CRAZY :)

Well so much for the chance at the summer that never was....WEATHER SUCKS!  Its October and for the 1st time (that I can remember) it snowed in October....YUCK!  The weather has just been plain crappy, this morning it is rainning and freezing, the kind of day where nothing gets done, you lay on the couch and watch movies and the house seems to just fall apart around you. 

Well life has been a little nuts to say the least.....School is back in full swing.  The kids are all adjusting and I'm only now finding my footing.  I am taking six classes and in hind site, I thought it wouldnt be a problem.  The classes that I chose are pushing me to my limits.  I have to keep reminding myself why I'm doing this, and in the end how worth it, it will be. 

Jake is struggling a little bit this year, he has had trouble with reading and remembering since he started school and we are starting to see a little clearer and have an idea what might be going on.  Together with his teachers we are thinking dyslexia.  We are going to have some testing done and hope that we get some kind of answer soon.  He has lost out on some very presious time and we now need to play catch up. 

Aedan LOVES school, this I didnt expect.  He is at the same school as the other kids and has just surprised all of us with how well he is doing!

Maddi is such a good kid at a bad age.  She really reconginizes the nuttiness of other kids her age and can see (for now) how wacky kids can be.

Julie, is Julie~ still my free spirit.  Laid back and loves life.  She has not had any side effects from her Lymes Disease and I cannot even exlpain how happy that makes me.  She will have it forever, but should not have any symptoms unless she becomes re-infected (which because of where we live, is possible)

Kevin is still working his tail off, but enjoys it.  His boss is out on maturnity leave and he now has the responsiblilty of 2 people, he is doing fine.

So thats the update for now.  I really need to get better at this whole blogging thing.  If I had the time/energy and posted half the crap that happened from day to day, it most likely would be a hit, but I'll take it as my venting space for now.
