A million things to do, but I really need to blog!   Life is crazy, but when isn’t it.  

JOSH

Everything is going well with Josh.  He had his friends over for his birthday and he, Tommy and I are going on a road trip to South Dakota this weekend hopefully.    I am looking forward to some time with the boys.   Josh is busy working and getting ready for graduation.  Tomorrow he goes to college to register for classes.  He will be starting classes in September.  

ERIK

Poor guy….Dad left for work this morning for work pretty mad at Erik.   Erik lost his glasses already.  He has had them for one week and they are gone.   That is $171.00 down the tubes.   He doesn’t want to wear them now, but can’t see without them.   ARGH!!!   He is so afraid of what others will think and say.   He had In School suspension for an incident at school and two detentions.  So hubby isn’t very happy with him.   The last two nights I have come home and hubby has been upset with Erik.   I asked Erik this morning what is going on and Erik said he wants me to help with homework not Dad.  Dad is too hard on him and I am not.  Well sorry cookie, I am at work until 9;00 so you and Dad have to figure this out.  It is funny as Erik used to give me a hard time alot, but now is always very good for me and not hubby.   Hmmmm….

Erik is upset I think because Dad said he can’t go to South Dakota with me and I think that is part of the reason he is giving Dad a hard time.  But I have to agree with hubby that since Erik has shown bad behavior and isn’t doing his school work, he can’t miss school on Monday to go with me to SD.  

TOMMY

I must brag here….Tommy is now sleeping in his own bed every night!!!   Well at least he has for the last 11 days!   He come into my bed and we read and then he goes to his bed and goes to sleep.  After he sleeps in his bed for 5 days we go to the gas station and get a treat!   He usually picks out a muffin or cookie.   So that is very nice, but I am really not sleeping much better.  Oh well……

This morning I went to get Tommy dressed and he seems to have grown over night.  None of his pants fit and all of them hurt his tummy.  ARGH!!  So I found some sweats and then stopped at Target before work.  I found some pants and shirts on clearance to get us through the rest of the school year.  I bought 2 pants, 2 shorts and 3 t-shirts for Tommy and 1 T-shirt for Erik and only spent $48.00.   Between Tommy and Erik and I buying about $150.00 in clothes a month!   Every time I turn around one of them is in a new size.   ARGH!!!

HUBBY

Hubby is working alot of hours as he is down staff again.  He seems pretty stressed.   He will be home with Erik this weekend so hopefully they can do something fun together.  

ME

I am feeling a bit better.  I worked until 9:00pm last night.  I have met 5 new clients in the last 3 days and have alot of services to get set up for them.   I also have 20 budgets to write for another program.  Busy, busy…busy….I am going to try and get home at regular time tonight as I need to clean up a bit around the house and do a few things.  And I think the nights with Erik go better when I am home for some reason.   Erik is very open with me and tells me alot so I will wait and see what he says is going on with his Dad and him.  I am hoping I can encourage hubby to take Erik to a movie while I am in SD with the other boys.   But hubby ends up working alot on the weekends too. 

That is what is going on with us……I hope to get around to visit you all!   Your all wonderful and a great support to me….THANKS!
