Sparks and Butterflies...

But aside from that, she's still completely normal

I am not a social butterfly.

When I get off work, all I want to do is go home. I don’t particularly like people. In fact, Jay ususally does all the errands – he happens to like people. But now:

  • Bible study at church on Tuesday nights starts next week.
  • Amy wants to do Weight Watchers, but won’t go alone, and will actually pay for me to go with her. Friday nights, starting in a couple of weeks.
  • Bowling League Secretary. Yeah. That was my reaction too. My mom has been in bowlings leagues for, oh, about a century or so, and is the treasurer. The secretary is leaving over a salary dispute. I may take over. It would be about an extra $800 ever 16 weeks, which I could use to put towards debt. But it happens Monday nights.
  • Did I mention I should probably see my family, clean house, dinner, and the other household administrative tasks that are mine, plus our side business?

It hasn’t even started yet, and I’m tired. Thank God for these – as long as I take them, I feel a lot better. I just have to remember to take them. Ha.

I think I may have had a breakthrough with Joseph this morning. I’m not going to get into the specifics right now, I’m too raw from it to rehash it, but suffice it to say he actually showed emotions about someone else. Real emotions, and remorse. And then proceeded to offer comfort, even though those emotions made him cry. This is such a big deal.

In other Joseph news, we’re moving on to psychological testing. Which is going to take a while – so long a while that any actions we take will probably be in the next school year, but as long there are answers, I’m okay with taking it slower with him.

i feel like a mushroom…

I haven’t been writing the last couple days. I have a feeling I’m PMSing as everything feels very much towards the surface.

We’ve been looking at jobs for Jay. We’re looking in California, Arizona, and Nevada, as those are the states that my parents’ medical insurance can travel to, should Jay’s career take us there. Honestly though, I don’t see how they can move. I mean they’ve lived in the same house for 40 years. My father’s a pack rat. All this stuff. My mother has kidney disease and life long heart disease. How could she leave all the doctors that she likes? It just doesn’t make sense. But then again, he doesn’t have a job anywhere yet. But I made him promise not to quit his current job until he finds something else.

All this junk is swimming

All this junk is swimming in my head. All of these emotions and different things pulling me in different directions. Work is terribly chaotic right now Jay’s job search Joseph’s diagnosing Logan’s heart is simply a constant worry Money is always tight, and always a worry, and we’re always being bugged about it. My in-laws and the strained relationship. My adoption related issues and search. Everything’s just pulling at me. Now, my mothing in law wants to fly down and have lunch with me and fly back. It’s nothing we’re going to solve in an hour. I mean, really? I don’t need this right now.

I don’t know why I’m writing. I have nothing in particular to say, and yet everything to say.

I was looking at my stat referals. Interesting. Just ’cause I’m bored, here’s a list of search terms that get people here:
