Started this on Wednesday and I just now finished...

On Wednesday I went to help my mom declutter and pack up one of her rooms.  Way more emotional then I thought it would be.  Of course we picked the room with the most sentimental stuff which is why i think my mother ignored it.  Every year my mother has given us books for Christmas.  In the study were several books where she had written in for Christmas for my father.  But what I didn't know is my father had done  the same for her.  My mom asked that I check all the books to make sure they weren't written in before they were given away.  I also found my dad's 35 year award from work and his retirement certificate. But when I left my moms house we had boxed two boxes to be taken to storage and I had a load to take to DI.  My mom called it a success.

I found a PRN job for a psych hospital in Boise that I am think I will apply for.  I won't accept if the hours are not want will work for us. 

It was a crazy busy weekend.  Jake had soccer practice Friday and then Lee took the older kids to movie night at the school.  Kids ate way too much candy and had a great time even though there were some issues with the movie.

Victoria went to her cousin's birthday party Saturday and got a pedicure and pizza.  Then my mom took her from the party to do some shopping.  She got some new clothes that were super cute and some one on one time with "Maga".  Jake had a soccer game (they lost) coach and Lee said it was the best game yet and the boys played very well and everybody was proud of them.  Tounrament is next week and then straight to indoor soccer which is a new thing for us. 

Saturday night we ran a 5k as a family.  Both Lee and I had a hard time keeping up with the kids.  Lee blamed the double stroller which probably play into it but truth is our kids are in much better shape then us.  Victoria did a program called "Girls on the Run"  it is such a great program so great that I offered to volenteer for the next season helping with paperwork and such.  I am glad that by not working I am able to put more time into community events that I support. 

Today after I left for work the kids went to my mom's with Lee to carve pumpkins.  I only cried a little. I was so upset that I missed out.  Lee reminded me of all the stuff I have done with the kids with out him.  Good point but still annoying.  Kids had a good time and Lee said this was the first year they didn't need help. 

Looking forward to another busy week.  Two soccer games two soccer practices.  Two girls on the run.  On fitness night at the school.  One dance night.  One scout night.  One preschool morning.  One feild trip with Jake.  Three Haloween parties one for each of the kids.  Although those  are during pre/school times.

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...
