God's awesomeness...

So...have you ever felt so overwhelmed by God's blessings that you don't even have words to describe it? Well..that's how I feel now. I am in total shock...awe...a bit overwhelmed (a lot annoyed by this keyboard that types what it wants!!)....a lot scared...but overall very thankfull for EVERYTHING God did for me these past few days. Why?? why does He choose to bless me..a sinner....is beyond my comprehension.
LOVE....yeah..that's what it is...HE LOVES ME!! HE...GOD...HE KING OF THE UNIVERSE...LOVES ME..ALINA...CARMEN...BAHNEAN!! Wow...THAT by itself is overwhelming.
Today I could have a hundred things to be thankful for...and it's only 1pm...
1) woke up next to my husband for the first time in over 2 weeks...
2) was able to make breakfast for him...
3) I had money to do my laundry...
4) My heat is working (hahahaha...see Evie...I do appreciate my luxury!!!..thanks for the reminder)
5) I have friends I can call to share my good news with
6) I have parents I can speak with any hour of the day....and they're always available...
7) my TV broke down..which caused me to do OTHER things that get put on the back burner b/c of the TV...

There...that's that for now...
And on top of EVERYTHING...my calendar that Esti gave me way back in 1998 told me something amazing today:
"Your heavenly Father knows your needs. He will always give you all you need from day to day" (Luke 12:30-31)

Now THAT'S an encouragement....and a reality in my life!!!
I hope you are blessed by those words just as much as I am...

I hate Holloween!!!

I hate it so much that I don't even know how to spell it...I guessed!!! But of course, to satisfy your boss (because working like a mad woman and bring in the bucks apparently doesn't do it!!!), you have to attend his birthday party, which happens to be a costume party. But up until today, I didn't realize it was a holloween costume party (b/c it's not on the 31st!!!)....but you would think my blonde moment wouldn't last for two months. But here I am...having to attend my first holloween party (good thing everyone has to dress like in the 60's or 70's, so I think witches and devils are excluded (although they really mark the 70's...hahahahaha). Whatever!!
So now i have to figure out how to dress....so excuse me while I google the 60's and 70's!!!!!

One word...CHANGES EVERYTHING!!

It's amazing to me how you mention the word BABY and EVERYONE goes crazy!!! I made the mistake of writing something along the lines of Alina, Baby and Marius...and all my friends (gotta love them!!) got all crazy about it!!! So to settle things...WE ARE NOT HAVING A BABY! and that is definetly not how I would let all my "real" friends know about it. So..now that THAT is out of the way, let's get back to the real things: CALIFORNIA!!!

California girl..California girl..that is sooooo me!!! I fell in love...ALL OVER AGAIN...I want to re-pack everything (as much as I hate packing), drive across the country in a U-HAUL and settle all my belonging and my husband (no baby, remember!!!) to the beautiful state of California! I totally see why people will move there!! So..I'm taking my Esti w/ me (Dani will be EXTATIC!!!)...I got my other friend there (why is this italics??!!)...and family...LOVE IT!!
It was an amazing trip....there is nothing that I didnt enjoy about California (maybe the homeless in downtown LA..but I am not planning to move next to the soup kitchen!!).
I gotta go do my laundry...unfortunately this trip required a lot of outfit changes and you don't realize how many shirts and pants you dirty until you come home and need to do 4 loads of laundry!!!
