I went to the doctor Wednesday and found out some great news. I don't have pre-ecclampsia. This is great news, although since I'm far enough along in the pregnancy, it would have been safe to deliver, but defintely great news. We've had a couple of days where I had practice contractions starting to become regular, but they stopped.

Another day without the kids, and the house is empty as ever. I slept in a great deal today, which was quite odd, but still nice. These past couple of weeks I've felt nothing but exhaustion wearing down on me, so I am trying my best to use this time to relax. Last night we went over to Matt and Lori's for prayer and fireworks. It was fun.

The past two birthdays we've had in the family, I've went to the hospital for crampy pain. I went on Mikah's birthday and yesterday on my mom's birthday. (HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!)

I've been going through my head too much lately, losing the methods of my heart. Kind of tired of doing things that way, feel kind of selfish too. I've been lazy about my journey, kind of setting it aside, until spiritual thoughts comes around that make me think twice about setting it aside.

I look at my children and it amazes me how fast time flies. It scares me, too. Questions such as, how can I not screw up? Let alone screw them up.

A lot going on in my mind. I think there may be too much in there wondering about the future. In the bible it commands not to worry about the future, but it also says basically that only fools don't plan. I plan stuff because of worry about it not getting done or accomplished if I don't plan. And a lot of the time I don't even realize I'm worried.

It's been an interesting past couple of days. I had my birthday Thursday and just relaxed as much as I could. That's all I really wanted was to have a day to chill.

I am finally home with the kids. It was a nice visit and kind of a nice vacation if it weren't for some mind struggles I've been going through. I need clarity. I need to learn how to hear God's voice as opposed to my own or the enemy. I wish it were simple, but it never seems to be that way for me.

Breathing a Little Better
How refreshing. Each week we meet up with a group of people and talk with each other, share our stories, laugh, joke, cry and whatever else may come through. The children run around and play with each other, and a little baby tends to get passed around to various people. We pray for each other, and Kiwi's Hippie Mamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08547704248257429719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5727272.post-1085238068854526992004-05-22T09:42:00.000-05:002004-05-22T10:01:08.853-05:00My Trip
Well the past week has been interesting. While I was down in Monticello, I spent some good time with my mom and also got a little break from the kids too. Came back still in a weird mood, but a little time and prayer helped. I was hoping that was the last time I had to go to Monticello for awhile, but I found out soon enough I was wrong.

Wow. I just had an amazing experience. Yesterday I was chatting with various people when this 17 year old girl came in scared and asking a bunch of questions about being pregnant. She all of a sudden was being attacked by the other ladies in the room. So I sent her a private message to console her and to try and answer her questions.

Well, here I am . I'm having lunch and finally decided to release some stuffiness from inside. I have been trying to get started in studying medical transcription from home so I can work at home.

Weird. Blogger has definitely made some changes. Still not sure if they are good or not. Today was a good day. It started with Scott making me some french toast, then soaked in the tub before church. We all took our time getting ready so there wasn't any aggravation, which I believe is a first for us.

I've been meaning to post this all week, but my head has gotten stuck elsewhere. Last Saturday we went and spent some time with Riley and Emily including some of their friends. This was the first time I met any of them, and I must say is was a great meeting. I already felt connected with Riley and Emily even though I had just met them. Very cool.

After my doc appointment yesterday, I went to pick up some breadsticks in Monticello. The girl who was working goes to the church me and Scott sort of ran away from. She she said hi, and told me she hadn't seen my mother-in-law for a couple of weeks and wanted to know if she was okay.

I find myself writing this, because I have nothing else really to do. We had a good visit with Scott's grandparents, but at the end of it I started to have some pain in my hips.

I just got back from the hospital. I went because I've been having cramping and a lot of pain, and every now and then it seemed as though I was having a contraction.

What an interesting day. Shane, my brother, comes home from work and tells me that there is a free concert up town at the Glendale Mall. Avril Lavigne was there. At first he was afraid to even ask, as though I would say no, because of pregnancy and kids. I of course said yes, and we just picked up and went. Unfortunately Scott was unable to go, because he was job Kiwi's Hippie Mamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08547704248257429719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5727272.post-10801738896260612004-03-24T19:18:00.000-05:002004-03-24T19:20:39.983-05:00Hurricane At The Miller's
Today I had to take a vacation from myself, between being hormonal and just plain mean, I had to get away from being. I'm sure I put Scott through a hurricane enough, so eventually I just stopped trying and while Scott and the kids went outside to play I went on an exploration journey. I went to explore all that was close to us like thrift stores and eclectic stores.

All I have to say is YAY FOR E-BAY! I normally wouldn't say that, but it has become a very useful and interesting tool for me lately. I have been keeping a lot of un-needed stuff from our wedding with those little petty pack-rat excuses like I'll find a use for it later.

We got a chance to finally meet Bill Bean and his wife and kids. We also got the chance of meeting Jim and Syndie and their adorable children. We ate breakfast, talked, prayed and cried. Awesome. Perfect. It was so perfect that it was imperfect. The kids played so well together, and so did the adults.

I already feel as though I belong here. I normally have a really hard time sleeping in new places, but not here. Our apartment is more than I would ever imagine, not because of all of the great 'stuff'. No, because of the lack of stuff. Everything looks so simple, and uncluttered. Well, except for our bedroom, which is still under construction at the moment.

