My life...

...has been turned upside down. We currently have 3 new children living with us.

They are a 5 year old boy, a 13 month old boy, and a 2 month old girl. Adding them to my 7 kids, makes it a zoo around here.

Very little time to post. Suffice it to say. I have discovered new levels of stress and ability to deal.

Waaaaaa!

I'm a little emmotionally overwhelmed right now and don't even have time or wherewithall to post why.

Settling in

Well, we are almost through our second week back home. We started school this week which, with all the other things and getting unpacked and organized was quite a challenge and little bit of a rough week. We have not brought everything from Balmorhea home yet. Just the most vital stuff, the stuff that would fit. David is bringing the rest home little by little with each weekend trip home.

I had gotten the school schedule and lessons all planned out and written down and ready to go. It took many hours. When we started school on Monday, I discovered that my very important-organizing-my-thoughts-notebook was left in Balmorhea; the school schedule along with it. The dilemma, redo all of the planning, while not remembering exactly what I had planned and get started on school Tuesday or delay school yet another week as we prepare to enter October already. Needless to say, this was a rough school week. I didn't want to wait.

My mother is in the hospital. Gennifer yesterday and all night with her. Gennifer is sleeping now; trying to recover. My mother should be able to come home tomorrow.
