Its become a place to write about it all, my day, the fun, kids, work,home school adventures, journaling, thoughts and feelings, the good the bad oh and hey maybe the ugly!
naaaa I see no ugly, so its the good the bad and the beautifuuuul! Trying to keep track of it all, a reminder to us of all that we have on the days we are down, a hello to family and friends that live far away.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09147295989188297298noreply@blogger.comBlogger191125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4439222628375852780.post-22016916052468787142023-03-29T13:29:00.000-05:002023-03-29T13:31:04.382-05:00October 2016, Halloween & an update<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

Its been far to long since I posted an update. We are doing good. We started school in September as usual. We had to skip the fair this year but that's OK. We got a good start and have had a good year so far. We found an awesome math program the kids love! Loo is using the one she finished last year with. She will switch in January possibly. As always we are ec lec tic, and use a few resources for school. Again we have hit a comfortable spot that's working well for us. We moved again. We are currently renting a very small house until we figure out what's next. We are within walking distance of a Water Park! Great in summer! A few parks, Museums, and lots of other things to do. We have been taking kids to the park and they play HORSE, Sebastian is pretty good! He can shoot up close, close enough to be hard for most people and he gets it in almost every time. We have done some Geo Caching and had fun. Sir N and Loo are taking photography courses so that means more excuses to get outside for pictures! SirS will be taking a course that combines Engineering, Mechanics and Robotics type things in one. He will learn to build things, make them go, about engines, how to take things apart and put them together as something else. He loves to build things and robots so when I came across it I knew it was perfect. Baby E, now will be called Miss E because she's no longer a baby and does not want to be called a baby. So She is doing lots of cooking and baking. She loves to Cook and is good at at. All the kids will be setting up blogs for school. Unsure if they will be shared or not. If they are I will let you know. </div>

This is Loo's last year of High School! Hard to believe she is graduating already. She's an amazing person. They all are. They are growing up so fast. </div>

There has been far to much happen in life to catch up. Larry just had unexpected surgery to remove his gallbladder. 2 weeks off work is rough but he feels better. He had been having some back pain that went away with surgery. </div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
The following year we did the same thing…only we extended it to a “Tea Tasting” party and we dyed YARN instead of eggs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Dear Teachers,</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Every spring this is my favorite class activity! I wanted to share it with you because “my kids” enjoy it so much…</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
When I was a child I used to think bunnies and flowers and eggs were all about Easter. Then I moved to the Middle East. In Egypt, every year, Christians and Muslims celebrate spring together using the themes of flowers, bunnies and eggs! In Iran, the New Year falls on the first day of spring every year and is a national holiday. They celebrate by creating nature tables of springtime items such as wheat grassgrown in little pots, goldfish swimming in small bowls, shiny coins, colored eggs and flowers. Two years ago I visited Iran during No-Ruz (the new year) and was amazed at the variety of nature tables I saw at all the hotels, restaurants and homes! Now, when I plan my April crafts I don’t limit the bunnies, flowers and eggs to Easter Sunday but I celebrate all month with these spring crafts – you might even find me dyeing eggs in May! One of my favorite crafts is called<span style="font-weight: 700;"> “The Spring Tea Party”</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
The general idea of the craft is that the children all get to make their<br>own herbal tea and THEN dye some eggs with that same tea! You can make<br>this a little silly if you want by making invitations for the eggs and<br>inviting them to the tea party. Or you can make this event completely<br>sacred and solemn. It is your choice what to do with the event. However,<br>here is the basic formula:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-weight: 700;">Spring Tea Party</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Supplies Needed:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Rosehips tea (Pink Dye)<br>Blackberry tea (Purple Dye)<br>Cinnamon Tea (Orange/Brownish Dye)<br>Chamomile Tea (Green Dye)<br>Lavender Flower Tea (Blue Dye)<br>Turmeric Spice Tea (Yellow Dye)</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
SEE-THROUGH Tea Pots or Glass Jars or French Coffee Press</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Boiled Eggs</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Tea Strainer</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
INSTRUCTIONS:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
1. Boil a pot of water</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
2. You will need a spoon of herb for each cup of water you put in the<br>pots, jars or coffee press so calculate how many spoons of herbs you<br>will be putting into the pots and divide this by the children you are<br>working with so each child can spoon the same amount of herbs into the<br>pots.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
3. Teacher or parent should then pour the boiling water over the herbs<br>and let steep for ten minutes.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
4. At this point the children can pour some tea to drink. Use small cups<br>so that they may “taste” a little of each one. Have sugar, honey and<br>milk available for them to add to the tea if they like. Depending on<br>which container you use you may need to strain the tea through a<br>strainer to pour it out and the children may need some help. But<br>don’t strain the tea and THEN serve it because we are going to leave<br>the herbs in the “pot” for the dying later!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
5. After the tea-tasting party is over you can add boiling water to the<br>herbs in the pots again if there is not enough water left in them. The<br>pots should be at least ? full. You can also add more herbs for a<br>deeper dye.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
6. Have the children drop the eggs into the tea pots – one at a time.<br>This usually results in giggles. Leave the eggs over-night. In the<br>morning you will have colored eggs! You do not need to use vinegar.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
7. The next morning show the kids what happens when the eggs “drink the<br>tea” too!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.304px; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
Enjoy!</div>

