there has been so much to write and I haven't written! Ignore typos since I am writing with thumbs on my phone. Anders currently has the computer. It's labor day and we were out in the sun and he took a 6 hour nap! So while everyone was headed to bed, he was waking up!
my baby is 2. Seriously?! He is so cute. He's smart and a total stinker. Last week he stepped on my dress and smiled at me as I was stuck. He loves to wrestle and fight. On Thursday, me. Malejo gave him his own cord so he could feel like he was in capoiera. It was sooo cute!
life is hard. We are barely making it financially. we are in credit card debt by nearly 3k. I also owe about 1k in dental work. Yep, awesome. Life. My dad handed me some cash last week. Just for me. He knows I rarely spend any money on mr. I appreciate it. It's hard tho, to have a way to spy down some debts... But I need clothes! Seriously. And shoes. And make up would be really nice.
I have a job interview tomorrow as a swim coach at lifetime fitness. I asked my old coach for a reference and he offered me a job as well. I would LOVE to work for him more than anything...but if offered the lifetime job, I will have to take it. Daycare...family membership... Plus $$.... We'll see. I would love to work for Brent again, but that's more of a highschool job when you don't have a family to think about.
school is going well for the kids. It's nice to have the house a little bit...though it has been tough on Tabitha but she really does love it. Brook has struggled. Svend and I and her got blessings the Sunday before school... She really struggles with clothing and behavior and we were DYING!!! it has been okay. Last week she wore the same green dress every single day. The only difference was that she wore a different shirt and shorts under. She has a boy teacher and now I think its good BC he probably doesn't notice! She has also decided to go commando from now on 😔.... What can you do?!
there have been some break ins in our neighborhood recently... Last night someone just walked thru the garage and robbed the people of everything on their counters... Laptops, etc. And they were home!!!
grandma is in a nursing home and rehab center. She has not been doing well... A little dementia and a lot of weakness. I don't know how long we have with her. Maybe this is why we're in Texas right now? I don't know.it certainly isn't for the money! Ha. Ha. I love her. I am scared for when she leaves us...but I know she has been waiting a very long time to be with grandpa!
we are all stretching a growing here. The kids feel poor all the time-the older ones. It's just so hard to not have a tablet or phone like every other kid out here. I get it. I do. It's just the same conversation every single day! I have tried harder to sympathize with them...and it helps, but not enough. I feel badly for them, but feel they should earn it or get it for Christmas. They got allowance over the summer...and spent it on random things. I can't afford allowance any more and they aren't home anyway to help out...Nd they have capoiera...which we still have to find a way to pay for! Bleck. Bleck. Praying I get this job! It would be a blessing!!!
