4 shifts left....SO tired

We have a pretty big dirt track in our area. I work it often on the ambulance. Last night, I was informed that Casey Kane wanted to buy it. I didn't realize it was such a huge deal. I guess he even races there sometimes. It's one of the 3 biggest in the country. Hmmm....who knew? They are doing a kids night coming up, and I think I'm going to take Wyatt. He will LOVE it. That kid will be in heaven. But, anyway, I worked last night, and I go back in tonight. After that...only 3 more shifts. I'm so relieved. But, kinda sad, too. I feel like a lot of my identity is being an EMT. However, I feel like I miss out on SO MUCH because I work shift work. Yes, it has it's good points, but then there are days like today. I was so tired that I made the choice to miss church. I hate that, but last time I felt like this and worked, I fell asleep during the sermon. And, since I have to work tonight, then get up at 4 am, I needed to get my sleep when I could.

I finally got rid of the ringworm in the kittens....only to discover that Wyatt has it too. *sigh* At least I already have the meds on hand. I really didn't think that's what it was because it didn't itch. But, alas, that's what it is. So we all have to be a little more careful than usual about washing our hands. He can still play with his friends and go to camp, but....it's just another thing

So, after hearing many many opinions, which I weighed carefully, I made the decision to homeschool Wyatt. It's so hard because Randy doesn't tell me what he thinks. He never does, because he's afraid it's going to be different than what I want. But, I digress.... He is on the waiting list for the private school, so I'm going to look at this as time given to me to get our feet wet, and really see if homeschool will work for us. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. But it also gives me time to look into co-ops and homeschool groups in the area. Hopefully I find something. And, if for whatever reason it doens't work, I will wait until Wyatt gets a spot in the private school. I really think God will lead me to the right decision for our family.