I know I have not been doing a good job of blogging and letting everyone know what we are up to and how lifes going. It has been over a year since my last post! There are several drafts started but not completed sitting there under drafts. Maybe I will put them all together in 1 post and then you can see bits n pieces. Any way I am very sorry I haven't kept up, theres many reasons I have not kept up and most are to boring to share! So I am going to start with a little of life and whats kept me busy, then I have a big question for people, and then I may attempt to fillin some of the missing fun we have had. <br>
So most people know I have Fibro, Sciatica and a sleep disorder. You may even know Iam in pain a lot, that I use a walker or wheelchair for most things that take me away from home. If someone is finding out these thins right now by reading this, Sorry. I didnt leave anyone out intentionally. I have mentioned my health here and on Facebook once in a while. I have not gone into detail for many reasons, mainly Im not comfortable putting it all out for anyone to see, and I try not to complain. I have talked about pain and other things before but I try hard to avoid posting daily, weekly or monthly updates on me and my health, or how much pain Iam in, or what its done to life.I dont want to come across as a complainer, wanting people to feel sorry for me. I do NOT want others to feel sorry for me so DONT start now. I also dont want to bore people who do not really care about my medical issues. I also do not like to think about it all myself, its a downer. If Iam writing it out Iam thinking it over. So for many many reasons very few people actually know all the facts and details. I did not do this to leave anyone out, it just happened. I have had it brought to my attention that many people that do not know everything do not understand why I do not do many of the things I used to do, and why I dont work, fieldtrips, outings and have people over more, and a few other things. When Larry or I have tried to explain it does not go well. Unless your here seeing it, daily, weekly and knowing everything it would be hard to understand. But it has created a few issues. So in an attempt to let people know more about whats going on, and keep people up to date on our life I found myself wondering how do I do this, how to include more people in our life, letting them know whats going on without making tons of phone calls or putting it all on FB or here or else where. NONE of those options are good. I do not want some things out there for the world, I dont want people who dont care to be bogged down with info about me, or to come across as a big self absorbed baby. Unfortunatley this leaves people who do care, who want to know left out. I dont want that either. I realize I have done just that without meaning to. So here's my solution If you want to know whats going on with my life and medical issues I need you to let me know. You can do this by email, respond here, Facebook, or instant messanger. I also need to know if you want to be kept up to date as things change and Doctors do their thing. Iam going to put together a list of those wanting to know. I will email those people letting them know whats up and whats going on when theres changes. I can not call everyone and go over it all that way. Its time consuming and I have to much to keep up with here between kids, house, homeschool, my stuff, Husband stuff and whatever else calling is not an option. It isnt to be mean or because I dont want to talk to you on the phone. So let me know if you want to know whats up and be kept updated. Iam not going to be spending daily, weekly or even monthly updates. I will only update when things change, or something new comes up. My email is renaissancenh@gmail.com<br>
For now Iam going to share a short version of it all. I have Fibro, most know that. I also have a long list of other stuff, if your unsure what something in the list is feel free to ask, I dont mind explaining. So here goes:<br>
Fibro<br>
Sciatica on both sides causing extreme pain and numbness from my lower back to my toes at same time. Odd I know. <br>
Bursitis on both hips, hurts terribly<br>
I have Nerve damage and pain from about the middle of my back down. We are still unsure of cause.<br>
I am in pain 24/7. It never goes away, the only thing that changes is the severity. Some days Iam good, it is tolerable for some part of the day. Other days moving and holding still are both horrible. I can wake up ok and an hour later not be ok. I can be good half the day and not the other half. Unfortunately when I have a good day I tend to over do it and then I suffer more. Overdoing it is something I'm good at and always regret.<br>
Ok on with the list<br>
MCS also knows as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity. Not a very well known syndrome. If you have an opinion thats somewhere along "it doesn't exist or its make believe" keep the opinion to yourself, I do not want to hear it. I am the one reacting to many chemicals, I Am not arguing over it with anyone.<br>
I also have Narcolepsy a sleep disorder. It causes me to fall asleep doing normal everyday things like cooking, talking, showering, walking, driving, just to name a few. So between the Narcolepsy and chronic pain that always gets worse when in a vehicle I do not drive much anymore. I cant, its not safe for me, anyone else in the van or others in other vehicles or walking. Iam ok for 15 to 30 minutes depending on the day.<br>
About 5 months ago I woke up and my right shoulder hurt. Over about 1 week it spread to my fingertips. It would come and go. Over the course of another couple weeks it spread to my left shoulder and down to finger tips. Coming and going. You know how your arm feels when it falls asleep? Well my arms feel similar to that, only worse. Its like having an electrical shock run down your arm and never go away.My hands swell horrid. When it started the pain and numb feeling would come and go. Now its here and staying. Docs are unsure. It seems to be Nerve pain but we are unsure of the cause. I also have a spot on my upper back that hurts terribly and the pain runs from my spine down both arms. The pain is the least of my concerns with my arms. I Am rapidly losing the use of my arms. I have very little muscle control, strength or grasp in my hands. I drop things daily. Using them only makes them hurt horrible. They get cold easily, were talking cold, If you touch them they feel cold. Its not fun. I am unable to do much writing. Thanksgiving dinner this year was made by my family, I supervised(watched while they did the work pretending they needed my input to do it)<br>
We recently say the Doc over this. He ordered 2 MRI's. I rescheduled them until February. They cost to much, even with our lousy insurance. He also referred me to a Neurologist. <br>
He also says to start planning for when it gets worse. Make arrangements to have help at home for me, kids, house basically everything I can't do. Which is turning into much more that I like and much faster than I want. So we have been moving furniture, books, homeschool stuff, my stuff all around in hopes of making things easier for me and everyone else. We are also changing the way much of the kids schooling is done so that they are more responsible for their education. Also changing things and making sure Larry knows what we are working on. We have also come up with a way for me to let everyone know what kind of day I'm having and the daily routine will be based on that.<br>
We saw the Neurologist about 1 week ago. Henwas nice, thorough, listened to Larry and I, answered our questions and ordered more tests. In Feb. I will have 2 tests done on my nerves. A nerve conduction tests and I'm not sure the others name. It will tell him more about possible damage,,where damage may be, how severe it is and I'm unsure on anything else. Those tests will be done 1 week after MRIs on neck and upper spine. When he has results for all that I will more than likely have an MRI on my brain. So we should know more in February.<br>
Like I said before if you want me to keep you updated let me know here, on FB, or email renaissancenh@gmail.com I will need your email also. If I don't hear from you you won't get notified of anything so if you want to know let me know.<br>

