I don’t know where to start except
HERE.
So very much has changed since last I wrote.
I was telling a friend a few weeks ago that “I have this blog…that I haven’t
used in forever.” and talked about what I could write about. Being that my life
is dull. dull. dull compared to hers. I figured out I’d write about life.
Even though it is boring…
It’s MY LIFE.
OUR LIFE…and so worth
documenting.
I guess a basic update to keep myself
straight is the way to go. so here goes. As of today’s date:
Sariah is 18, lovely and a senior hoping to graduate in the spring. She is also
hoping to get her license finally and I
am hoping she seeks a job soon. New
friends and experiences are good things. There is a lot of hoping going
on.
Miranda is newly 16, in driving practice
mode, wrestling for the high school team, and doing student council. Spring track coming next. She is
the prettiest wrestler out there on the mat!! For sure.
Tallen is 8, active, funny, learning to
stand his ground with sisters and loves
being a Cub Scout. He LOVES
running, jumping and all loud play. He is well liked and has a good many
friends. He is my right hand man when I need help with anything.
Steven is medically retired from working
having been diagnosed with ALS at the end of July. *hate this disease that is
eating him alive from the
inside... *more on this in another post. it’s a doozie of a story!
And me? I am breathing.
I love working from
home. My Current projects include making products to increase my online business with ETSY, driving 2 teens
and an almost tween around to activities and school and hanging out with Steven and helping where I
can. I take deep breaths and cry in the
shower sometimes. I am slightly overwhelmed and trying hard to find balance in
my new normal. I love being home with Steven. He and I are a great team. Each
day is a new day…Random people will ask
how I am – “how are you today?” not even expecting and actual answer. I breathe
in and tell the truth. “Today is a GOOD day!” they are taken aback and tell me
how, yes, it is a good day. That brightens mine. If you need
anything made – let me know. I have to finish up a few orders but then I’m all
yours to brainstorm with.
There’s the SUPER QUICK UPDATE….
lovely & graduating. pretty
& driving. Fun & active. Retired & not-active.
BREATHING & working.
That’s us.
