A story I needed to hear

There is a wonderful Buddhist story about a woman whose son gets sick and dies. She goes to the Buddha to ask him to bring her son back to life; I will, he says, if you bring me some mustard seed from the home of a family that has not known loss. She goes from house to house but can find no family that has not lost someone dear to them. She buries her son and goes to the Buddha and says: I understand now.

Sick... And more sick...

I have been sick non stop since January. The stress. The everything going on. 

Today I'm just done. I'm on my 4th or 5th antibiotic in 3 months. 

Double ear/throat/chest infection. I'm just done. Sleeping and feeling yucky for 3 days on antibiotics. The doctor can't tell me what's wrong. She is as clueless as I am why I'm so sick. 

I just feel like giving up. 

Big move

Well things have been crazy the last few months. Having a mommy stalker who verbally attacked me at my kids school. Then dealing with my dad in the hospital. 

We had the twins birthday party and it was amazing! The kids had fun! Was just the right amount of kids! 

Now I'm in the process if moving my dad's things. It's hard going through my moms things knowing she will never use it. We are moving things that are important, then I'm going to get junk removal in to clear everything else out. Then someone to clean the place. 

I'm just exhausted. It's hard. 

I just feel like falling apart. The only good thing is that kids are excited about the move. There own rooms. Then getting bikes for there birthday. 

I'm just hoping things go well for them at the new school and we can make some new friends over summer. 

Not cool

So my special stress deodorant exploded on first use. While clicking it up... 

Not cool 

What do you expect in return?

Do you expect anything in return? 

Do it for a smile. For others. Do it because it shows love.

New normal

The kids are regestared for a new school in September. I found a place for the kids and my father and myself. Great price. Near the kids other grandparents. It's going to be fantastic. 

I'm moving with little sister before B and H and they will follow me at the end of June. 

Very excited for this new chapter! 

The best part is the new school is more worried about H and her learning/anxiety issues then B being trans! 

Now if only I can get B's best friends family to move out this way! 

Maybe I need to just steal Ms A and have her move in! 

It also helps that the sun is shining! 

Mommy bullies

Mommy bullies are gaining momentum. 

I have had to deal with police last week after a week of harassment. 

Last night I had to delete my twitter after someone went over 6 months back in my twitter account to post on Facebook. 

Then in the middle of trying to respond to a friend on FB my account got shut down. They say I'm not me? So off I send my passport in a picture. A day or two and it should be back. 

But this is the start of week 2. 

Can these mothers just go read a book with there kids? After all it's spring break.