It has been a while since I last updated here! Sorry bout that! Life has been crazy and as usual I forget to update here! So I looked to see when I last updated and wow it has been a while! Sorry! So I guess a lot has happened since my last post. So what have we been up to?? Larry was hurt at work, his hand went through a machine and it amputated part of his left hands ring finger. The doctor in the ER was amazing and was able to reattach it. It will never be the same as before the injury but it is there! He was off work for a while over that one. The kids are all good. They took part in the Library Summer reading program again! Loo read the most books for her grade! Sir N read the most for his grade! Baby E and Chubby both had lots read and won lots of prizes. They all won lots of prizes. They enjoyed the challenge of reading the most. They ended the contest with a pool party at the local pool and some drawings for prizes. We went and they had fun.</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have some friends in town that had a good sized pool and were given another one that was bigger so they gave us the one they had! It has been a lot of fun for the kids to have a pool here to swim and play in. We have been camping 1 time this year. It has rained so much that we have not been able to camp as much as we would like to. But the one time we went was more than 1 night and we had lots of fun! We plan on going more. Just need less rain and the ground to dry up so we can. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have not done much this summer mostly just stay home, relaxing, swimming in our pool, being lazy. We cleaned up a corner of the yard that has trees on 2 sides for privacy! and set up my porch swing and camp chairs there for a nice relaxing place to sit and relax and enjoy each other and friends. Its been a fun spot to sit and BBQ. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are in a different ward. Boundaries changed! So far we are enjoying the new ward. We also have a new Missionary center in Wichita with more Missionaries! We have Sisters in our ward now! With Larry's work schedule we have not been able to feed Missionaries. Now that we have Sister Missionaries we can! and HAVE! Since we are 45 minutes from Church we do not have the luxury of having the Missionaries in town every day to sign up to feed them so I just let them know if they will be in town and know it let me know ahead of time and I would love to feed them! So we have fed them dinner one time and they have visited us a couple times. We have been able to get to know another lady in the ward as well. She was the Missionaries ride. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have talked to the Young Women's President and Loo and the next youth Temple Trip I will chaperon and Loo will go as well! That will be in about 3 months! I am excited and look forward to that. I have not been to the Temple in a long time and Loo has never been. It will be her first time! </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sir N is 12 now so he could go as well! Maybe he will go as well. We are slowly working on getting them to attend their classes on Sundays. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We did not grow a large garden this year. We have some tomato plants and a few different pepper plants. And my herbs. I have spearmint,peppermint,chocolate mint, orange mint, cat nip, rosemary, lemon thyme, thyme, basil, 2 kinds of oregano, 3 kinds of lavender, and I cant remember what else. Oh and I have LOTS of Mullein growing all over the property. So we are working on containing it to one area and having a nice sized mullein patch. All summer long and spring we had these other plants popping up, I have said "don't kill it, move it so its not in the way, I know this plant but cant think of the name right now" So we have moved these plants with purple flowers. The kids and I were playing the game Wild Craft(about herbs) and I picked a card for Comfrey! Took one look and realized the plants I have been moving and protecting all spring and summer have been Comfrey plants! lol. felt kinda dumb for not being able to name the plants but grateful that I now know the name and that I have many growing here, I use Comfrey in many of the things I make. Comfrey salve is a big seller in my etsy store. So if I can get enough growing here I wont need to buy it anymore! I will know it is chemical free! and I love that idea! Exciting</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hmmm what else. Mom went on vacation a few months ago. She went from here to Roy's then Utah and back to Roy's. She decided to stay there. So she is now living in Colorado with Roy and Elesha. The kids have adjusted pretty good to having her gone. Chubs and Baby E had a hard time at first but are OK now. Loo stepped up and helps with dishes. Larry does them when he is off work, I try to help him as much as I can. When he is working Loo does them, I help her as much as I can. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The others do their chores and the house stays in pretty good shape most of the time. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We are getting ready for our school year to start! We will start September 9! We are going to the Kansas State fair for our 1st day! We are all excited! We love the fair! With Larry home again and me not working I am going back to schooling more like I used to! I have to be more organized with my medical issues. I am planning the year out like I used to. But am putting the materials we will use together by month to be used. Or at least that's my plan. I am trying to come up with a good way to keep everything organized by month to be used. All Septembers unit info in Sep box or something and so on. I do not dare just use boxes though so I need ideas. If anyone has good ideas I would love to hear them. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We will have a good year. We are planning lots of fun units. The younger kids have never done a unit on rain forests, solar system or volcano's. So we are going to do them again! I am looking forward to them. I had a lot of fun the first time with the older kids. I think it will be funner now, since I did it before and know things I would have done differently. and I know what worked good! </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been feeling a lot better for the most part the last few months. I have been able to start walking again! I still use a walker and wheelchair at times. Walker if I am walking anything other than around the house. But I have managed to walk to the park, library and school. I have been able to take over cooking again! I do almost all of it again! The kids and Larry help when I need help or when they want to. It has been nice. I still hurt 24/7 but most of the time with meds it is tolerable! My narcolepsy is unfortunately untreated right now. My doc moved and I have to see a new one. So I am without meds for it and have been having a very hard time staying awake. I fall asleep doing all kinds of stuff, pretty much anything. So for the time being I am not able to drive at all, not even here in town. So that part stinks but hopefully the new doc will put me on something the insurance will cover. Our current insurance no longer covers what I use. Next month our insurance changes back to blue cross! I am hoping that turns out to be a good thing. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am doing good in school. If I could manage to stay awake long enough I would be done with my herb course! I have 1/2 a quiz left to do. I am still enjoying school a lot. Business is going OK. Right now it is slower but that's OK, I couldn't keep up with more right now. Hopefully soon I will be able to do more and will get more business. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's it for now. Cant think of much else to say. We love family and friends and miss you all. We would love to hear from you all! Feel free t <a href="mailto:renaissancenh@gmail.com" target="_blank">email</a> us or comment here. I hope everyone has had a great summer. </span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So its time (past time actually) for an update for friends and family! We have not had a whole lot happen, life pretty much stays the same. The kids are doing good in school! We have not done any fun projects recently, I have been focusing on getting the basics done. I hope to feel up to Wacky Wednesdays soon. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Aldarion has moved back home! It has been nice to have him home. We still do not see him much since he works weird hours some days, but we enjoy it when we do see him. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Marcan is doing good, were using a program called etap for his school, along with Khan Academy. He is doing great. He wants to finish school a year early, so we will see how it goes. He is now 16 and looking for his first job! Larry has been helping with math and that's been awesome! He has made progress where I was unable to! </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Melista is doing good. She is doing a variety of things for school. Very eclectic! She is growing into an awesome young lady. She is doing great in school, I love watching her grow and learn and be an independent person. She is still very shy but that's OK.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Nic is doing good, he is using an online school this year. I think it will be the last year. He has been doing it for a few years and has done good but its becoming a pain. He is growing up and is an awesome cook! makes killer home made spaghetti sauce.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sebastian is great! Growing, learning, some things are finally clicking in his head! I love to watch him learn. His enthusiasm is contagious! He is such a lovable kid and he loves everyone.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Emma is good, no longer my baby. she is growing so fast, I am not ready for her to no longer be my baby, but I guess I don't get a choice. She is no longer a baby. She is learning a lot, learning to read, and do math and write. I love watching her play. She has a very nurturing side to her.</span><span style="font-size: small;">She loves to "doctor" any cuts or scratches anyone gets. She gets out the first aid kit and knows how to use the salves, herbs, and all that stuff. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Mom is still with us. She is doing OK. No more health issues popping up currently. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Larry and I are doing good. Focusing on surviving, healing our family, and just enjoying life, and paying bills. Larry loves his job! and is doing great with the company he works for.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I took a break from business due to my health. I am slowly getting it going again. Very slowly as I become stronger, or try to. We have membership at local fitness center and go work out as often as possible, I also use the Wii fit and exercise daily trying to improve my core muscles in hopes of it helping my pain in my back some. and in hopes of loosing weight that being on steroids caused! I hate steroids! </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In the process of getting my business going again we have redone my web sites, combining them into 1 site for everything. I am getting more traffic this way and more business happening. Also changed the newsletter for business. It is now called "The Cleaver Leaf, Getting to the root of things" Larry came up with the name. I still have the topics I had planned in it minus Wacky Wednesday. I want to keep it separate. I also linked my autism blog to business, "Under the umbrella and still getting wet" It can all be accessed at <a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1595306162"> </a><a href="http://www.renaissanceofnaturalhealth.com/">http://www.renaissanceofnaturalhealth.com/</a> Instead of having a store be a part of the site you can link to my <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/essencethrutheages" target="_blank">Etsy site</a> through the web site under "<a href="http://www.renaissanceofnaturalhealth.com/Essence-Through-The-Ages.html" target="_blank">Essence Through The Ages</a>"I would love to get some comments and feed back either on the site, the guestbook or email me at <a href="mailto:renaissancenh@gmail.com">renaissancenh@gmail.com</a>.

