My blog is almost a year old and because of these last months before my graduation, I have already hit a wall with my writing and photography. But I want to be back. I am going to change my blog reading list, find some new inspiration, and continue my blogging journey.<br />
<div>
Yesterday was my last day of clinic! We have one more not-so-hard week of school before graduation! Soon I will be an RDH (registered dental hygienist). Oh it is so hard to believe! You know what else is hard to believe - my parents are gifting me with a family seven day cruise to Alaska! My dream come true! Aaaah! Is this finally the time when I get rewarded for two years of hell?! I am nothing but grateful to God and everyone He sent my way to help me through this crazy time! </div>
<div>
I still can't believe I am done, but it will slowly sink in, bit by bit, and every time it does, I am just happy it is in private, because I start crying. Man, what an experience - life changing for sure!</div>
<div>
So much is behind now, things it feels like I will never forget (and hopefully forgive some day), but even more is ahead! </div>
<div>
What might seem to be little things are now taking place, but to me they have great meanings: </div>
<div>
- I can now make coffee in the morning (I have the time!) </div>
<div>
- I can finally put the earrings back in (I was wearing them non-stop since I was 6 years old, they are my grandma's, and the instructors made me take them out for who-knows what reason, oh cause they weren't posts, or something, but now they are back in my ears!) </div>
<div>
- I get to wake up slowly, not jump out freaked out by the thought that I didn't remind my patient about our appointment.</div>
<div>
I AM FREE is all that is! And it feels amazing!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here are a couple of instagrams to catch up on these two past weeks of my silence...</div>

I got a new phone - one of the graduation gifts from my Jenya!</div>

I don't count days till it is over, I just know that I am very close and that it is scary! Like, less-than-a-month-left type of close. I just really hope that God walks me through it, because I feel overpowered by the significance of these couple of weeks in my life. I barely craft, I don't blog, I don't even read my favorite blogs anymore. I did start a journal, a personal one, just because I feel like these emotions are so hard to share, and I barely have time or emotional strength to analyze them, but I want to remember them, because at the end it will all work out and I want to remember how scared I was and how God just made it all work. <br/><br/><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwC0IQFTmYU-mtY-nEbBSXQ7pyuSlJSFg123iO-UKjggYDp394Kd_RCBZK5ffmDMBVcTKOY3Sfd4j3S2A7a439LiRdL_FNMaiIL_dxcvwUcb4jJsyFiTq3xb00foSYPWAeYPllDt4vYAc/s640/blogger-image-1790128965.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwC0IQFTmYU-mtY-nEbBSXQ7pyuSlJSFg123iO-UKjggYDp394Kd_RCBZK5ffmDMBVcTKOY3Sfd4j3S2A7a439LiRdL_FNMaiIL_dxcvwUcb4jJsyFiTq3xb00foSYPWAeYPllDt4vYAc/s640/blogger-image-1790128965.jpg" /></a></div>Anastasiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15669923846137386224noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5145381945970243168.post-56607468389496196662013-04-15T23:15:00.002-07:002013-04-15T23:15:31.346-07:00Crafting clubNow on Fridays again, we finally gathered together for a little bit of crafting. Friday was a great day, I first walked with my new friend and my two little girlies, then to Sonya for some crafting. Crafting really gets my brains back together, otherwise I would be brain dead by now. S thank God for this club of ours!<br />
<br />
Tomorrow is a big day! I will become a Godmother! Very exciting! <br />

My husband is my best friend! This Sunday I told him I will go wherever he wants me to, so we went to the desert to shoot his toys and to go offroading. Just two of us having fun, even though it is not what I usually prefer doing, being with my husband is the best activity! And of course I didn't miss the opportunity to capture a little bit of beauty even in the desert.

However I don't feel inspired to write about it all. I passed a couple of tests, including the one needed for my license (thank you Lord!) and it feels like I am getting closer. I am drawing my last strength for this, and I really hope that I will blog more in the future... For now, here are some instagram photos.

