Wow. Has it really been that long?

I seriously don't even know where to start. A lot has happened since my last post. So much so that I'm afraid I'm going to have to just start over. Here's a quick, real quick, recap.

  • I moved in with my parents
  • My grandmother passed away
  • The economy went to crap
  • I've lost no weight
  • I fell down the stairs at work
  • Got a new girl at work and I love her!
  • Got married
  • Wait, no I didn't. Not in the real world at least
  • Grew my hair out
  • Getting ready to cut it
  • Quit smoking
  • Remember I lost no weight? Well, I put some on since quitting
  • Helped my friend birth a beautiful baby girl! A highlight of my life so far

There's a little of what's been going on. So, what have I currently been up to you ask? Good question! Let me tell you!

I enjoy living with my parents. For the most part. It's really not as bad as one would think.

I've been enjoying the lake as much as possible. I haven't been there in a few weeks. That saddens me. Being there makes me feel at home.

I was sick a couple weeks ago. It wasn't pretty. We thought something might be wrong with my gallbladder. We did an ultrasound and through that we found that there were "spots" on my liver. I had a CT scan last Friday to follow up with that. That was a very scary test. It really scared me mentally. I know now what my patients go through. That test showed fatty tissue on my liver, which gives me more reason to lose weight. It also showed areas of concern therefore I am having an MRI tomorrow morning. I'll be honest. I'm nervous. It's complicated. I'm sure I'm fine. But still.

Anyways....I turn 30 next month. That's weird. I'm still trying to figure out what I wanna do. It's a big number so I wanna make it good. I think mom and Christy are working together to set something up. Maybe for the first time I won't have to plan my own birthday. Then again, I'm such a control freak that I'm sure I'll end up doing it.

Work has been good but stressful. There are times I want to work somewhere where people are healthy. I get tired of them dying. I couldn't do it if it weren't for the girls I work with.

Alright, I'm done for right now. It won't be long until I post again. Hopefully ;-)

Keeping you in my thoughts! Medical stuff is scary and does make you feel for your patients. I know - I'm going through my own stuff as well right now. I hope everything turns out well for you :)

Do I know this "Jen" person?

Yah for an update! Hang in there. We'll be praying for you tomorrow morning... you can do it! Think good thoughts. I'll be up all morning (viewing at 10 a.m.) so call me if you need to.

And might I add how cute that baby girl you helped birth is! ;) I totally couldn't have done any of it without you and it was the highlight of both our lives too! (if there is ever a next time, try not to push with me:)) I don't think I can ever express how much we love you and thank you for how you were there for both of us and we know everything is gonna be ok.

Love you!
