Registration

Well I finally got to register for my Winter classes. I have to say that this is not the schedule that I wanted but I will deal with the changes with a smile on my face. Like my Grandma always is saying..."Things happen for a reason!" Yes, Yes, Yes I get it. I figure I am not healthy enough (shoulder and arm wise) to take ASL this quarter so instead I am taking Psyc 100 and IT 100. April informed me that I should do great in these classes and that makes me feel better because she has taken a couple of these courses already. Oh I am also in the Biology class that is a prerequisite that I need. Jake and I got to spend way too much time together this Thanksgiving week because he ended up rained out. LOL it was fun and we got to hang out with many of our favorite peep, but three days and three movies was a little too much for me. I got our Christmas cards done and a few of them delivered. I feel so great that my last Chemistry test wasn't as hard as I had been fearing and I am now sitting at a B in that class. YAY. I have been so worried that I wouldn't pass Chemistry that my brain has been on fire.

Thanksgiving

So I am at my house (well Buffalo's) and I am finishing up all my work for next week and hello, I honestly can not believe how fast this year has flown. I have a Chemistry Exam on Monday and an Essay for English due on Tuesday and then I am off for 5 days. I am super lucky to get to spent those days off with Jake. This time around has been so much better than I could imagine. I hope to maybe hit a single store for Black Friday, but not sure if I will be standing out there all by myself or not lol. I am very thankful for my family and friends. There are days when feel like giving up and I happen to hear from one of them and I am instantly better. not sure if I would ever have made it this far without them. I ordered Christmas cards and can not wait for them to get here!!! lol they are pretty darn cute if I do say so myself :-) Well now for the new scary part of life. I have to see a shrink to be released for my surgery before I can be approved. I know this is a good thing and I have to do this, but the timing is not very good. I am worried I will miss a final the day this shrink visit is scheduled. We will have fingers crossed and hope all works out for a reason.

I looked into my claim and all seemed to be at a stale mate. Later on tonight I decided to check it again, but this time there is something different. I call was placed to get me approved to go see the surgeon, not sure if I have been approved yet but at least they are looking into it. I am so very nervous about this new part of my life. I fear the unknown, but also know that it all happens for a reason. Well so Grandma likes to remind me! :-) I know deep down that all thing will be okay, but a surgery is never an easy choice. I don't want to be full of sadness, but a ray of hope to others that feel like their lives are not going at the right pace. Things will change as long as you keep your chin held high and a prayer in your soul. This is my motto and I do aim for it every day. I will admit that there are still days when all I want to do is break down into a heaping pile of angry tears. I am so very lucky to have the friends and family that I use to think were cures, without them I would not have made it this far or felt this good about the choices I have been making.

Surgery

Well after a long day in the car with Grandma we have a few answers and many more questions. My Dr, Dr French, says that more physical therapy isn't going to do a "damn bit of good!" After all I have had a "shit ton of physical therapy" and my problem still prosiest. So a federal was sent on to a surgeon in Seattle. Now I get to wait for L&I to either accept this or deny it. The waiting game is the worse part. Now I will have to postpone my major until next year because with me missing school for surgery there is no way I will have my biology classes done in time. Like my Grandma tells me, everything happens for a reason and maybe I can double major while I'm killing Time lol. Here's to hoping I'm on the right track!
