Pure, Safe, Beneficial.......

I am going to blog about a new thing that I just started. Anybody heard of it??? Apparently it is big in California.

I love it! They have great products for everyone including men!
They have a skin care line that is very popular called NutriminC RE9. This is for women. It is the Anti-Aging line. It is the first of its kind to address the "after" effects of sun exposure and aging with a REsult-oriented system of products for face and body. It was formulated in Switzerland and made in the USA with 9 key, anti-aging elements. I have been using it and loving it. I have grown up loving to be in the sun and I have tanned at the salons so........I am in need of healthier skin.
They also have a baby care line which I have been using on Breck. She has eczema in random spots on her body and after using the baby lotion for two days, it was gone. I have been using steroid prescription cream before this and it didn't seem to help much.
Anyway, they also have protein shakes and things for weight loss, make-up, nutrition, celulite creams, and aromatherapy.
I am super excited about this so if anyone is at all interested, this is my way of talking about it without being too annoying. Haha.
Leave a comment. Go to www.arbonne.com and click on shop online to view the products.
A lot of people sign up ($29) just to have 35% off of everything for a year. It's like a CostCo membership and we all love CostCo.
Many try the products and get so excited about it and want to do the business side of Arbonne. (like me!) Network marketing is all over the place and I have been sooooo ANTI network marketing, but because of trying and loving the products I thought I would give it a go.
Feel free to comment or ask questions! If you don't want to sign up but want to buy some product, then let me know and I will get it for you with the 35% off. Anyone who tries it will love it!
Ok. Have a great day!

I GOT STONED LAST WEEK.

OK. I'll bet I got your attention with my title! Haha. I did though. I had a kidney stone!
I hate them!!! I had a couple when I was pregnant with Gavin 5 years ago. I passed them. Then, never have I had another problem until about 5 months ago. I have been having a reoccurance for the past few months. When it happens I just took a pain pill that I had left over from when I had Breck. By the time it wore off, the pain would be gone and I would forget about it. Well, last Tuesday was different. The pain med. didn't work at all. The pain kept getting worse fast and I ended up throwing up because of it. Jake came home early from work to help me. By this time, it was so bad so we went to the ER. I walked in and told the Secretary what was going on and then sat down. Within 5 minutes I was throwing up AGAIN. This was good though because they bumped me up to "next with the doctor" because I threw up. Anyway, a bunch of non-productive morphine, meds for nausea, and more medicine that did work, I was comfortable again. They did a CT and found a 4 1/2 millimeter stone in there. They said that it was big but not big enough to surgically remove. They gave me pain killers and said to go home and pee in a strainer. After a few more days of mild pain, Saturday was the day I passed the stone. Hooray! If anyone has had a kidney stone they know the pain. Not fun at all! The stone has been analyzed and it is Calcium Phosphate. I will be seeing a specialist in May. I don't want anymore stones!
I feel better this week. Wow, it is not possible for a mom to get sick or hurt or whatever. There is too much to do. Ha.
I guess I will go drink a big glass of water now. (H2O is good prevention)

Master Bedroom

Now that we own our place we can do whatever we want with it. Hooray!
I wanted to change our master bedroom colors from yucky faded denim comforter to yummy colors. So, I chose chocolate brown and light blue. We are going to paint an accent wall behind our bed light blue too. We are in the process of getting a ceiling fan but the one we loved hangs too low from our 8 foot ceilings. Bummer! We don't really like any others so it might be a while.
Well, winter hit hard last night. Gavin asked, "How come winter takes so long?" Haha. I agree!
I just joined a gym last night. I am anxious to go and get into better shape. I tried on a bridesmaid dress last night for the first time and I couldn't zip it up all of the way. (I can't believe I just admitted that!) I am a nursing mother and that doesn't help either.
Anyway, I want my husband back! He has been working a ton of overtime the past few weeks and we have had it. Is it time for a new job? Who knows???
I'm dying to leave Utah for a while. Anyone else?
I'm going to go watch American Idol because I taped it. By the way, did anyone notice the Jamiroquai song that was sung on the guys night? He sang it alright but chose a great song!
