Early Springbreak

It's in the middle 70s here today so we took our Spring Break 1 day earlier than we planned. I needed a mental break too. JP found out last night that he has to work 10 hours of overtime between now and Saturday. Daniel's Dr. appointment is in the morning which we will run to after only 5 hours of sleep. I had to run out to the store this morning to get some things just to get us through until we can get back to the store. I have not bought one thing for the kids Easter baskets ( to be honest I do not even know where their baskets or plastic eggs are). I have a dr.'s appointment Monday afternoon. So last night when JP told me about overtime, I just laid in bed and cried. I forgot to get the rent check in the mail today. My brain is going into total shutdown.
We have come to a conclusion about our dog Buddy. He is such a sweet dog but we have not gotten anywhere with him being scared of everything. He pees on the floor everytime we touch a flashlight. We contacted the organization we got him from and JP said he just couldn't take care of Buddy any more. JP has to carry him outside everytime he has to go to the bathroom and Buddy hides in our bathroom when he is inside. So we have done everything we could do for him. The lady who is going to foster him is experienced with dogs like Buddy and really feels she can help him. I am sad because Buddy is so sweet but the fact is if JP ever got sick or hurt, I can't carry the dog so there would be nothing we could do. Tera was a little sad but she is very sensitive to situations like that. Buddy never played with the kids and since he hides in the bathroom they really don't have much contact. We are also looking into the possibility of moving in the near future to a place of our own. Be praying God will lead us to where He wants us.
With all these things going on, my sanity is dictated an early Spring Break. WOO HOO!
