Its been a while....

Sooo....whats up? It's been a little bit of a time since I last posted. Things have been pretty busy or I have been too drugged to comprehend what's been going on. Either way it's been good times! Let's recap!

Over Labor Day weekend Chris and I had our belated honeymoon. Chris kept calling it a vacation and I kept hitting him for it. I think he knows what it is now. Ha! We went to San Francisco and had an amazing time. It was so nice! Anytime we would leave a building I would worry that it was going to be hot and then I would remember where we were and that the sun didn't work the same in Califonia as is does in Arizona. There was something lovely about walking outside and having it be like 60 degrees. If California wasn't so stinkin expensive I might move there just for the weather. I have some lovely pictures to post but they have to be played with a little so I will leave those be for now.

Next! I cut my hair. As a present to myself before my surgery I got my hair cut. It was long and heavy and hot and I felt ugly. I seriously love my hair now. Its above my shoulders and has this lovely bounce to it and I don't have to do a stinkin thing to it and ITS AMAZING! Behold! New hair! Pay no attention to the look on my face. I don't know whats going on there.


And finally....DUN DUN DUN! My surgery! As you probably all know, I survived. I got released on Saturday (I could have had to stay till Sunday) and my doctor didn't give me any pain meds. I had some from my first surgery but I was in a lot of pain for the first couple days because I wanted to make sure that I had enough to cover me. I called them on Monday and waited for a call back. Tuesday Chris called. And then he called again. And then he called the third time and they said the persciption had just gotten signed and was on its way to the store. DARN RIGHT! By the time Chris was ready to go gorilla crazy on someone so it was probably in their best interest to give me the meds. Other than that nothing really is going on. I'm even more tired these days than I was before but I'm not sure how much of that is recovery and how much is hypothyroid at its worst. Only time will tell.

Here is my lovely new natural neckalce. It still hurts and I still have lots of trouble sleeping but its better than having the cancer still in there. I've found that I can swallow easier than before. I didn't realize I was having problems swallowing but now I have a much easier time. I find that kinda interesting. I don't know when radiation will happen but will keep everyone updated.

Oh and one last little happy news. Chris and I are going to be sealed for all time and eternity on October 16th in the Mesa Temple. We are so stinkin excited! We are taking out our Endowment on the 14th and can't wait for that either. It's going to be so awesome! I CAN'T WAIT!