Only three days ago I was worrying sick that I had no patients to test on, almost heading into depression. He sent me a patient and I was able to organize 20 more people to come for the rest of my class! I mean from trying to find a person for myself, guided by God, I went to organizing this big community outreach! How absolutely amazing is that?! This situation of disparity once again showed me how amazing my family is - my mom, brother, dad, and husband supported me through this thing! Without them I would be nowhere. <br />
Huge, right? More than I could ever imagine!<br />
But wait! There is more! He also sent me a bundle of joy! I've met a new friend at church. Her name is Anastasia too! And even her alone would be more than enough fun and joy! But she also has two little girlies that are going to become my little Godchildren in two weeks! I am going to be a Godmother to two beautiful girls! How amazing is that?! We met last Sunday, but already went for a morning walk in the park with kids and talked. I can tell we will be great friends! I fed the little ones and changed their diapers - so much fun for me (you know how crazy I am about little children). I am learning so much from Anastasia - she is a great mother with so much wisdom! You have to have wisdom to have two little babies on your hands when you are my age!<br />
Can you tell how blessed I am yet! For my feeble trust in God, He rewarded me with more than I could ever wish for! <br />
Trust in Him is all I can say... <br />

In this life, I don't want to be running around town all day long looking for patients and then crashing on my bed exhausted. I don't want to be thinking of all the papers I need to write tomorrow. I don't want to be responsible for my life, yet have very little to do when it seems to be shaking. I don't want to be investing my time and energy in something that might not come to be at all...<br />
In my mind, I imagine this free life of traveling, and crazy night hikes, of coffee with the sun rise on the beach, of my old film camera in my hand and a silk skirt on my hips under an Eiffel tower, of wet grass on my feet and sun in my face and wind in my hair and salt on my lips, of irresponsible actions and unimaginable moments - of young life that I somehow skipped...<br />
Maybe I shouldn't have started thinking of children and family so early in life, maybe I shouldn't have placed all these responsibilities on my poor head before I even tasted the free life. Straight out of school into college, straight out of first love into marriage, straight out of childhood into adulthood. Now I feel like I missed something great, something I had to grow tired of first, before I got where I am now... Maybe I worked too hard on guarding my thoughts and actions, on keeping myself at a balance...<br />
Or maybe I am just tired, stressed, and discouraged... Because I love my husband and want to have his children and take care of our house, and build our life together.<br />
My head tells me that I should erase these words and shoo away these thoughts, but my heart whispers that when this is over, I will buy film for my camera, find a silk skirt, load new music into my ipod and go somewhere where the air tastes salty, wind is cool, grass is wet, sunsets are breathtaking, and thoughts are light... After all we can be free together.

О будущем нимало не тужи, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Церковным людям не к лицу тревога. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Все будет так, как нужно для души: </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Нет ничего на свете ближе Бога!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Иеромонах Роман</div>
<br />
Повторяю этот стих в голове как молитву. "Все будет так как нужно для души" потому что грядут тяжелые и напряженные для меня времена. Возможно после следующей недели два года моих трудов закончатся видимым провалом. Но сколько жизненной мудрости вместил Господь в это короткое время, а значит ничего не зря. Жизнь с Богом несравнимо легче чем без Него, ведь всему дан смысл, теплота, и забота. В ответ же спрашивается душевное усердие и любовь к Нему и смирение перед Его волей.<br />

It is interesting that they stayed in the store and we found them later and I ended up taking them back to their house.<br />
But it is true - I didn't like the way they looked. The big hair the faded and stained clothes in crazy colors, and the father, according to Jenya, looked like he would be driving a minivan kidnapping little kids - in other words plain creepy.<br />
So I gave them a great makeover, that actually involved shaving their heads - literally because the mother's hair was so big, I had to shave it down before wigging her. I even performed plastic surgery on the father to shave his huge cheek bones down before hiding is crazy little teeth behind a mustache and a beard.<br />
They are pretty happy with the way the look now, and so am I. I shopped around for another doll family and non of them looked the way I wanted them to, but these three are it!<br />
I came up with some random names for them too.<br />

I guess with a week away from school, I have more to tell than with months in it... So this one is about something I did today - finally put floors and tile and the kitchen I renovated earlier in! There is much more to be done - adding food and island and maybe a rug, and some wall art, but it is definetelly exciting to have my first room completed! It is looking cozy and I am hopeful for the rest of the house to turn out good some day! For the lights in the kitchen I put two spotlights under the hood above the sink, I like the way it turned out!<br />
Now my new obstacle is to figure out some kind of turning table for it - should I buy a pretty table for $150 or should I but a turning thing and look for a cheaper table... That is my dilemma at this point.

