"I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all i still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing."
Agatha Christie

Beautiful Sacramento!

Every day i fall more in love with my new home! This particular picture is from a park 10 minutes away from my apartment. Every morning i wake up and take a look outside i just want to smile, it is such a blessing to live here and enjoy this wonderful weather. There is so many more places and things to explore, everything is so intriguing. I finally found a job, its part time but that just means i have more time to enjoy this place! I only wish my family was here to share my joy with me, for right now im just spending a lot of time with my husband, alone. And i have to admit, i absolutely love having him all to myself!!!!:)

My short history.

  • I was born in Kazakhstan and lived there for 6 years
  • Lived in Germany for 3 years.
  • Lived in Russia (Kaliningrad) 4 years.
  • Moved to Washington in 2003
  • My fathers side consists of mostly Germans, however my  grandma is Chuvash.
  • My mothers side is Russian and Ukrainian.
  • My last name is German, i prefer to speak Russian so i say I'm half German, half Russian. :)
  • German was my first fluent language.
  • When people ask me where am i from, i don't know what to answer.
  • My parents had 9 kids, I'm the 7th child.
  • 6 boys and 3 girls. (girl, 2 boys, girl, 2 boys, girl, 2boys, in that order.)
  • My oldest sister is 33 my youngest brother is 14.
  •  In 2006 my two older brothers died in a car accident. Vasiliy and Alex.
  • My brother Alex and I went to 1st through 6th grade together. i went to school early.
  • In 2008 i got baptized. graduated. got my license.
  • In 2009 i got married to my boyfriend since 2005.
  • To this day I've been married for 625 days.
  • In October 2009 my mom passed away, for several medical reasons.
  • By 2010 it was just my father and my two younger brothers left in the house. Dad got married.
  • I moved to California in 2011, mostly because i needed to get away and start somewhere fresh, where i wont be constantly reminded of the loss of my mom and my brothers. I need to try to be happy. My husband and i got a chance to move and we took it, while we could.
  • This year i found out i might never be able to have children, the only thing that calms me down is knowing that my husband is by my side just like he has been. I now realize that he has been my brother when i needed my brothers, my mother when i missed my mom so much, my family when i needed them and the best husband i could ever wish for.
  • I am currently unemployed.
  • I obsess over trees. autumn is my favorite season.
  • I love to draw and paint.
  • Life=music.
So here is a little bit about me, i figured this might help people understand my posts a little bit better in the future. I know God has a plan for everything, and no matter how hard life can get it is still so beautiful and i am thankful to be alive.

Time to join the Blogging world!


As i was sitting at home waiting for my husband to come home from work, i realized how much i missed writing.. 
Expressing my feelings and my whole life in writing. I felt like my whole life was just passing by, i knew i needed to somehow record my story so that later i could look back and remember how i became the person i am today..
 A lot of my posts will be about the one i share my life with, my family, friends. The things that make me happy and the things that almost broke me. About life, just the way it is.
