Here it is almost Wednesday & we are fully back in the grind with school & work. Schane' has had 2 bad days at school so we are obviously not off to a good start. It doesn't help when I get a sarcastic remark from an adult either that really undermines my authority. I think it's great that he is in her life but sometimes it would be easier if he wasn't so she wouldn't hear these comments that basically says I don't care what you do at school but your mom does. Yes. the story of my life continues. Battling & explaining the differences to Schane' about her mom & dad. I could really go on about this but I already feel my heart racing on the subject & I don't want to say anything that I will regret later.
We c
elebrated Christmas Sunday afternoon with her dad. It was actually really nice. I could tell that Tim really missed Schane' so it was great that they were able to spend some time together. He spoiled her like usual. I already mentioned to everybody what he was getting her so I won't get in to that either because that makes my blood boil too.

For those of you that don't know what happened Julie & Gary's house flooded the night of Jan 1st. Julia comes in & wakes me up at 1:30 saying that the house is flooding & that I n
eed to take all my stuff upstairs so it doesn't get wet. As you can imagine at that hr I am delirious & not all together hearing her. I grab a couple of things to take into the hallway, I watch my nephew Trevor carry Schane' up the stairs without waking her, & I go back in to the bedroom to grab more stuff & I walk in to a puddle of water. Ok so it's n

things that were in tubs went out in to the garage, & so forth. Happy Stickin New Year to all! And you want to the funniest & weirdest pa
rt of the whole thing? It was snowing!! Can you believe it? I kept asking God what good can come from flooding the house & snowing at the same time but I don't think we got that answer yet. We may never know what he was thinking at that moment but I know that we were all tired & in a state of shock that we were all once again piled together in the upstairs together fighting to go to sleep & listening to Trevor snore at the same time. All this time Schane' sleeps, even though she says that she didn't, & Bestema kept coming out feeling sorry for all of us & wishing she could help but couldn't so she went back to bed.

eft Arizona to be with family & I feel like I couldn't have been closer to my family than the two weeks that I spent with all of them. Despite all the ups & down, the 8" of snow, half of the family sick, etc., I loved it all & I thank my parents for sending us home. Thank you for the greatest white Christmas that I can remember!
