Busy Busy....

Well this week has been crazy busy.  I have been working out and staying on task for the most part.  Which is good.  I feel better, I am getting strong and the pounds are coming off.  Which is always a plus right?!?!

I finished up my last official week of homework.  After many hours I am DONE.  For now....  Looks like I will be registered for another class for the fall just to brush on skills and the new ICD 10 that is coming out.  Now for my final interview and finding a job.

I have some really good leads with people I know so I am praying that will benefit me.  Just be lifting up that I am able to secure employment that will be beneficial for my family.  Especially after all the schooling and what not.

This weekend we are having on last weekend away.  Headed up to my friend cabin.  I am really looking forward to it.  Some nice long walks and cool weather will be nice for all of us.

Then mom fly s in on Wednesday night with my neice and the girl party will commence!  I am excited about that!!!

Hope everyone has had a great few weeks!

Some days you wanna scream. But you find the JOY.

Since my last update the kids and I have been busy.  We have been on 2 camping trips in May and June. We went home to MN for 17 days and hard loads of fun.  Went to Canada fishing, made the rounds to the sisters home and spent the majority of the time with mom and dad.  It was so nice and relaxing to be around family.  This trip was particularly hard.  I am missing them more than words can say.  But I have these fun memories to make the days better!  These are just a few!  I had so much fun and am grateful for my time with all of them!

Trying to keep moving forward through the HARD days.  I just typed it all out, but I really don't need to put that negatively out there.  I need to continue to find JOY in all I do.  School is in its final weeks. Please pray that I am able to finish strong and that I will be blessed with a job in my new career sooner than later. Pray that my boys have a good start to there new school year.  I am very worried about Jacob.  He has tons of anxiety and we have seen that really come out in the last week.  I want so badly for him to be successful but its hard to know what to do and am I really helping. I am thankful for the handful of friends I have in my life now to help me through this phase of life.  Turning 40, single parenting, and being single.

I think that is one thing I have really learned.  Less is more.  I always have tried so hard to make so many people happy.  In the end many of them took advantage of that.  So I have let go of people.  I missed them at first.  Now, I have no desire to be surrounded by them.

I am lucky girl.  I have friend in MN.  Like Sara L, who took VACATION days to see ME at my mom and dads.  I have my BESTIES who made there way to farm on Thursdays.  I have my MICHELLE who is always there and no matter the distance between us we will be solid BFF's!!  My 5 gals here in AZ.  You know who you are.  You are steady and true.  Oh and my SISTERS.  Who could forget them?  They are my #1 fans and my biggest support system. They answer day or night.  Laugh and cry with me. They are the best.

Overall I need to try harder to post on here.  Not such a big fan of Facebook these days.  Who could really say all of this?  And why do a bajillion people need to read it?  They don't. :-)

I suppose since I am at a stand still I should clean...  Mom is coming in a few weeks. I need to regain control of my house!
