Adjusting

 So the study time has been an adjustment, but I must admit, its not as much time as I thought it was. It does not seem to take much out of the day at all. I think maybe the kids realize that as well. I had much less fighting over today's time. Of course we did not go to the library today as we have Monday and Tuesday. Promise had an orthodontist appointment and so we were pressed for time.

 I had started dinner before I ever got the kids, so that was ready to go and even EARLY in time for Awana's Even though it was a busy day I seemed to get everything done, keep the whole house fairly happy and feel happy myself. Life was good today.

 Got a trampoline off Craigslist. I love that site! Anyway we go pick it up Saturday, hopefully, after taking it apart we can figure out how to get it back together!!! The kids cannot wait, me either. I could use the giggles. I cannot jump on a trampoline without giggling.

 Oh and another plus, Promise had math today, fractions even and I REMEMBERED how to do the stuff!!! wooot go mom. This studying every day will be good for me too!!! By time its Hannahs turn to do it I will know my stuff, WELL! :)

 So after yesterday having a huge tantrum, feeling so stressed out, and bitchy... Today I chose to try a little harder, and be a little more open minded and today I had a good day. I needed a good day.

    I saw your newest post, and how D texted you about her good grade. See, she cares... and you're doing a wonderful thing for her enabling her to do well. She can blame you, and not seem like a nerd, for studying. Heh!

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have ...

Done Growing

 Well soon enough it will be the start of a new school year. Sooner for my younger two, than for my older two. So today we went to get a few things that will be needed. Some shoes, socks and backpacks. Mommy needed a new pair of shoes too, I wear mine out pretty quickly being on my feet as a waitress.  So my son is about the pickiest shoe person out there. Nothing fits. We have to try on like every.single.shoe. in his size before he can choose. Its irritating and stressful. Hannah was pretty easy although she did not take the cheaper "on sale" pair I liked best. Either way she was quick and painless.  So then mom's turn. I put on a pair of 6.5 I wear those or 7's depending on the shoe. I wanted to try those new shoes with the curved bottom. Anyway... I get the 6.5 on and Hannah feels for my toes. "Oh you better get a size bigger" She says. "Those wont last the whole school year!" I told her I did not have to worry about outgrowing my shoes. My ...
