Its been a while since I’ve posted the happenings of my life so I thought I’d give some updates on a few things.
Update #1: My new furniture came in a little over a week ago and I LOVE it! Its even nicer and prettier than I thought. Now just about everything in my house matches except for the large, ugly rug in the dining room area. But, since large rugs cost large amounts of money, I’ll just have to deal with it for now. Here are a few pictures to show you. It looks better in person so you will all need to stop by and see it.
Update #2: My periodontist appointment didnt give me many answers. They told me that my teeth are farther up into my sinuses than most people so the pain and inflammation may be related to that, but they can not be sure. They took some more x-rays and told me that they saw something in my sinuses but could not be sure if it was another tumor forming or if I was just congested. They want me to see another specialist to find out for sure. Since I feel that I already have more specialist than anyone my age should have, and since I did have the beginning of a cold coming on, I decided to postpone another doctors appointment and am just praying that its not a new tumor. On the plus side though, they did tell me that the bone loss is not as bad as previously thought so I will not have to have my teeth removed just yet as long as I keep taking good care of them.
Update #3: I’ve been really bad at working out! I’m trying to get motivated and lose 10lbs by Thanksgiving. That may be a bit of a lofty goal but I’m going to give it a go. So, starting today (Monday Oct 27) I am going to walk 2 miles (or more) and do at least a 20 minute pilates video every day. It should take me an hour or less each day so I really don’t have any excuse to not do it. If it is raining than I plan on doing the hour long pilates video that I have. I will need everyones help to keep on it. So please, if you have facebook or email, keep on me and make sure that I have done my daily workout. I am known as being a bit of a slacker and procrastinator so you have my permission to be as blunt and pushy as need be to make sure that I am still going strong 
Update #4: Adam and I hit a set back on the whole baby front and have had to postpone treatments for a few months. I don’t really want to discuss the set back at this point but please continue to pray for us. Due to the situation though Dr. Ratts has decided to wait until December or January to start any for of treatment. I know she knows whats best for my body but its still frustrating. It just seems like everytime I get ready to begin treatments something happens and we are set back another few months. On the plus side of the situation (yes, I said plus side! I am a little more optimistic these days) whatever happens will not interfer with school. I graduate in May and should take my boards no later than July so if we are blessed with success soon than it wont be a problem. On the down side (I can’t help but have a little pessimissm still) I’ve not had any treatments since May and my body is starting to fight against me. I was almost regular with my cycles lasting between 30-33 days, but the last few months they have went from 33 days being the longest to 43 being my new high and they are just growing in the length between. The longer I go between cycles the worse that means my hormones are reacting and the longer its going to take to get back to point A. Which is another reason I want to lose 10lbs by Thanksgiving. Im hoping that if I am at my optimal weight and in good shape physically that my body will thank me for it and I will have an easier time getting going again.
Thanks for all of your prayers and for the motivation that I know you are all going to give me the next month! Now I need to hit the road and begin day one of my workout plan!!