<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We finally got snow! LOTS of snow! We couldn't get out of our driveway for a couple days. We can finally get out and were being told more snow to come! I'm not even sure I dare try to go to Church tomorrow. So we are doing a wait and see thing. </span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I think that's about it. No new pics right now, sorry. I will get some soon. I do have some of everyone having a Lemonade(think tea party) with Emma, it was fun. Marcan was very embarrassed but still did it for his little sister, those pics will be up soon!</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #660000; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hope to hear from friends, family soon. Love you all! I will try to keep up with the blog better, I know I have been slacking badly!</span></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 24px;"><em><span style="color: blue;">please read and make your voice heard this is so important </span></em></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 24px;"><em><span style="color: blue;"><br /></span></em></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<span style="font-size: 24px;"><em><span style="color: blue;"> Your voice is needed!</span></em></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<em><br />C</em>reated by and for people with chronic pain, the NFMCPA believes our united voices:</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">educate policy makers and medical professionals;</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">generate supportive attitudes; and</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">change the way we receive health care. </li>
</ul>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">More than 100 million Americans live with chronic pain illnesses, including 10 million people affected by fibromyalgia. It is important to our individual recoveries that we, as patients (and our families and loved ones), become empowered and proactive.</span><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
Through email alerts, the NFMCPA provides important information for calls to action. When informed people unite, speak out, and get involved, current and future healthcare issues are resolved.<br /><br /><span style="color: red;"> <strong>TWO ISSUES ARE OF GREAT CONCERN!</strong></span><br /><br />#1 Last week, an FDA panel recommended changes for much stricter hydrocodone product* prescribing by changing them from Schedule III to Schedule II classification of drugs. No Physician's Assistants nor Nurse Practitioners would be licensed to prescribe these medications, making it difficult for people in chronic pain (especially in rural areas) to receive and fill pain prescriptions. The change would stop doctors from writing prescriptions for more than one month's supply at a time or calling in new prescriptions without seeing their patients. <br /><br />#2 The group Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing (PROP) sent a letter (in July 2012) to the FDA requesting they set regulations and caps on opioid analgesics for chronic non-cancer pain. (Those include all oxycodone medications AND hydrocodone medications if they are changed to Schedule II.) <a href="http://www.benchmarkemail.com/c/l?u=1FEAE92&e=26E4C7&c=2508E&t=0&l=1C208BB&email=OQgDPJ41eXfP0gvJOawOQP%2F%2FMZX3kDg4" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">Click here for full letter</a>. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
The NFMCPA understands reasonable and necessary safety measures, but we believe the recommendations for severely restricting opioids (hydrocodone, oxycodone):</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">to a maximum daily dose--equivalent to 100 milligrams for non-cancer pain; and</li>
<li style="margin-left: 15px;">a maximum duration of 90-days for continuous daily use</li>
</ul>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">are extreme measures. It concerns us that the patient, the person living with unrelenting pain, will suffer severe consequences from such drastic restrictions. No alternative treatments are being offered. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;" /><div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
Last week NPR (formerly National Public Radio) ran a story about inevitable conflicts between the pros and cons of opioid prescribing - <a href="http://www.benchmarkemail.com/c/l?u=1FEAF7C&e=26E4C7&c=2508E&t=0&l=1C208BB&email=OQgDPJ41eXfP0gvJOawOQP%2F%2FMZX3kDg4" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">read article</a>. The NFMCPA supports those physicians who want to give the best care possible to people with pain, and they voiced their opinion and concerns.<br /><br /><span style="color: red;"><strong> Now it is very important that <em>YOU</em>–a chronic pain patient,<br /><br /> and your loved ones who are also affected by your pain condition--<br /><br /><em> VOICE</em> <em>YOUR OPINION</em>! </strong></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">
Tell them of your concerns and personal stories on this matter. Contact the FDA and the NFMCPA. The FDA met last week and is scheduled for a second meeting February 4-5. In order to make knowledgeable decisions, FDA committee members need to hear from people with chronic pain. In simple terms, just tell them your story and how these restrictions will impact your quality of life.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;">

There is no doubt that combining your efforts with the NFMCPA’s advocacy will make a difference. Thank you for helping to educate people about chronic pain and the importance of your right to receive adequate pain treatment.</div>

