house project & other things

Well... it has been over 2 weeks since I last blogged! YIKES... Please bare with the long entry.

Nothing eventful has really happened over the past 2 weeks. I have not been going to school and only work 2 or 3 evening per week. I have been trying to clean my house, which I don't necessarily feel motivated to do most days... so I just putts around doing laundry and washing dishes.

We have been making progress on our home! This summer project is replacing all our windows and residing. We currently have 10 windows in our tiny home. One was replaced in October after a golfball went through it in August. We order 7 new windows - 2 of them are going to make more space for future cabinets in the kitchen an a coat rack in the entry way. 3 down; 4 to go!! And 2 sides of our house are torn down to the tar paper, leaving a LARGE pile of cedar shake siding piled on a tarp in the corner of our yard until we get a dumpster. So excited to get this all done!

We have lots of remodeling plans with our home and it is quite the adventure. I try to be patient through the whole thing, but it is not something I can do on my own! The flooring is missing in some places, we do not have dry wall up in many spots, my kitchen is a horrible use of space, and my oven only works half the time. This is frustrating to me, especially the kitchen because I LOVE to cook... so thankful to be getting a NEW kitchen next spring!

I have also become a Shaklee distributor. My mom thinks I'm trying to see how many companies I can become a distributor for... Mary Kay, Herbalife, Shaklee... I know, I know, its a little extensive. Mary Kay is something I am still trying to work at after over a year, but am just not very successful with. Herbalife I am only a distributor so I can get the 35% discount to buy my products. And this new Shaklee thing...I am VERY excited about! I started using the cleaning supplies last month to support a friend who has recently become a distributor. If you spend $30 you can become a member for FREE...so I did. Now I absolutely LOVE the cleaning supplies and was able to become a distributor with out paying a fee. How wonderful! I am excited to see where this goes. I am passionate about making my home a healthier and safer place for my family and I want to share it with others!!! Praying for the business to grow and help support our family that will be expanding someday in the future while being a stay-at-home mom.

Friday!

It is FINALLY here... This has been such a long and stressful week of VERY little sleep for me.  First week of clinical in long term care, an endocrine exam on diabetes melitus, a 3 pages paper to finish up, fixing my errors on my prep from this week...and today starting my prep for next week! It is a never ending cycle!! But it is now April and that means only 6 more weeks of school then its SUMMER!!

This afternoon I will be spending time at the nursing home making my assignments since I am team leader this week. Then off to a long shift at work.

Thankfully I have the weekend off :) Spending some much needed time with my hubby is on the agenda as well as cleaning my house! Saturday evening we are going to our friends' house (Seth & Renee) for dinner and hang out time! Sunday is church and then time with my in-laws; my sister-in-law will be in town too!! So, it will be a pretty laid back weekend, hopefully a bit less stressful. 

I have decided what April's give away is...

(Satin Hands in Vanilla Sugar!)

Also, 15% off all month. Stock up on anything you might be needing, or get a new "look" for Spring and Summer.

Help support me and my husband as we are remodeling our house...I hope to make some extra money so we can do more with our house this summer. I am also wanting to take up one of my passions as a part time business from home, but right now finances and resources are the major problem! Praying for guidance

busy, busy, busy

This week has been VERY busy for me with school. So I have not had a chance to blog. And tonight I have to study... so this will be a short one.

I spent the weekend with my brother-in-law, sister-in-law, niece, and nephew since they were here from MD for a wedding. I miss this already and hope they can move back to MN soon :)

School has been crazy and stressful so far this semester. I am hoping to do better on my tests and bring my grade up because right now it is just discouraging. I could use some prayer and encouragement in this area if you think of it :)

I got the last 2 books in the mail from the series by Karen Kingsbury that I am reading. So excited to finish them!!

I also ordered more MK stuff that just came out this season. I am excited about the new products, and building my business. If you want to hear more about the opportunity or are interested in supporting me and pampering yourself - email me! 

Well, on a note of getting things in the mail... Today I got my copy of "It Started With a Blog" by Steph Page. I would recommend checking out her blog. She is a new blog friend of mine and the sister-in-law of a dear friend from the Honor Academy. She is so encouraging and I cannot wait to meet her in person!!

(click here to check out her blog & devotional)

Well, I'm gonna hit the books till my wonderful, handsome hubby gets home from work.
