Finally posting

I feel like I am coming out of a slump. I am getting more comfortable, little by little. I has taken me longer than most to grow into my adult parent role. This means doing well for my family and keeping my soul. Not slacking and finding time for the things that matter. This is sort of a matter of being ready for anything. Prepared for any situation (from the suburbs to the alley, to the woods). I feel a bit of it all and don't feel totally comfortable with situations.

I am learning to keep my cool and be an active parent. I have new rules: no yelling (get closer and engage). Don't complain, just take care of it. Don't sit down much. Stay one step ahead. Jump on the grenades, especially because they are not real grenades, just things that need action.

Toby is turning three, and that means a busy week of celebration. Birthday, Tampa trip, then friend birthday party. Yeah for Toby. It should be a fun few days.

The first phase of the house project is getting close to being finished. It is super over budget and late, but I think the rooms look good. We will be happy with the final outcome, but how long and how much will this whole project take?