For Halloween this year we decided to really change things! I am not a fan of Halloween, neither is Larry so we went to the Lake! Its to chillly for camping but not to cool to rent a cabin! So thats what we did! Rented a cabin! We had munchies and movies! The kids had fun! We all enjoyed it a lot. No stress, just us enjoying the day and night! LArry had to work early the morning after Halloween so I got up and took him to work, then went back to the cabin. Mom went back with me. We hung out till time to leave then loaded up, cleaned up and headed home! I am very grateful to have a lake so near by! I have more pics, just need to get them loaded and then I will blog them. The chairs in the pics are chairs Larry designed and built!! Pretty cool I think!<br />
How was everyone's Halloween? I hope awesome!<br />
We played hide N seek with the kids. Well sorta! The kids were playing and we helped them hide!<br />

<div style="font-size: 14px;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Hello all! Thought I better update! I know it has been a while! Lots of nothing spectacular taking place! So where to start?? I have been on steroids off and on for a few months for possible Lupus, docs cant make up minds on it. 1 says yes 1 says no, going in for a 3rd opinion! But in the mean time I get steroid treatment which has helped me more than anything I have been on yet! It is amazing what a difference they make. Unfortunately they carry some serious weight gain that I HATE! I managed to stop my weight from continuing to increase, then didnt feel well for a week and gained more. Now I am trying to stop the gain and hopefully loose some. I have never weighed so much. It is hard, and at times I feel torn on what I should do, take the steroids or not. With them I can keep up better than I have managed in years! Like today I made bread, chili, black rice pudding, ran errands, and only took 1 short nap! I am paying now for over doing it, but I did all that plus schooled the kids! Without steroids I cant even manage half that most days! Drives me crazy! I only do about 1 1/2 week at a time, taper off and break before the next round. My hope is that on the off time I can get weight under control better, maybe loose some and eventually be a healthier weight again. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">With "L's" job came the discount at the local fitness center! So we get memberships and have been using it! We usually try to go early mornings, or after work, depends on what shift Larry is on. Some days I go without him. He is doing awesome! Loves his job! We have health coverage, and all that good stuff for a change! And he is happy with where he works over all. He is doing great with everything. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Kids are doing good with life and school. We been trying to do more projects! I had an old toy wood kitchen cupboard in the basement I wanted to redo for Baby E, as a surprise but couldnt get to it without her. So I had L bring it upstairs and Emma and I redid it together! She helped me sand it, then paint it(boy painting with a 6 yr old is an event!) We then stenciled and stamped it. It turned out perfect for all her set sets! She is so excited to have a little cupboard to hold all her tea sets she collects. It was adorable. It was fun to do with her. Heres some pics of before, during and after! </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Chubs had earned some money and we took him to dollar store. He bought a wooden model car, like for pinewood durby. He paid for it and was so proud to buy it himself, he was so excited to do it with dad(L) it was cute. The 2 of them worked on it for the parts that he needed help, then he finished it up himself! He did the painting! and had a blast, he also did the sanding on it. Larry helped with glueing pieces together and Chubs did most of the rest himself, with a little guidance from dad. Here are pics of his car! </span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Would love to hear from family and friends. Were doing great, enjoying life, each other, being a family, and missing those who no longer live at home. We are trying to get ready for winter and cold weather, ice and snow LOL like we get enough snow here to count as a snow storm! Maybe we will this year!</span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Oh I thought of more! Peek achoo has learned how to use several power tools by helping to make the repairs on the house left by fire damage! He has loved it and learned a lot, he took right to the saw! I am very proud of him for learning and helping. It has been cool to watch him grow, and gain confidence through it! </span></div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">For halloween we are not staying home for the normal Halloween stuff. I am just not into it, so were going camping! We have rented a cabin at the lake! We will be in it for 1 night, they have power so we will watch movies, eat treats, and enjoy ourselves! I am looking forward to it, ids are as well! It will be different for us all. But there are so many reasons to not be home,it made no sense to stay home when we can start a new tradition and enjoy it! So hopefully this will be the start of a new Halloween fun tradition!</span></div>

Yes ramblings! you read that right! I think anytime I have written anything recently it ends up being ramblings, and most often makes me look crazy! So I felt it appropriate for this post. So lets see where to start? I guess with potato's!! Our potato's are ready to harvest! Larry has dug up 2 of the plants! We had enough to make a big pan of potato soup! yummy potato soup!</div>

I had an MRI to see what it would show on my back. I have a bulging disc and a narrowed vertebra that's pinching my sciatic nerve. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
May sound bad but it could be worse. Right now it is not bad enough for surgery!!! Also I need to build my core strength thats shot from having 7 babies, and the last year of limited mobility. If I can strengthen my core I can possibly prolong the time for surgery, or if lucky avoid surgery all together! So how do I manage to exercise in the pain I am in? There is good news there as well!! I saw my Rhumatologist he started me on a new med. It is helping. It is one for Fibromyalgia. And I am amazed at the improvement in my pain. I am still in pain. It does not help anything but the fibro pain, but that's a huge help in itself! So with that I am able to move more! I have decided on a routine to follow and will be working on core muscle. Through all the visits in the last few weeks we have come to the conclusion that my metabolism is shot. So I am gaining weight easier. BIG YUCK! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My adrenals are shot, thyroid shot, now metabolism. So on pay day I will be purchasing Natural stuff to take care of those 3 issues. No drugs from doc. I am going natural for it! I know I can. My energy levels are terrible between those 3 things and the Narcolepsy. Hopefully with more energy and less pain I will be able to get to a good work out daily and maybe more of life back! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's my hope at least.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my goal is to use my inversion table 2-3 times daily for a minimum of 5 min each. working up the time I hang slowly. Then to alternate between T-TAPP, Tai Chi and walking. I did a combo like this before and got into shape fast. So I hope it works again. They are all 3 easy on the body. Tai Chi stretches me good, T-TAPP is therapeutic work out and wont hurt my back. I still have to use the wheelchair for long outings. I do not know if that will change or not. But I hope that possibly I can get better control of my pain.</div>

