Well its been a long time since I have posted last! Micaela and I had a BLAST on our vacation at the lake :-) It was so relaxing and some really good " girl time " for us that we both needed! While we were on vacation Gabe started school at his new school Imagine Schools... he wasnt all that excited at first but as the week progressed he got a little more excited and likes the school so far :-)
Then it was back to reality.... I went back to work, Micaela started her freshman year at Northrop :/ where does the time go they grow up so fast!!
I can't believe she is a freshman already, she was only 5 1/2 when I met Scott it is amazing just how fast time goes!!
In returning home I had laundry to do a house to pick up ( as I did have 2 boys living there with no girls for a week ) then I had to prepare myself to get ready to start classes the same day as Micaela as well as go back to work.. ( chloe was pumping me up about school ) I was already starting to have tiny panic attacks about all that was upcoming, school for 3 of the 4 of us, activities for the schools for the kids, showchoir for Micaela, Gabe and his school work, my school work, and then me being a Good Mom, a Good Wife and still getting some " Mama T time and friend time in there " but The husband helped settle me down and said that we would get thru this as we always do and he would support me no matter w
hat!! That helped :-)Coming back to work it felt nice to be back, and my desk wasnt all that much a mess like I thought it would be LOL... Then Monday night came my class and BAM instant information overload! I have a space set up at home for me to use as a study... So I have a place of my own to go and study and do homework! I have things all in place and organized and started working on homework last night up until 1am..... WHOA Mama T cant function well on just 5 hours of sleep LOL so we are going to have to do something about that!
As is life we are having some financial things that we need to work out, and it just has me a little stressed and a little down and I feel like a total failure as a person and as a parent and a wife. I am going to turn this around if it kills me so I started to create a monthly budget ( that will change from month to month ) since some of our bills change from month to month. And I will see how that goes because I can't take on another job right now and neither can The Hubs so we are going to work overtime and to the bone and we WILL turn this around! IT IS WHAT IT IS!!
Well I think that about does it for what is going on in the McDowell Household these days....
