the first meet it clicked and he just ran and did what he needed to do. He went up adn accepted the award with such confidence. Wednesday: Both boys had activities. Andrew had stayed home from school due to not felling wel. My guess is he just needed a rest. He was feeling up for going and making pizzas at the Bishop's hous...

Heavy Week

This week has been so heavy. I had a client pass away and I never got the closure I needed/wanted. Client was not my typical client. He was different and sassy and I looked forward to seeing him every week. Then we went to a presentation. When I tried to explain how dishonest the presenter was I felt ignored. We are pretty anti MLM anyway but not wanting to know is weird to me. There are big changes coming and I am not ready for all the changes. Might be good might be a diaster. Time will tell. Mom's surgery is scheduled in about four weeks. I feel as though she moved it for us. Which is for the best for everybody but still taking on guilt that is not mine to own. Listening to the news about the LDS church shooting/fire in Michigan has been so triggering. I hate that I feel all the all the feeings. How I can envision the people there and the screaming kids and .....on and on. I wonder what changes will come to the church now that prophet died. I hope ther...