Ok School for the kids! They are doing awesome so far this year! We start at 10:30 AM and it works well. The kids break for lunch and some play time then we finish up our school work. Usually done around 4 ish</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Emma and Sebastian are craft loving kids! They do crafts almost every day. They are learning very fast! I love watching them grow, learn and catch onto new concepts. Its great.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Marcan Melista and Nic are all doing great. They are learning, growing and trying to find out who they are in life. Teens are hard! Nic is not a teen yet thank goodness!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am doing good in my school. Have finished several courses!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Larry is great! He loves his job! It has been hard to adjust to the funky schedule he has but he likes the company he works for and loves what he is doing! We are working to read scriptures together more! and trying to make sure we read scriptures with kids every day! We started having the kids sing primary song and then reading the scripture that goes with it again. It used to work great, not sure why we stopped. But were back at it again.We do it at night when we have family prayer! and the younger children love to sing so they help us to remember to do it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
not sure what else has happened that's worth writing about recently. Our garden is still giving tomato's, we have potato's still to harvest, yams! and LOTS of different hot peppers! Bubba's peppers took off like crazy! I think that's about it for now! We would love to hear from friends and family!! </div>

We have not had a whole lot happen, life pretty much stays the same. The kids are doing good in school! We have not done any fun projects recently, I have been focusing on getting the basics done. I hope to feel up to Wacky Wednesdays soon. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #993300;">Aldarion has moved back home! It has been nice to have him home. We still do not see him much since he works weird hours some days, but we enjoy it when we do see him. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #993300;">Marcan is doing good, were using a program called etap for his school, along with Khan Academy. He is doing great. He wants to finish school a year early, so we will see how it goes. He is now 16 and looking for his first job! Larry has been helping with math and thats been awesome! He has made progress where I was unable to! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #993300;">Melista is doing good. She is doing a variety of things for school. Very eclectic! She is growing into an awesome young lady. She is doing great in school, I love watching her grow and learn and be an independent person. She is still very shy but thats ok. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #993300;">Nic is doing good, he is using an online school this year. I think it will be the last year. He has been doing it for a few years and has done good but its becoming a pain. He is growing up and is an awesome cook! makes killer home made spaghetti sauce. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #993300;">Sebastian is great! Growing, learning, some things are finally clicking in his head! I love to watch him learn. His enthusiasm is contagious! He is such a loveable kid and he loves everyone.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; color: #993300;">Emma is good, no longer my baby. she is growing so fast, I am not ready for her to no longer be my baby, but I guess I dont get a choice. She is no longer a baby. She is learning a lot, learning to read, and do math and write. I love watching her play. She has a very nurturing side to her.</span><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">She loves to "doctor" any cuts or scratches anyone gets. She gets out the first aid kit and knows how to use the salves, herbs, and all that stuff. </span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Mom is still with us. She is doing ok. No more health issues popping up currently. </span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Larry and I are doing good. Focusing on surviving, healing our family, and just enjoying life, and paying bills.</span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I took a break from business due to my health. I am slowly getting it going again. Very slowly as I become stronger, or try to. We have membership at local fitness center and go work out as often as possible, I also use the Wii fit and exercise daily trying to improve my core muscles in hopes of it helping my pain in my back some. and in hopes of loosing weight that being on steroids caused! I hate steroids! </span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">In the process of getting my business going again we have redone my web sites, combining them into 1 site for everything. I am getting more traffic this way and more business happening. Also changed the newsletter for business. It is now called "The Cleaver Leaf, Getting to the root of things" Larry came up with the name. I still have the topics I had planned in it minus Wacky Wednesday. I want to keep it separate. I also linked my autism blog to business, "Under the umbrella and still getting wet" It can all be accessed at <a title="Renaissance Of natural Health and Knowledge" href="../../www.renaissanceofnaturalhealth.com" target="_blank">www.renaissanceofnaturalhealth.com</a> Instead of having a store be a part of the site you can link to my Etsy site through the web site under "Essence Through The Ages"I would love to get some comments and feed back either on the site, the guestbook or<a title="Email" href="http://mce_host/renaissancenh@gmail.com" target="_blank"> email</a> me. You can sign up for the new news letter on the site or by emailing me at renaissancenh@gmail.com with "Cleaver Leaf" in the subject line. if you are interested in my flyer program to make cash or product/consultations/discounts email me to let me know. You can also put my logo up linking to my site for discounts. Just let me know your going to. </span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">We finally got snow! LOTS of snow! We couldn't get out of our driveway for a couple days. We can finally get out and were being told more snow to come! Im not even sure I dare try to go to Church tomorrow. So we are doing a wait and see thing. </span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I think thats about it. No new pics right now, sorry. I will get some soon. I do have some of everyone having a Lemonaid(think tea party) with Emma, it was fun. Marcan was very embarrassed but still did it for his little sister, those pics will be up soon!</span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Hope to hear from friends, family soon. Love you all! I will try to keep up with the blog better, I know I have been slacking badly!</span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;"> The Huffman Family</span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">www.renaissanceofnaturalhealing.com</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09147295989188297298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4439222628375852780.post-25954201723949535952012-09-08T15:58:00.001-05:002012-09-08T15:58:17.471-05:00gearing up for school to startwe are officially starting school Monday with a fair trip! Cant think of a better way to start off the school year! Larry gets to go with us this time! The kids are all looking forward to it.<br />
The kids are doing well.<br />
Marcan has been making salsa from the hot peppers in the garden! and fresh tomatos, until we ran out and I had to buy more tomato's. It is so good and sooo hot! It was perfect for taco night!<br />
He was going to do an online school but jest the process of getting started was crazy enough to make me change my mind fast. Melista was going to as well but neither are. We are going back to the way we used to home school!!!<br />
That has me excited. Since I am no longer a single momma I can focus more on their educations! Doing what I should be doing.<br />
Nic has learned to make spaghetti sauce from scratch, using fresh herbs from the herb garden! Talk about tasty!soo good. He already made it from scratch but without fresh herbs. I Love the sauce even more.<br />
Sebastian is growing and learning more every day. He wears his heart on his sleeve still. everything is personal for him! He keeps smiling no matter what and still says "Its going to be a great day" Since the fire in March the kids were very limited on toys, most were lost in the fire. A friends kids were thinning out toys and they decided to donate to our children. I was very touched when I say them giving some of their favorite toys to my children. They did not just pick out what they hated or broken things they gave their best and favorite stuff to the kids. Emma got 4 costumes so the girls play dress up when here, and a tea set that has been used daily! Sebastian was given a little toy tool table! with tools and pieces to it. Its in good shape and he was thrilled. They also gave some nurf guns! So nurf wars are at full go right now! So kids now have some toys, given from good friends. It was sweet.<br />
Emma is doing great, full of life and very happy! Her and Sebastian have been really into crafts these days! I brought out some craft stuff from my room and having access to it has been a good thing! Maybe I'll snap pics of some creations and post them.<br />
Emma cant wait for school to start! I have been busy prepairing for the year. With the recent dx of Lupus I am trying to plan well enough that if I have a flair the kids can continue on with school with little help, and Larry can help when he is home. He is doing great on his job! Likes it and has Sundays off now! Making it easier to go to Church! The only time he works on Sundays now is when he is on nights his saturday night shift ends at 7am. SO those weeks are iffy on making it to church but the rest of the time we can go easier. We recently had ward boundaries change putting us into a new ward. So far I am impressed with the new ward and like it a lot.<br />
As mentioned above I have recently been dx with lupus. This explains a lot. I see the rhumatologist on the 19th hope to know more about treatment plan by then. I am not to happy about the dx but it does explain so much. In a way its a relief to have a solid reason for my pain cycles.<br />
So thats it for life at this time. Were gearing up for school and enjoying it. Og I am doing good in school as well, still plugging away at it!<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.renaissanceofnaturalhealing.com</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09147295989188297298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4439222628375852780.post-19346874717086520352012-08-09T15:56:00.001-05:002012-08-09T15:56:48.459-05:00come on over see some pics!<font color="#660000"><font><font face="comic sans ms,sans-serif">Lots of pics added to the blog!

