Oh so much goes on behind the scenes here at Mothersense!! I have a new moniker to add to my collection “Jules the Mascara Mom.” It goes with my Younique experience and that comes into play with all of my other mothersense!! With the changing leaves of Fall so there are many things that change around our household!!
1)The Big Boy has left school and is now living with my parents across town. He has a job and is saving for a truck. He is also considering firefighter training or police academy!! He even paid his half of the cell bill this month!! WHOOP!! I am all about the baby steps!!
2) Big girl (not her birth mom, just her Jules) has moved off to her higher learning institution and is settling in well!! We hope she visits often because we sort of miss her and her spunk and green hair!
3)The other 4 rugrats have started back to their homeschool lessons. And co-op starts next week so we have to at least pretend that we have it all together! These guys are the ones that keep me on my toes! Fighting over computer time. Arguing about what all has to be written in the log book. Timing one another for their journal activities. Whew what a fun bunch! I am telling you the excitement about all of this school work is palatable. All kidding aside we have been very blessed to continue on the homeschooling journey and not have too many hiccups. The flexibility is really the best part because I can CUSTOMIZE their lessons to interest and engage them so that they want to learn!! Yay me, I call that WINNING!
4) My journey as an entrepreneur is still in full swing. I have always loved being my own boss and have made multiple attempts with Network Marketing and I really hope this time we can launch something I can have for years to come and my kids can be super dee duper proud to be associated! Younique is a company that makes amazing cosmetics. The Younique Foundation is on a mission to keep an open dialogue about sexual abuse of women and children! We gotta keep on keeping on!!
5) Hubby has seen his primary care doctor and his optometrist this week. Good news is that whatever is causing his pain and neuropathy is not affecting his eyesight. The bad news is that we still do not have answers as we are waiting on more MRIs and a consult with a neurologist. The primary care doc suspects MS and is treating for nerve pain and of course the degenerative disk disease, but we wait for now. And we pray and we do not give up hope. It is painful to watch my once vibrant husband reduced to such frailty that I have to help him off the toilet and up and out of chairs. He is only 37, it hard to watch, y’all!