I took that in consideration and switched gears to a lovely bolero that I can wear on a cool summer day. I found a beautiful pattern <a href="http://www.garnstudio.com/lang/us/pattern.php?id=5553&lang=us" target="_blank">here</a>, and it is exactly what I would love to wear! I immediately ordered the yarn from them and I can't even begin to explain how delicate and soft it is! The color is amazing too! <br />
Now when I got my yarn And began knitting, the pattern kicked my butt right from the start, I could not figure out the schematics - where do you start, which way do you go? Nothing looked right. I had to take each piece and knit that little sample until it looked right. Once I figured it out, it wasn't so bad, I just need to constantly pay attention to what I am doing. <br />
So this is my new project. Any new projects, friends? <br />

My mommy brought us a little terrarium and a pretty plant to live in it, I sure hope it will survive, but for now it just sits pretty on our kitchen window. <br />
Also my hubby and I played Monopoly a couple of days ago, it was fun, but I felt really bad for taking his game money. <br />
I finally bought the supplies to wire my doll house, now the whole family is working hard to put lights into every room. <br />
Tomorrow is the first time that our crafting club is meeting at my house! I am so excited! <br />

We are getting tiny new leaves on our little orange tree. It is hot, but bearable so I am trying to be outside as much as possible. I have one simple but unflattering task at this point - study for my regional board exam that I am taking in two days on Tuesday to get my license upon graduating. It is a big deal as I have to remember (or more like relearn) everything they tried to cram in our poor brains in the past two years. It is an eight hour test with over 300 questions and it is intimidating to say the least. So to try and make it a little less hideous and more pleasurable, I go outside as much as possible. <br />
Yesterday I went to my mom's house and studied on their backyard basking in the sun and accompanied by Mia. <br />

Today we all went fishing on Colorado river. It was quite a trip as we were forced to look for fishing license for three hours! (Boulder City doesn't sell them - so weird for a city built right by the water!) but at the end we finally got there, but didn't catch anything, still it was nice to sit by the water with a bunch of funny guys. Beats sitting at home for sure! <br />

This lovely weather makes my life a little easier right now.

I have to say I look forward to that meeting all week long - it is one of a few happy things in my crazy life right now. I was working on my hexagon quilt this time (it is slowly moving along), Mila was working with paper, Sonya was painting eggs for Easter, and Marsel was crocheting something new. Mom couldn't attend, but I am sure she had fun riding bikes with dad somewhere in California instead. We had tea with scones and discussed our past and future. <br />
Next week we are finally meeting at my place, so I can show everyone all of my finished projects and new toys. Plus it is a spring break for me, so I can cook something fun. I can't wait!<br />
Our club is slowly growing, and I am excited about that! <br />

P.S. lately I am feeling lazy (or overwhelmed) and I post all my photos untouched. I kinda like them that way, they are more real to me. So yes, I know they are darker than they should be, but that is how I like them!

And traditionally this week is called Maslenitsa, which is when you make crapes and eat a lot of meat and milk products to prepare for over a month of fasting. I was fortunate to get a Tuesday off school, so I made crapes for my family. With the frying pan that my mother in law gave us it was so easy and they came out wonderful! I also conjured a couple of fillers like fried mushrooms, ground beef with onions, and ground strawberries with guava extract for desert. Traditionally the crapes were dipped in butter or sower cream or honey. <br />
My husband also treated everyone to his home brewed beer, which had huge success! <br />
<br />
Here is how I make them. It is my mother's in law recipe modified by my hubby.<br />
You will need:<br />
4 eggs<br />
1 stick of butter<br />
1.5 cups of flour<br />
1/4 gallon milk<br />
1 tbsp sugar<br />
1tsp salt<br />
<this 20="" about="" crapes="" make="" will="" you=""><br />
<br />
Pour a cup or so of milk in a mixing bowl, add eggs, and melted butter, salt, and sugar. Gradually mix in flour with a whisk or a mixer to avoid clumps. When everything is mixed add the remainder of the milk and mix well. Then heat a frying pan (my special pan has a flat bottom and a heat dispenser disk on the bottom, but any flat pan will work, preferably non-stick). You DO NOT need to butter up the pan if it is non-stick, if you do the crapes might not come out nice, they will separate in pieces. Pour a thin layer or batter on a frying pan and maneuver it quickly to dispense the batter. Then leave it for a minute or so, depending on how thick you poured them - you want them to be golden brown, then with a spatula go around the rim of the crape to separate it from the pan then flip it. That is it! They are, as you can tell by the recipe, pretty filling and oh so yummy! You can fill them with anything you like - make desert or a main dish!<br />
If they don't come out right at first, don't worry, it takes skill, we even have a saying in Russia - first crape always comes out in a clump (or something like that). </this><br />