But NOT for my husband weekend means work harder than his normal job, as long of hours, doing hard work! This time was very productive! I LOVE the final outcome! now if you remember back a few weeks I got a new kitchen table! It was hard to part with my old very loved table, but I am learning to love the new table! It is rounded at the corners giving the appearance of a smaller table, and in some ways it is smaller. It is a touch longer, but not as wide at the ends. So any way back to the weekend! We had a long work bench type table in the kitchen to store food and other stuff on it. I had wanted to put it in the laundry room but it was too long to fit. But Larry has handy tools, saws! He removed a little of each end of the work bench! made it fit! So we moved it to the laundry room! It is now an appliance center! He mounted a surge protector to the front so I have space to plug things in. We have all my appliances arranged nicely! Including my new very loved Ninja Blender! I organized the food that had been on the lower shelf and storage under the table on the floor.<br />

So now the kitchen is clean and had space for my kitchen table! So Larry put the table in the kitchen! It is a slightly tight fit but it works. We have to fold up the folding chairs when not using them, but that's not a big deal.It makes it easier for food prep! we have the appliance center out in the laundry area with roasting pan, crock pots, ninja blender, rice cooker, steamers, toaster and any grinders! We have the table in the kitchen to use instead of the deep freezer to make food on!!! Maybe my deep freezer will last a little longer<br />
With the table out of the front room we have a real front room! we have space! We can move! It is sooo awesome I love it! My Teeter inversion table is in the front room so it is easier to use! I have plenty of floor space to do my Tai Chi and TTAPP!!! I am so excited! When I bought the house I was sure the table would fit in the kitchen, but it didn't. So we have had the table in the front room since. It has driven me nuts! Now I have more space and with all this comes more organization!!! The school stuff is more organized! The kitchen,food, spices, tea, and tea stuff all more organized! <br />
These are pictures of the kids at the small town fair we went to the other day!<br />

The coming school year is coming soon! We will officially start September 10th by going to the Kansas State fair!! But we are doing some work and field trips unofficially that will count towards next years school. We went to a small church fair a few days ago. The kids had lots of fun! I took lots of pics. We bought hamburgers, chips and drinks for dinner, only spent $15.00! The rides were small and free! The kids had LOTS of fun!<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.renaissanceofnaturalhealing.com</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09147295989188297298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4439222628375852780.post-31940968520861580832012-08-03T20:40:00.001-05:002012-08-03T20:40:52.293-05:00thinking! could be dangerous<br />

thinking about taking the newsletter and blog updates a step further to an online magazine! Not for sure but rolling thoughts around in my head. Looking for feed back, ideas, people willing to write, people with topic ideas(knowing my favorite things to write about), wondering where a good place to have it, as a blog or a web site? any ideas and thoughts? </div>

I guess I will go in order of age? starting with oldest, that would be GMA! </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Gma had surgery on her neck last month. I think most or all should know about it already. She is slowly recovering but doing ok. It was an ugly and large incision at first but not looking so bad now. She still has to take things easy and not over do it. </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Next up Larry! He is working full time and got a position he wanted badly, and that position brought a raise! Our Insurance kicks in the 1st of August! Health, eye, dental, and prescriptions! He is doing great! He keeps busy doing things that need done around the house when he is home. He works 12 hour shifts, and each week changes from day/night and 3/4 days a week. It is very hard to keep up with his schedule. I am so proud of him and the changes, improvements he has made, </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">So not that brings me to me. I am still in business for myself doing health consultations, finishing school, selling my herb balms and other stuff! Health issues are same as always, and nothing worth discussing today!</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">all right time for Kids!</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We just finished up our school year! to celebrate we went camping and had our Huffman family Olympics and awards together! It was so much fun! </span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kids are doing good. Bubba and Loo are at a lock in tonight. So its me and younger kids home. Were gonna watch movies, be bums, maybe do pop corn!</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Kids are growing so very fast I cant keep up with them. I have lots of pics to share!</span><br />
<span style="color: #660000; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">We have a garden this year and each kid has their own little spot! The kids have enjoyed that. Their garden spots are doing well. We have been getting tomato's, yellow squash and lots of herbs! I FINALLY have herbs gardens and herbs growing on my porch! I love it! I have taught Baby E how to pick mint to make tea. She knows how to pick more than one type to mix them, its great! So we have LOTS of tea fresh from the herb garden. I made spaghetti the other day for the first time with my fresh herbs! It was soooo good. They ate it all and I had made enough for 2 meals, my largest bowl was over flowing and not one bite was gone. I could not believe it. I have been reading on harvesting herbs, freezing versus drying. I am going to do both.. I bought some ice trays to freeze them in. I read about harvesting herbs, chopping them up, fill each section with herbs then cover with water, freeze, remove from ice cube trays, place in labeled baggie and store in freezer! pull out when you need it and throw in whatever your cooking! I cant wait to try this! I have a sage plant that is growing great, and oregano, basil, lemon verbena.. well you get the point.</span><br />

