A week off

 Yes, I know, I took a week off. I had only just got back to blogging, but to say that my life has been crazy in the last week is an understatement: 

  • One of my neighbors was diagnosed with COVID just about a week ago, so we have been very much watching for our own symptoms and staying away from people as much as possible. She is on the mend and none of us have had symptoms
  • Fall allergy season is among us. We've seen a few of the sneezies, but other than that doing well. 
  • Work has picked up with me leading one of the largest enablement series we've ever had consisting of more than 40 sessions to schedule, facilitate, package, and communicate out to about 2 thousand employees. 
  • Because I am limiting my contact with the outside world until this Thursday, I have been doing all of my Elijah study at home during what would normally be my blogging time. 
  • Spirit week is about to start for the kiddo, so we are prepping for that. 
  • The Ford had the check engine light come on so we have an appointment for it to go have the thermostat replaced this week (thankful it was only the thermostat)
  • Tuning in to church via online is a bit harder because sometimes technology fails us, but I'm doing as well as I possibly can and can't wait to get back on campus. 
Even with all of that, I am still here and working my best to get back on track. One thing I didn't share is that I picked up my first ever quilt from the quilt shop and OMG it turned out beautiful! I can't believe that I took some strips of fabric and ended up with a beautiful keepsake to pass down to generations to come. After that, I was outside for a little bit yesterday and got overheated. My doctor in the spring said that when I have coughing fits to use my rescue inhaler. This was the first time in several months that I've had to do that, but I feel much better today after having used it. 

Let's see, what else - the bible study is really working through 1 Kings 17 where Elijah proclaims that there will be no water to the area for some years and the Lord hides him near Kerith for some time promising that Elijah would drink from the brook. God is saying he will provide. That is something we could all use as a reminder. The Lord provides all our needs. We only need to have faith in Him that he can and will follow through on his promises. 

Finally, Mack introduced me to a new a capella group called Home Free. We are truly enjoying listening to their music together. It's certainly a lot different than her Korean pop she loves so much. 

Until next time, we love you all!

Kenzie's day at school

Kenzie got off of the bus screaming, "Mom it snowed!" It was so cute. Then when I got into her backpack, I found her daily sheet with this on it... Kenzie had wrote her name (not perfect but she tried) and a note from the teacher above it saying "INDEPENDENT WRITING-- ONLY VERBAL PROMPTS!" I am so excited for her! We are definately getting somewhere. Then under the teacher comments part, I find... "SHE CAME IN TELLING ME IT WAS SNOWING-- SUPER EXCITED!" I too saw this when she got home! Construction Zone Newsletter Week 2 Dear Family, This week Kenzie will learn about solving problems. Using the topic "Build with Me," we will read stories about building things and working together to solve problems. You can help your child learn more by talking with him/her about things she/he is doing at school and the new letters and words that he/she is learning. Here are some ways that you can work with your child at home. Think and Talk: What did y...

And WINTER is here!

I look out the window to see.... A BLANKET OF SNOW! It is covering my driveway, walkway, yard.... and we are expecting more this week! I think it is safe to say that winter has finally decided to come! Don't get me wrong, snow is pretty, but I don't like it because that means I have to drive in dangerous conditions! I would much rather be driving in tropical storm force winds and rain (I have done this! When all the hurricanes were going through Florida a couple of years ago!). Now on to other things... Saturday: I had a really busy day. I was at work and didn't think it would ever end. Admissions and falls and sending people to the hospital... stabalizing others and stuff that goes on in the health care centers all the time. Sunday: Zach forgot to add me back into the schedule, so I got off at 2pm. Rode home with Maxx since he lives in Jeffersonville and Ryan and the girls were going to be at his house anyway. When we got there we watched a little of the game an...
