Stress & Worry List

  • I have a fear of spending money lately. I have visions of how I'd like to spend it, but always decided against it and keep it safe in savings. But there's some spending in our future and I'm scared.
  • Betsy (my 1999 ford escort) died today on Aaron's way home from work... Betsy is an amazing car, we're just to a point where it maybe time to think about not repairing the car with 189,000 miles on her and get a new one. SCARED!!! Pull through for less than $500 Betsy... I love you.
  • Public vs. Private in our current economic state. I'm afraid that if I send Porter to public school for kinder he'll end up in an isolated special ed classroom. So I emailed several private schools today just so we can explore our options. The tuition would be a sacrifice for this family, but a sacrifice worth making if we feel right about it.
  • The return on some undiagnosed health problems in my life.
  • Therapy... I read all these things that make me feel like my child HAS to have this therapy or he'll never speak clearly, or this, or this. This leads to mommy pressure and guilt.
  • Porter's eye has started turning with his glasses on. I don't know what this means, expect for sure new lenses. I'm hoping his vision has improved instead of worsened.
  • The neighbors seeing me in my pajamas and messy hair at 6:30 p.m.
There maybe I can let it all go now and trust God with it. Happy as can be, these have just been nagging at me.

I'm hopeful that updates on the kids will get posted tonight, much more fun to read. :)

Don't sell the old broad short, Betsy actually has 194,000 miles. Looks like it was just a dead battery so she lives on another day! She's gotta at least make it to 200k!
