Facebook strikes again!
Well, it’s been over a month... I think I’ve been more faithful to post statuses on Facebook instead of sitting down to write more here. Anyway, another month has gone by realatively fast. The kids have been taken to a movie by Stephanie and Henry one weekend and bowling, park, and pizza by Jennifer another this month. We went to Fargo to celebrate Alexis’ birthday at Skyzone as well.
And now Halloween is almost here. The kids are so excited for our church party. The theme is Under the Sea. We’ll have Ellie as Ariel and Annika as a sister mermaid. Sofia was finally convinced to be a crab. Holden will be Flounder, Christian Eric, and I will go as Ursula. Ellie and Annika both have real costumes, the rest of us will just throw some stuff together to be “good enough.” 😜 I also get to help in Sofia’s classroom. I’m wondering what Holden will think of all the fun?!
In other exciting news, we got our forever table delivered today. This maple beauty is easily the nicest thing in our home. I cannot wait to have many meals and family time at it. The first meal was beef stew. The snow on the ground made it seem appropriate.. Speaking of snow, we got stuck. I posted that on Facebook already, but may as well make record of it here too. Thank goodness for my father-in-law.
Next up, 5 kids dental appointments split up into 3 visits. I had mine and again, 37 years- no cavities. Why didn’t the kids get my dental health?! Uff- I’m not looking forward to it.
Just a little over 2 months left! Woohoo! I hesitate to say that things seem to be going well. The last time I did that, I was hit by an extreme anxiety attack. Just BAM- right out of nowhere I could barely handle life. That’s when I needed to text my friend. We had also had that discussion shortly before- She was able to respond appropriately and text STOP, BREATHE and other encouraging messages. So, if anyone reading this ever has to go through a deployment, make sure you have that discussion with a close friend on what to do to help if you’re prone to anxiety and/or depression!
