A couple of my FAV things....

Lately has been so crazy around here. I will give a little insight to what the past month has been like..... First off, 3 weeks ago I had a miscarriage and had to get a D&C. It was hard and frustrating but I now feel that the timing was just not right with it anyways and things will work out, they always do:) Then Broc has been going to Boise to take classes so he can become Certified in Appraising which means he can get FHA Approved which means that he can take on more work. YAY! That will be a huge blessing for us. So about 3 different weeks in a row he had to make the long drive to Boise and we are thankful for my brother and his wife for letting Broc stay there. He just finished his last course this last friday and is now done with his classes!!! Now he has to get approved by the state and take another huge test. We will be so glad to have this over with. In this Economy it is essential that he gets this done though.
So all while he has come and gone to Boise and I have been working like mad we have all pretty much been sick. I was very sick over Valentines weekend which was not so fun since we got to go to a cabin with some friends for the weekend. I'm still sick as we speak....it's lasting forever! But I think as February comes to an end, things will slow down a bit and hopefully we are all getting better. Sorry to get off track but that leads me to a couple of my Fav things....

Every heard of Zumba?? It's so fun and so addicting. This is the only pic I could find online but I have been taking a Zumba class for a few months now and I am so in love with it! It is such a good workout. I have noticed a huge difference and it puts me in such a good mood. The gym just doesn't do it for me. Too boring! I have no motivation at the gym and where i used to dance, this class is something that I can have fun with but get a great workout! I have missed dancing for so long and I love that I have found something that is close to it.


Along with being so sick I have had to try many many "drugs" to find something that made me feel a little better. For days I have had a sore throat and sleeping with it has been miserable. I don't know why it took me a few days to remember this stuff because we LOVE this stuff when we are sick. But when I remembered how great it is and took it I slept SO much better! I highly recommend this if you have a soar throat and congestion.


There you have it, now you may know why blogging has been put last on my list of things to do. Things are just crazy around here. I think they will slow down though....Well maybe not. I am really busy at the salon and the kids will never slow me down so i guess not! HA!

Amber I'm so sorry about the miscarriage. Those D&C's are terrible - let me know if there's anything I can do for you.

Jill said...

Hey Amber! So which zumba class are you taking? I have found a couple, but not sure which one. The gym is great, but I could use something more. Sorry for your loss and your sickness!

Jessica said...

Oh Amber, I am so sorry. It seems when the body is down, it become more receptical to more sickness. Sorry it is lingering.
I wish Broc the best of luck, I think that is great!

Brylee looks adorable in her costume.

So sorry about your miscarriage, but what a good perspective you have about it all being in the right timing. Better luck in the future and I'll have to try out Zumba one of these days, all I've heard is great news about it. Hope you're feeling better soon!

Amber I hope that March is a much better month for you and you can put this past month behind you! I feel bad for your loss, you're such a great mom! I hope you get feeling better soon. I've had bronchitis and it is HANGING on. I finally went back to work Monday. I've heard so much about Zumba and keep thinking I need to go. Have you tried the DVDs or just go to the class? Take care of yourself and I'm right there with you wishing for a better March, so far January and February have been lousy!

Hey Amber... i printed my blog at http://blog2print.sharedbook.com/blogworld/printmyblog/index.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=adwords&utm_campaign=feb09
The quality is good and I bought the hard bound version I think it only cost me like $40 to print. The paper back version was like $30. Hope that helps!
