All is well







Thank you to everyone for the happy thoughts, and prayers. I am thrilled to say I didnt need to stop the procedure due to a panic attack :) I seriously get a bit nutty with the odd noises and sensations from an MRI. I am pretty strong normally , so it is wierd..but there it is. I have an appt the 29th to talk with my Dr. I think all is fine. He wants me to have a procedure to move my spine back into alignment to help with the pain and I am against it :)






Wow. ONE DAY until Christmas eve! HAAA!! Looked at the clock & It is 12:06 am , so



MERRY CHRISTMAS EVE !!!! Gosh this went fast no? We are ready, except for wrapping (small details) but everything is done , no last minute craziness just enjoying our families, my beautiful kiddos and remembering the birth of Jesus Christ. Awesome.

Had our conference call with Emily our sw from our agency tonite. It was good. I learned a few news things and was reminded of others. I think it is great that they prepare parents for the good and bad.

Off to bake some cookies and Biscotti for the neighbors :)
