 The best thing ever happened this past month: Ken is now only working one job!!!! I am so happy and relived. We only have enough money saved up to do this for a few months though. ( I hate having to make everything about money) One of us is going to have to get a job. We are going to enjoy some time together as a FAMILY and I hoping that Ken and I finally get some time for just us. These last 2.5 years have been so hard and I miss having fun together. I missed just hanging out with him and I think Kaylee has as well. She keeps asking him if he is going into work every afternoon. I am just happy that he will be home more to help with the kids. Having home for only a few hours mid-day was not much help for me to get a break. I love my kids but I just want a little time apart from them! WE ALL NEED THAT.

I am working on having a big yard sell at grandmas house to help us with rent and bills for May and June. I am going to have to ask for help because Ken can't take anytime off from Costco but I am not suppose to lift anything. I am just not sure who to ask! I feel like I have asked the same people all the time and I don't want to burn them out. Anyways we are playing on getting rid of a lot of stuff that we do not need. We have so much stuff and I want to de-cluttered everything. It will be hard for Ken but once we get going it should be okay.

We are in the process of changing health insurance and it is a pain. I have never had anything but Kaiser and I am really scared/nervous about the whole thing. The kids are staying on Medi-cal/Kaiser as long as they qualify. So with all of Michael's therapies and health issues that is a good thing. As for me I am in the process of finding a few doctors and it is hard for me. I hate it because I feel like they all ask so many questions even if you give them your medical records. So far I think I found one doctor I like so hopefully it will all fall into place. I have until May 1st to get everything organized and we no longer have Kaiser. I also just started a new medication about 5 days ago and I think it is helping me with a few of my symptoms but I am not a fan of the side-affects as of right now but my doctor said the longer I take it they will subside. I seem to have a lot more energy and my pain is pretty much gone during the day if I keep myself busy. I keep praying that this will all be under control when I change doctors and hospitals. I am tired of stressing about all of this.

Kaylee also got a scholarship for summer school! I am so happy about this. We only signed her up for 5 weeks but still now she has stuff to do for the summer and to get her ready for kindergarten. She loves school and would go crazy home with me all day since we can not go anywhere because of Michael's therapy.

We have made some reservations to go camping a few times over the summer. I am not sure how Michael is going to do but we will see. I am happy that we have a few things to look forward to in this summer.
