Thursday January 20, 2011 - Well I am a little bummed because I was supposed to have my 6 month check up with my neurologist next week but they called and rescheduled me for another month out. I was anxious to get in and see what he has to say after my last eye appointment. I guess I will just have to be patient.
I have been feeling pretty good lately. I still have some random numbness is my left leg but it is not severe and does not last for too long. I think working and being out of the house has been a HUGE help. I have definitely noticed a difference in my mood.
I have not been taking my anxiety medication lately because it was giving me a headache everyday. I will see my primary doctor tomorrow to see if there is something else I can try.
I hope everyone is well. I know many of us including me have been suffering with allergies and I am hoping we are almost done with it. I am crossing my fingers that none of us ends up with the stomach bug that seems to be going around right now.
Stay warm and have a great weekend.

5 going on 13
Wednesday January 12, 2011 - My daughter is growing up too fast. This morning as I was brushing her hair she looked at me and asked "Are you wearing that to my school today?" I told her I was wearing the pants and long sleeve t-shirt I had on and she informed me that "It did not look right." I am really afraid of what comes when she is 13. Ugh!

Happy New Year!
Friday January 7, 2011 - I am a little behind on my posts but I have not really felt like posting until today. We had a very busy few weeks with the holidays, company, school functions and birthdays. Tomorrow is Emily's birthday party and after that I am hoping things will calm down a little.
Christmas was fun but came and went entirely too fast. The kids had a great Christmas and enjoyed some time off from school. I enjoyed the time off of work but was glad to get back. Emily had a good 5th birthday and got a new bike so her knees are not up to her ears when she is riding.
Right now we are suffering because of the cedar. I am hoping for some rain soon.
I have been feeling fine for the most part. I am still having some of the same leg and arm issues I have had for awhile but I just try to ignore them. I have my 6 month follow up with my neurologist in a couple of weeks and I am very curious to see what he has to say about my last appointment with my ophthalmologist. I will keep you posted.
Some exciting news that I have been waiting to share is that I will be working 5 days a week next school year. I will be teaching three days a week and an aide the other two. I am very excited to have a classroom and my own class. I am already starting to plan. I am so thankful to have this opportunity.
I hope everyone has a great weekend.

Back To School
Friday December 10, 2010 - Dylan was finally able to go back to school today. His fever finally broke yesterday. I guess we will be doing lots of school work this weekend. I am glad I don't have anything else to do this weekend. ;) (Ha don't I wish) I hope everyone has a great weekend and tries to enjoy the season.

6 Days and Counting
Wednesday December 8, 2010 - Dylan has been running a fever since Friday. It had been 103 until today and it dropped to 101. We have been to urgent care and the pediatrician. We have been told to wait a little longer both times. He does not really have any other symptoms beside the fever. If his fever does not break tomorrow we will be going back to the doctor on Friday for blood work. Dylan is going to have a ton of school work to make up after this week. Tomorrow will be the 4th day he will miss.
Everyone say a little prayer and keep your fingers crossed that his fever finally breaks tomorrow.

Bummed
Wednesday December 1, 2010 - I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. The kids are glad Thanksgiving is over so they can focus on Christmas.
Well, I went in for my annual eye exam and was due for the picture of my optic nerves. The good news is my vision has not changed in either eye. I can't remember the last time that happened from one year to the next. The bad news, or maybe not bad news, but news none the less is that there is a spot now on my left optic nerve. From my ophthalmologist's standpoint it means nothing but from my neurologist's it may. I am also now being watched carefully in my left eye for glaucoma. I am really young to develop glaucoma but my eye and optic nerve looks very suspicious. So for now we do nothing. I will see my neurologist next month and will go back for an exam with my opthamologist in March.
For now I can't worry about it. It is what it is and we deal with what is handed to us.
I hope everyone has a great rest of the week and stays warm.
