Plumb – In My Arms

There are days when I wish I could just pull the covers over my head and tune them out. There are days when they bring awe and wonder into my life and I wonder how I’ve been given just a beautiful gift. There are days when nothing goes right and they seem to relish in the pleasure of making it worse. There are days when they are happy doing nothing but sitting with me and being held. Regardless of the day, regardless of the issue or triumph this is how I always feel. I love Sascha and Fumiko to death. I don’t know what I would do without either one of them. They are my life. I would be lost without them.

Your baby blues
So full of wonder
Your curly cues
Your contageous smile
And as I watch
You start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight

Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Story books full of fairy tales
Of kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You’ll someday see the truth from lies

Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always
Always love you

Clouds will rage
And storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Lunch is Served

Or is it? o.O Okay it is. Though it was simple macaroni and cheese. It was gobbled up like it was going out of style though. Now the Wiggles are on! Soon Fumiko shall go down for a nap, Sascha will play his DS downstairs and it will be quiet for about an hour. Yaaaaay. :h: I love my children, so much. But sometimes I just desperately need quiet. That doesn’t happen very often. Especially right now with how I feel I need quiet. I think the Red Beet Root Formula I’ve been taking has stopped my periods. I started it right after my period started and it suddenly ended yesterday. However I’m still having pain and cramping like I am still on it. *sigh* I don’t know. At least it’s over and hopefully doesn’t start back up. Now I can test out and review the product from Eden Fantasys! Hooray! ^.^ I’m also going to be doing a review for another company and a giveaway for a gift card. So make sure you stay tuned for that coming up.

Oh a little follow up from my review on the African Black Soap & Lotion. I’ve had very little acne breakout this go round on my period. Normally it’s MUCH worse. I’ve been pretty faithful with the soap/lotion and I really think it’s helped. I’m about to run out. They’ve lasted me quite awhile. I think I’ll be trying the Hibiscus soap/lotion this time. I’ll be sure to do a review on that one as well. :) But I highly recommend this soap and lotion. My friend Georgia purchased some recently because it was working so well for me. She found hers at Target. I purchased mine through the Shea Moisture website though. I couldn’t find it at our local Target. :(

So if Kai did it right we should be getting a substantial amount back on our taxes. Woot! It should be enough to pay our bills. Bills we’ve been trying to get paid off since well Kai lost his job at Circuit City(*hiss* :x ). So that would be a huge, huge blessing. Also we should have enough left over for me to order the products for Luna Lotus and get my lotions and such up on Etsy! Eeeee! I’m so excited! :D Here’s to hoping! I know Kai would love a new laptop, or home theater seating. But we must pay our bills first!

Hello Blessing!

Well we just had a house literally thrown into our laps. A customer of my moms who has become a friend is going to rent us her house. It’s been un-lived in for two years. My mom happened to be talking to her the other day about how we really needed something and how she’d love to have a home big enough to build a practice in as well. Well she told my mom she had a 4 bedroom 3 bath home in Oregon City that she’d be willing to rent out. Not only is she renting it to us but it’s rent to own. It’s a split level home with a two car garage and a huge back yard.

It’s an older home I believe it was built in the 70′s or 80′s. But it’s in decent condition. It’ll take some time to fix it up. It mainly just needs updating. It has old popcorn ceilings which is pretty easy to get rid of. We can’t wait. My mom saw the inside today. When her friend gets back from their vacation we’re going to help them get their stuff out. Our lease is up here on July 30th I believe. We have to hand in our 60 day notice by May 1st. So we’ll be doing that and then we’re going to go through our stuff and purge things we don’t need or use.

But yeah the house has it’s original carpet and everything which is in great condition, but it’s just ugly according to my mom. She said the carpets upstairs are a dark chocolate brown, and the carpets downstairs are a burnt orange/red. lol Lovely. My mom wants to use the downstairs to stay in off and on when she needs a break from her husband and also to start building a practice in that area. It’s about 15 minutes away from where we live now.

My moms friend from GNC is trying to get Kai in across the street, however there’s a spot open right now for an assistant manager in Lake Oswego which is right by Oregon City. It’s also a bit closer to Sascha’s school. We were also told there’s a huge park about a block away from the house. Which is super awesome. So yeah, we’re super excited. We want to start getting it fixed up. We’ll also be saving tons of money a month on rent/utilities. Woot!

I can’t believe we’ll be getting our own home in our own names. Such an amazing blessing.