She always encourages me by getting me things I really want, and who could say no to that?! Not this girl! Plus it is always so much fun to hang out with her!<br />
This Saturday after church we stopped by an antique mall. This place is huge and filled with unending treasures of the past. This is the place my doll house came from. Now in this same place we found a family of dolls to happily reside in my not-so-finished-yet house. They need some pampering, may be some hair and new clothes would help, but I am excited to have them there - now there is someone to do all the light and shingles installing. Haha!<br />
We also found a true treasure - a pair of dolls in traditional Russian costumes made in the 60s. These dolls probably came from Russia, because it is just hard to imagine that during 60s something like that would be made in the US. They also went home with me. <br />
I will need to give a tour of the doll house some day to show some of the progress I have made, there is not much, but I will share as soon as I get to it.

I also bought a whole set of low cost white dinnerware that we had fun customizing. We each did a mug, a small and large plate, and a bowl. Who would have thought that it could be so fun - the possibilities are endless! Next time we do it again! <br />
Oh and Mia (the cat) seemed to really like Mila's rug that is by the way almost finished!

On this extremely rainy day I finished my <a href="http://theloveliestlullaby.blogspot.com/2013/01/new-knitting-project-babywearing.html">shawl</a> and got lovely flowers from my lovely man. Feeling like a lucky girl here, pretty happy with the shawl - it is super soft and even though one skein was a bit darker than other three, it is barely visible and is like a wink to me, saying "that is hand dyed for ya!"...<br />

I am excited, because this is the season of change for me. I am going to be done with this hell called Dental Hygiene School. Also because I love the weather here during this time. The only thing I can't stand is the time change - waking up at 5am now is not great at all! <br />
Things happened here, little things, but I want to share them now that I have a second. So buckle up for a few posts in a row, because I don't want to stuff it all in one big mumble. For now, welcome my pink Spring, I have been waiting for you for so long!

I really don't think this is a good place to go into details, but let's just say there was a lot of uncontrolled sobbing and saying out loud in an empty room what I would have told them all if I wasn't brought up to respect people. Oh man, I don't know why this had to happen to me now, but even though I don't feel like I deserve it, I have no choice but to trust God and to do my best to not let them break me. Luckily I have my amazing family to support me, and it took all of them to convince me that I am actually worth anything in this life, unlike my instructors are working hard to convince me... Anyways... What can I do but to go into my favorite yarn shop and buy uncontrollably until I feel better. Haha! Well not exactly, there is a project that I started spontaneously during these bad times, so now for the first time ever I currently am working on two knitting projects... It's a beautiful cowl that I found <a href="http://www.liveinternet.ru/users/werada/post262517684/">here</a>, the pattern is not correct and there is no specification on materials so I'm just winging it. I got myself a beautiful blend of merino and silk in pink for the cowl itself, and silk blend in ivory for the lace. <br />
<br />
I am not looking forward to the graduation anymore, and even less to the three months before graduation that I have to face, but what I am looking forward to is our Alaskan cruise that my lovely family is treating me to in the Summer when all of this hell is going to be over. Yep, I am so lucky to have my family, without them I would go into some deep depression or something.<br />

As always I had such a fun and relaxing time. I am also one third way through making enough hexagons for my baby quilt!
