Last night was D's first Pack Meeting in Cub Scouts. He was very excited to get his first little patch-- the Bobcat Patch! It is times like these that I am so glad I'm a Mom. He is little face just lit up when they called him up to the front to receive his award... very cute! :)
Lately, I have been so overwhelmed with life, that I can't seem to enjoy it anymore... I have started a new job with the intention of learning new things and being closer to my house, but I have found myself overwhelmed by the "learning curve" and disheartened by it. My thinking just doesn't fit in there. Not at all. And I cannot seem to convince myself to think the way they think... I feel like I am in a strange purgatory.... It is kind of hard to explain. I feel like I am just waiting for something... but I don't know what. It is very confusing and it all just seems to suck my energy. I go home and am mentally exhausted. The cases there are never "happy". Mostly old, geriatric pets that are just trying to hang onto life... Or sick and dying pets, that have exhausted all Western measures of medicine. Very depressing. Very few puppies or kittens... I'm not sure I can handle it. I have to be honest. I just don't feel satisfied or happy for that matter. I have got to pull myself out of it though and keep plugging away, I suppose.
Okay, enough of this rambling... Below are some photos of my boy getting his patch! At the end of the post is one of Big A's drawings-- she copied it from a book she was reading--- it is free hand (not traced!), and one of D's sword fight drawings---- his specialties are sword fights, pirate wars, and dragons... Now that makes me smile!
