Dr

Well, I'm glad I saw the resident - she was very nice and I felt like she actually listened to what I had to say. That being said we did some medication adjustments and are redoing the x-rays and ultrasounds. She asked me to keep the appt on the 15th and we'll see what progress we've made. It feels ridiculous to say but I actually feel hopefuly for the first time in awhile (and yes, I did pick up the antidepressants but no I haven't taken any yet so we can't blame the upswing in my mood on drugs).
Blade sent the sweetest email ever, I almost cried in my office. Then Mom showed up with flowers for me. It had no choice but to be a good day.
Now, I switched on the computer to do my little update and got to see Betty's updates on her blog, Get to the Point, and it had the best photo of her husband Jay and her son Reece. It reminded me of playing in the snow with Jacob and Alex when they were younger. It also made me think of a snowman built many years ago with a fellow Pirate Queen in the front yard of a place she was renting while we were in university. I didn't think it was possible to have so much fun while suffering from frostbite :)
Today was one of those days where I was reminded that while there are always pitfalls, I'm really very blessed to have such a great family and friends. You guys are the best.