It will make you stop and think about the good and bad things in life and how your sometimes blessed through our experiences, good and bad. Finding ways to continue on with your day, allowing it to be a great day even if it starts out not so good. We do not have to allow all the negative experiences we have form our days, our life. We can learn to see the good through the bad, learn to see the blessings in every part of life. I read this because I have a special needs child who says every morning"Today is a great day" It made me think of him when I saw the book, and wonder if I could be more like my son. This truly is a great book to read for anyone wanting to learn to see through the annoyances in life and find a Great Day waiting every day.<br />
I would suggest this book as an excellent read!<br />

So its been a while! But I think I will be able to pick up the pace some now! By combining personal, home educating, and business!<br />
I am in need of a news letter for business purposes, to draw attention to what I do and the services I offer, and the products I offer, but not just send out spam and junk, and sales ad's. I was thinking about all the people who ask me to continue wacky Wednesday, and/or Huffin Stuff news letter. They I got the brilliant idea of combining my business with home school and life! So this is the first of the new Huffin Stuff, Featuring Wacky Wednesday. There will be others that feature Funky Friday, or business services, or product, health tips, home school ideas, natural safe ways to clean and get rid of unwanted germs! Possibly a guest writer here and there, and I think some links that may interest readers.<br />
My hope is that what started out fun stays fun! That readers continue to follow, spread the word and help me grow. This will be written and received several ways. Those ways will me through 2 blogs, email, and possibly Face book. Although I am unsure about posting the entire thing on FB, or just a snippet and a link to one blog or another. I have 2 blogs, you may follow one but not the other, thats ok!<br />
So this weeks Wacky Wednesday will be Rock Painting! I have a kit to get us going! But plan on a rock hunt and nature walk somewhere during it. When we are done with our creations as usual I will post new pics!<br />
Next up I know one section of Huffin Stuff will always be Wacky Wednesday! Can not do away with that, it started the news letter.<br />
But what to call the other sections? I was thinking a section on Natural Living from caring for your body and hair naturally to house cleaning Naturally. Ways to make your own cleaners, supplies, places to buy, and other Natural Living type stuff.<br />
Then a 3rd section on Holistic Health Care. Things like preventive care, weight control, diet, nutrition, herbs, tea, Reflexology, and other Alternative Health Care options.<br />
Then finally a Q & A section! You the readers can write and ask me questions about Wacky Wednesday/Funky Friday, home school, Living Naturally, and Holistic Health Care. I will answer the questions weekly. If there are to many questions and I am unable to answer them all I will try to save the unused questions for the next news letter.<br />
So to wrap it up welcome to the New Huffin Stuff News Letter. Covering Home school, Wacky Wednesdays/Funky Fridays, parenting, Natural Living, Holistic Care, and finally Q & A with Lady Jae. Please send all questions to ladyjae@renaissanceofnaturalhealth.com put huffin stuff Q & A in subject line so I know its not spam.<br />
I may not know it all, but if I dont have the answer I can search, or find someone else with the answer. Please send any topics or suggestions you may have to the above email, or leave a comment here!<br />
For Now I am still unsure how frequently this will come out, I am thinking bi-weekly!<br />

March 23rd 2012 our upstairs had an explosion we do not know what it is that exploded just that it did and burned a lot. It blew out windows, and made a mess. The slide show shows the damage caused by fire and smoke. We watched the smoke roll from the house for 45 minutes while we watched the fire department try to get the hydrant(that dont work) to work, their trucks that should have had water in the m were empty. It was frustrating. The damage was minimal but would have been worse if they had gotten water on it sooner.<br />
We spent 1 week in a hotel paid for by 3 organizations, we have been blessed in many ways through this. I'll post that in another blog! I plan on keeping a picture journal of the repairs as we go!! As usual!<br />
So here is a short blog and short update, luckily it was daytime and no one was hurt.<br /><div class="blogger-post-footer">www.renaissanceofnaturalhealing.com</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09147295989188297298noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4439222628375852780.post-52751494261415833772012-03-20T22:00:00.001-05:002012-03-20T22:00:38.493-05:00Do You Bake Review YUMMY<p><span style="color: #993300;"> I <span style="font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif;">recently <span style="font-size: x-small;">had the opportunity to try out one of the products from "Do you Bake." I tried out the Frenchy Chicken and Quinoa. I thought it would be a good dish to try since we all like Quinoa here and chicken. I opened the box, and pulled out the ingredients. The herb package in it smelled awesome! It has the Quinoa and herbs im the box. I needed to purchase the chicken, tomatoe and onion on my own. Not a big deal to me. The box says it serves 4. I was unsure what I was going to do, since our family is bigger than 4. In the end I decided to cook extra Quinoa with that in the box, and I cooked 4 Large Chicken Breasts, but I cut them into smaller pieces so everyone could have some. Making the dish was simple. Spread your chicken out in the pan in a circle. Drizzle Olive Oil over the tops of the chicken, Then sprinkle the herbs in the packet over each piece of chicken. I had plenty of herbs to cover the chicken. You then mix the onion and tomato together, put them in the middle of the pan of chicken and bake. While it bakes you cook the quinoa. When it is all done you put the quinoa in the middle of the chicken, ontop of the tomato and onion and serve.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Anyone that knows me and my family knows I have some children that can be PICKY! Making a meal that everyone likes, and that has no complaints does not happen every day. But this dish was good, it smelled great. The herbs flavored the chicken just right, not to strong but definately there. ALL 5 kids ate it and liked it! So in my mind this is a dish thats a hit. I would and probably will buy this again. I wish it came in a package for a larger family, that is the only drawback I saw it was not enough for my army. But I run into that aot. The herbs that were in the package were so good and I love to cook with large amounts of herbs! I want to taste the herbs I am cooking with and I did with the Frenchy Chicken. </span></p><p><span style="color: #993300; font-family: 'comic sans ms', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So if you have a chance to buy it for your family go for it. </span></p><div class="blogger-post-footer">www.renaissanceofnaturalhealing.com</div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09147295989188297298noreply@blogger.com0
