Hello fellow bloggers

Dang I'm really sucking at updating this every day! But I have an excuse, really, lol For the past 2 months or so, I've been throwing up at least once a day. The dr's can't figure out what's wrong with me so I've had the pleasure of having some wonderful tests run. The first was an ultra sound which was no big deal except they had to push on my abdomen so much, I have bruises all over my right side. That test didn't show anything conclusive one way or another.

Next was the HIDA scan which is were they inject radio active dye directly into my blood stream & watch how well my gall bladder empties. The first part lasted 90 minutes & I had to lay on a hard metal table with nothing to do except watch my liver take in all the dye, lol Then came the truly painful part where they injected me with more crap & forced my gall bladder to work. That was probably the longest 30 minutes of my life it hurt so bad.

Of course with my luck that test didn't show anything conclusive again. I'm really starting to hate that word, lol So now I have to have a EGD test with a biopsy & am waiting for the surgian to call me to schedule it. With that one they knock me out & put a scope down my throat & look everything inside. They will take cut small portions out so they can perform the biopsy. I have no idea what they will be cutting but it doesn't sound very pleasant.

I've also been busy with school & watching the kids. We are in the last week of the quarter for school so I only have a few more days left. I still have to finish up my final essays for family law & then I'm done! Well at least for this quarter anyways. The next one will start in one week so at least I get a small break in between. I try to spend the week off doing fun stuff with kids & catching up on housework. Madi & I are already planning on doing some serious scrapbooking. She has a mini album & we both need to do her birthday pix. I told her she has $10 to spend on whatever she wants at the scrapbooking store & she is so excited. It doesn't sound like much but honestly $10 will go really far there.

Alrighty I guess I need to start my day. There is no school today so I have a houseful & won't finish at 3pm like normal. That means I have to wait for Amanda to come get them & she better not go to the gym like she does every other day. I'm not paid for her to workout! Then at 2:30 I'm going to be watching my friend Shanna's kids. She has a 5, 4 & 2 month, all girls & I will only be watching them a few hours. Just until their dad gets off work. I'll probably finish around 6pm and then it will be a quick dinner & head off to another dr's appointment at 7pm. After that I need to meet Amanda at Walmart to cash my check so a very busy day for me.
