So I woke up this morning and felt both lazy and guilty.  I IMed my mother to see how my son was doing - she said he seemed like he really took everything to heart.  I feel guilty having my family teach my son a lesson - shouldn't I be doing that?  Yet, when I was a teen, my poor mom could not say anything that would make a difference.  I am hopeful that this hits home and is his AH HA moment, and yet scared to even hope for that.

I turned myself around once when I got caught and had to go to continuation school, yet that was me.  I wish parenting was easier - I feel like I have no answers...

I got my nails done and then kicked back at home watching some TV.
 

My son went to my brother's house to do yard work.  He worked pretty hard before it started raining and then my brother basically talked my son into cutting his hair - this was HUGE.  My son has very long hair and now it has been cut.  It took him 3 years to grow his hair that long - maybe this will be something that helps him get it together and remember to make better choices.

My hubby and I had dinner and talked and then went to bed. I have a couple of errands to run tomorrow AM.

Waiting....

I feel like I am just stuck waiting ... waiting to figure out the next part of our lives.  We just have to keep waiting for answers, waiting for people to get in the office, waiting for this or that.  It is scary and hard since we cannot even figure out what our lives will be in a month and we don't know the best answers or what should we do.  Do we pack up and move far away or do we stay and gamble on more than a part time job.  Do we hang on here and plan or will we end up being broke and homeless.

  This year I am starting to have to deal with some chaos.  I came back from the Priestess Retreat and found my husband is very sick and they don't know exactly what it is.  So here is where I am with my seeds of intent...   1.  Continue to work on my health - kind of have slipped but I am working on my diabetes. 2.  Start balancing my case load so it is not overwhelming - I have figured it out to be much better for me and allow me to work more while stressing less. 3.  Continue to follow the path the Goddess has put in front of me especially when it comes to being a therapist - with work I am doing a good job on this - I am taking on what is put in my path 4.  Continue to process letting go of my daughter - still trying to let go - making lots of progress. 5.  Be good to myself - trying - I am struggling a bit with depression and being overwhelmed. 6.  Focus on organizing my life so it allows me to do what I need to do to be...

Balance

I have been struggling with balancing my life.  I am one of those people who is often an all or very little person.  When I get tired or depressed or my body is hurting, I struggle to do even the basics.  The house gets messy quickly, everything gets backlogged and so forth. But then I get energy back or feel better and suddenly I have a really good day of cleaning and I am able to keep up for a few days or weeks and then I slide back.  I am trying to find the balance - today I am soar because yesterday I cleaned house for 8+ hours - so today I am taking it easier and picking up and keeping things clean but not taking on huge projects. Although I took care of 2 annoying things.   The Master Bath Toilet whistled loudly every time you flushed it so I took care of that and our alarm was telling us the keypad had low batteries so I took care of that.  Let's hope I can keep up with things for a bit.
