Randomness

Several things have been going on
1) Victoria has decided to do dance for another year.  Although I have another week before I need to register her and I am looking for other options.
2) Jake will be doing cross county starting the 15th
3) My review was done today for work.  Pretty much my boss said I was fabulous and the nurses enjoy working with me.
4) Refi is done and will fund tomorrow. Which means we will be able to take the remaining credit cards and transfer them into one bill.  Lee's car and several other debts will be paid off.
5)  The older kids are leaving us for eight days.  Not sure how I feel about it.  I am going to really miss them.
6) Budget is done and we will start using it the 15th.  It will be tight for several reasons.  a) Lee wants to go to Oceanside next summer b) I want the debt paid off quickly
7)  I am working ten extra days in October and September.  The money will be nice I figure it will be about $2000 "extra".  Probably spilt it three ways.  New Car, Vacation and Debt
8) For the first time in a while I moved my pay check to be deposited into our joint account. This caused me a bit of anxiety.
9) Jake will be doing orchestra staring when school starts.  I was a little surprised.  He wants to play the bass but I am not sure that will be an option due to the cost of renting one.  
10) We got the kids school schedules.  Jake is in all "advanced" classes.  I found out who Victoria's teacher will be for the fall as well.  Not sure how I feel about the teacher or the classes.

11) I have kept putting off potty training and once the kids are back in school I think I am going to see if we can get it done in a week. Luke keeps asking to go potty so I should probably do something to encourage him.
12) I started working out (again) a few weeks ago I feel better then I have in a while.
13) Andrew keeps asking when he gets to go to preschool and is excited that Duke is going with him.
14) Life is good and I can't complain.  Sad that we have so much going on in August and the kids are heading back to school at the end.
15) I over a conversation Lee was having with somebody.  I am quite certain the other person didn't know I could hear what was being said.  It made me realize that is likely somebody that I don't want to spend much time with. They are family so I will be around them when necessary but I won't be putting forth any effort. I need to move on. 
16) Our computer crashed and so I have no way to upload all the summer fun pictures.  :(

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...
