Rainy Thursday

So, I started typing this last week with the intention of adding pictures that day, and well that never happened, but I'm posting anyways! :)

************************************************************************************

It's rainy outside and I really don't want to be at work! I think it'd be a great day to be in front of a fire with a good book instead of stuck in an office with 4 walls and no windows. So, I decided to update my blog instead! :)



These past few weeks have been sooo busy! One of my best friends got married this past weekend (Congrats Ashley!!). So, we had the bachelorette party 2 weekends ago and the bridesmaid/honor attendant (me) luncheon and the rehearsal dinner Friday night and the Wedding Saturday at 3. It was really sweet and the reception was a ton of fun! I've got a video up of some friends doing karaoke to Ice Ice Baby at the reception on facebook. It's hilarious! We had a great time Saturday and couldn't be happier for the newlyweds! I'll post a few pictures from Saturday soon.



My sister in law is getting closer to her due date! I can't wait to see baby Sarah Kate! I'm just hoping and praying that I'll be here for her birth. I leave to go to Arkansas with Brad for Thanksgiving on November 25 and Melissa's due date is that week. I really don't want to miss the birth of my precious neice.



We'll be in Arkansas with Brad's family from Tuesday night thru Sunday. I'm really looking forward to the trip and getting to meet the rest of his family. I met his mom about a month and a half ago. It's going to be a fun trip - hanging out at the farm and river, hunting (duck and deer), duck calling contest. Yep, I'm turning into a country girl! AHH how'd that happen?!? haha!



Hope you all have a great day! I better get some work done around here. "Navel White" doesn't pay me the big bucks to do nothing! haha!

One of those days

Do you ever have those days where no matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to get in a better mood? Well I've been like that all day (and the same on Monday). Maybe it's just because I am extremely tired, mayeb it's because I woke up late, got behind a school bus on the way to work, didn't have breakfast when I got to work, but whatever it is, I need to snap out of it. I just don't feel like myself. (Since I have to be at work..) I just want to stay in my office with the door shut and not talk to anyone. What's going on?? I think I'm going to sleep in in the morning and come in late. Maybe that will help - we'll see!

Life and Love

Alright, so I've been a slacker lately! (or majorly preoccupied...) But some friends said "I noticed you haven't blogged in a while..." so here I am!

The last time I blogged was over a month ago and man, has my world been turned upside down since then....

I got the test results back obviously and everything has been just fine since then. I've been to countless bridal and baby showers, birthday parties, concerts, the fair...and just been extremely busy every weekend. And, oh yeah - I met Brad Neill, my future husband!!!

Ok, so that probably sounds crazy to some, but we both knew after the first day we met that we were created for each other. Our parents are in full agreement too - which is another reassurance. We met on September 13 and have been pretty inseperable since then. He is absolutely an answer to prayers. He's everything I always wanted and never knew I needed in a guy. It's really crazy. I have absolutely never felt the way I do with him. I'll post pictures soon, but most everyone who reads this has already met him, heard about him or seen pictures of him.

Well, just wanted to post real quick. I need to get back to work. I've got to go to a Bachelorette weekend in Charleston this weekend, so I won't be at church again this Sunday. I'm really bummed, but I'll be back next week for sure! I miss my NCCd family!

The results are really in!

I called the doctor around 1:00 today and they said that the biopsies came back as low grade! I am so relieved :) They're going to do an acid treatment (which won't hurt at all) next Tuesday and then everything should be fine. Thanks for all the prayers!

Test results...kinda

Well, I had my colposcopy yesterday and believe it or not, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. I won't go into detail but the doctor did find two suspicious spots on my cervix and took biopsies (he numbed the area first, so i didn't even feel it! I'm so thankful for that!) He said that the results should be back by next Tuesday. So, now it's just a waiting game. I asked him before hand what the lesions could be and he said "oh, precancerous" like it was no big deal. I don't even want to hear that word! So, depending on the grade (low or high grade) of the lesions determines the treatment options. If it's low grade, he'll treat it with an acid but if it's high grade, he'll do this procedure called a LEEP where basically they just use this laser and remove the part of your cervix that has the lesions. And from what I read, the cells regenerate and grow back and shouldn't cause any complications or infertility in the future. So, I feel much better about everything, just very anxious and apprehensive to get the results back. I just want to put this all behind me and move on. I'm not in any pain from it now and haven't been, so that's a definite praise! I'm so thankful that God is in control and I don't have to worry about all this. I'm starting to get a bit of peace about it but it's still a little nerve racking just to wait...

GO EAGLES!!!!

I LOVE FOOTBALL SEASON!!

Congrats to GSU for their first win this season!

GSU - 34 vs. Austin Peay - 20

I'm so ready to go to a game!

What's going on??

I finally got my results back from my last pap smear today. About 2 weeks ago I had to have a follow up pap because it was abnormal 6 months ago. Well, it came back abnormal again. The nurse said that they found atypical cells and lesions on my cervix. They want to do a colposcopy next week. I've never had this done, so I'm a bit anxious about it. Here's a website I found that tells more about it if you're interested in knowing more about the procedure. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/colposcopy/WO00097. Maybe it is, and maybe it's not related to my endometriosis, but geez! I thought everything was fine! I just have to keep reminding myself that God is in control and he is sovereign over this, whatever the outcome is. Just please pray that it's not anything and is only atypical cells - not precancerous. If anyone else has had this procedure, please give me a heads up as to what to expect and why they're doing it. If it was just atypical cells, I don't think they'd do another procedure til my next pap smear like they did this time. I'm a bit freaked out by it all today...