Well, tomorrow is the first noght we will be sleeping in our new home. I'm exhausted from packing, as well as taking care of the kids, and trying to spend time with family before we go. My mother-in-law has been awesome. She has been helping out a lot this weekend. My father-in-law will be helping us out tomorrow with the move.

Rock on! We have found and decided on a place! Yay! We have a new home! Yay! We're planning on moving Monday if it all works out well. Freaking awesome. Now, time to pack and go through the nonsense clutter we have stored in our in-laws garage. The kids are excited. More Mikah than Kiara, but still the same.

Here I am again, thinking. I've come to one thing about it and that it serves me a lot of trouble most of the time. I'm stuck in a place of my walk where I don't know which way is up. When I pray, it just seems as though I'm talking to myself anymore. I try to reach out, but the apathetic side that lingers seems to take over.

Yesterday I lost most of my vision when I woke up. It was blackened, but just really blurred. It was like I stared at the sun too long and the glare left over when you look away was there clouding my vision. It came with a weird headache. Not a throbbing painful one, but just one I haven't felt before.

why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?
...why women can't put on mascara with their mouths closed?
..why you don't ever see the headline "Psychic Wins Lottery"?
...why "abbreviated" is such a long word?
...why doctors call what they do "practice"?

Today I am really off my rocker. I'm letting myself get wrapped up into things that really shouldn't take to much of my worry if at all. I have actually received a call from the church we use to attend. At first it seemed to be affectionate towards why Scott and I haven't really been attending, but then I soon realized it was only concerning my in-laws. I must say it disturbs me.

I had a lot of fun with the kids this afternoon. Well, actually that started after-after. This morning the kids were non-stop whining, and screaming at each other, and nothing was ever good enough, and my brain felt the extreme overload. So instinctively, without knowing what I was going to do next, I started to scream with them and started to clap my hands, maybe to get Kiwi's Hippie Mamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08547704248257429719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5727272.post-1077046347067469202004-02-17T14:32:00.000-05:002004-02-17T14:34:21.200-05:00Patience
I'm really hoping to go house hunting soon. Its soo difficult trying to plan stuff without having any idea of what kind of place we'll get into. Mikah want to move NOW, but I explained to him we have to wait. I've been thinking about babysitting a couple of kids while I'm at home, so I can help bring some money in.

Today I took the kids to the library for reading time, a craft, and also to play with all of the kids that go there. I've had some good conversation with one of the moms, it was nice.

Well, I believe I have made my decision on whether to homeschool Mikah dude, or to send him to Kindergarten. I've decided homeschooling, especially if we move to a bigger town where there are many events we can go to to play with other kids. I'm very excited about it too. I've borrowed a book from the library to help him with his phonics, and so far he's been doing very well.

Well, sitting in the car last night I came to realize what kind of object I would use to describe my faith. Right about now I would use the term ashes. I have been in Christ for about three years now. The first year I had no one to lead me anywhere, so no where is where I stayed.

Well, my migraine went away, I've vented to the point where it ended in success, and saw the best movie ever! Tomorrow we are planning to go to First Baptist Church, and meet with people we haven't seen in over three weeks. I'm not so sure they've noticed, but we'll find out soon enough. We need to get back into some kind of groove. We can't seem to grab ourselves into one.

Hey! We have a new blogger amongst us!!!! Scott's cousin, Asa, is up and blogging about his journey in Bogata, Columbia. He's been flowing through the winds of God and life lately. Please pray for him and everyone that he is trying to reach.
He was our best man at our wedding. My kids just love him to death, too! The call him "Uncle Asa" .

Oh, where to begin? Scott's been job hunting the past few days down in Indy, and is feeling discouraged. We have to start getting assistance from the government for food, and the wonder of how next month's bills are going to be paid is tapping on our brain. All worries and fear.

I love stirring my kids' imaginations. You can just smell the smoke from their wheels turning. Mikah just loves Christmas. All of the Christmas stories and playful songs.

I was looking in this how to yoga book my sister gave me, and I can't help but ask the question: IS THAT HUMANLY POSSIBLE?

I've been doing planning for a trip to Maryland for Christmas. My dad invited the kids and I to go there for a day or two and visit with him. In the past, I have only spent Christmas with that man twice in my whole life. This troubles me still, so I couldn't say no.

I've been having those wonderful mood swings that the tweeky hormones give you. I've never been a good person to mix with hormones. But that's okay. I can deal.

I just got done reading an old blog/comments from my friends Joshua and Kristen, and felt the need to let off some steam.
I wish some people would just realize what they are doing! Don't they see the hate and anger they cause when they do these types of things. This is what I'm talking about if you haven't been before: Protest Gay Day.

Wow. Weird. Cool. No----->FREAKING AWESOME! I was worried when I first saw the signs of pregnancy, but after I talked with someone at the medical office, I felt better.

This here is a step. A step to where........not too sure yet, but I hope its a good one. I've been feeling quite crazy lately and just stuck on dumb. I say things that sound good, but then I question if I belived the words. The more I questioned, the easier it got to just say I didn't care.

Again, here we go, but this time all I am about to say is that I'm tired. My brain is over-worked, and I feel as though I have talked too much.

I think I'm getting sick. This will totally suck due to that I get to watch the kidlings too. Hopefully its just allergies, but I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

People are starting to name their kids after consumer products. This is very worldly, and I can't say it doesn't surprise me. The possessions of this world I guess have that kind of importance.
