Closer and Closer

Today I am in the middle of a mess. The funny thing is, I don't care. I don't care if the floor hasn't been swept for a week, I don't care if the bathroom stinks. I don't care if there are dishes piled to the ceiling. I have a wonderful family. I am so blessed. I am getting closer and closer to the summer ending and I feel a little sad. I have had my children around my feet all summer and I honestly say I am going to miss that when they start school. But I am so excited for them to start school. Sarah is going to go to Taylorsville High, and Andrew is starting at Bennion Jr. I am so happy they got a special permit to go to those schools outside our boundaries. I just think you have to listen to your children. They make it what they want. I am going to be nervous when they start, but I know you can't hold your children's hands forever. They have to do things on their own.
Our Max is sick right now. I have to take him to the vet. I think he dislocated his jaw when he was chewing on a bone. He won't open his mouth to yawn. He yelps when he does. I am worried about him. He acts weird when something is wrong. I guess that is a good thing, however, I don't like it when one of my children or dog is sick. I guess it comes with the territory.
I am staying at my job and have a renewed appreciation for it. I love to do hair and make people happy. I love to be my own boss and not have to worry if something is wrong. I get along with my boss so well and I have a good job.
Tom is in therapy with his neck and back. He went to the doctors last week and doesn't need surgery. What a relief. I hope he gets feeling better with physical therapy.
I have a wonderful family and they are going to get up from their sleepover and clean up the house for me. I have to take Max to the vet. Write soon.
