Hi everyone! Welcome. This is my first post on my first blog! I am a blog virgin so to speak.

I am going to use this blog to share about life, love, dreams, and realities. There is so much in my past that is affecting my present and future so as I work through that I will be sharing those struggles, the moments of clarity that come as a result, the pain, and the hope. I hope that you will come along for the ride!

So--let's start with today. Today was an okay day...on and off. Isn't that how it always is? Started out good...with my mom calling to tell me that Connor came up to her saying "I pooped". It kept a smile on my face and kept me from worrying about the surgery I was supposed to have today. Yeah..I said supposed. I got to the docs office to have a cyst removed from the back of my head/neck and he decided that it wasn't a cyst---it was a lymph node. After giving me a nice massage---well I am sure that it wasn't supposed to be that but he was feeling around the back of my head, neck, and shoulders to feel for more anomalies---he went and asked another doc about what he should do. Apparently they both concurred and decided that the lymph being enlarged and painful is a result of my stupid immunological disorder. So sick of this. Meds, shots, and now this? I really wanted to beg him to take it out...just to have something done!! Oh well. Such is life. I did make an appt with the immunological doc for Saturday. HAPPY WEEKEND! WHOO HOO! LOL.

Well....that was the big thing of the day. Rest was kids, swim lessons, dinner, and a nice family walk. Oh...and did I mention that I hurt my hand/wrist. James things that I sprained it or something. A few days ago I hurt it and had a nice size welt right below my wrist (on my hand)....but my pointer and middle fingers are hurting now and it is quite swollen and hard to grasp things. Oh joy! LOL. I wish it was NOT my primary hand.

Tomorrow is Connors big birthday---2nd! WHOO HOO! I can't believe that he is 2! I would say he is a big boy...but he isn't! He can still wear some 6-12 month pants!

Anyway--rambling! Welcome to my first post! I hope you come along for the ride!
