We survived another year
Wow! i had completely forgotten about this blog. Life has been that crazy busy. Well I made it through the rest of last years program and as miracle would have it, this years too.
Wyatt's surgery went well, and he's thriving so well he is no longer using his feeding tube. He is seeing a few therapist, which are helping TONS, but keeping me busy as ever. Oh ya, don't forget the now possibility of autism. Nothing major, a minor autism. Most likely Asperger's or something in that range. Just one more set of testing to juggle no biggie. BUT if it turnes out true, it would help a ton. We would know now to help him better.
Issy is growing fast as ever. She spent all last winter/spring and half of the summer in swimming. She has passed all the swimming courses the YMCA has. She is now is SOS (strengthen our swimmers). She's LOVING it, it is her dream to join swim team when she's able to. She also has started playing the violin, and K-Kids (kiwana for kids). Busy, busy, busy child. She does all this and is able to keep her grades are top of her class and above "the average scores for the school district AND state". SO proud of this one.
KK, she is my respite. She isn't doing any extra stuff at the moment, but begging to join girl scouts. I want to let her, but the question is do i have any time left in our schedule to accommodate it? Her grades are doing good, one of the top in her class, but her behavior/attitude that's another story. She gets bored easy, so she goofs off and drags other into it with her. I've tried talking to them about enrichment classes because she's bored because she isn't challenged. They said she has to improve her attitude/behavior before they will consider it. So the vicious circle continues.
Myself I have started couponing. It is so nice to be at the end of the month and not have to eat peanut butter sandwiches cause the cupboards are bare and foodstamps don't renew for 2 more days. I actually get name brand shampoo and laundry detergent and toilet paper. Do you know how awesome that is? its heaven! BUT be warned DO NOT get in line behind me. check out usually takes me 45-60 min. Yes thats right, an hour just to check out. Every Saturday i spend an average of 4-5 hrs shopping. BUT i save an average of 75-85% off regular price. Occasionally i even save 100%. Yup nothing better than getting done to hear "your balance is... oh wait you don't have a balance. AWESOME" especially when it started at $100.00. I am still crocheting. I even mastered knitting. My darling daughters bought me needles and how to books for Christmas last year so I said what the heck! But crocheting is still my passion. WOW this has gotten long and I can't think of much else to say for now, there for I will leave it here for now.
Live and let Live, Love and let your self be loved in return. :D
