Sorry it has been Forever!!!

Let's see... I guess we could look at it this way, since I haven't written in a while things have been going better.  I have been off of my medication for a few months now, which has been extremely nice, but alas, my headaches and a few other symptoms have come back starting this past Monday.  I have emailed the doctors and they have not gotten back to me, which is highly unusual because the doctors at OHSU are usually right on top of things.  

Let's catch up shall we??!!  Well, it is obviously Spring because just about everyone I know (ok like 5 people that I know) are getting married soon... They are just recently engaged.  So fun because I love weddings... My friend and I were talking today and we figured that it is some kind of a virus and we accidentally got the vaccine... :)  I am very excited about that.  This past weekend, my mom drove me up to Seattle, because I can't drive that far on my own because of my recent headaches and my mom is such a doll!  I drove from Gig Harbor to Seattle at night and found this to be a pretty awful decision... because of my head problems, I had a bit of a rough time trying to stay on the road in between my lines... Not exactly the best thing when you are driving!!!  I made it safely and had a blast with my friends for the weekend!  It was so amazing!!   They are a group of girls from Nashville, as well as my friend Natalie from here, who love Jesus, love each other and want to live that out in community which I am so about.  I am going to go out to Nashville for a few months at the end of the summer and I am so excited to see what God will bring out of that.  I am also helping Lisa Closner with the play Annie by choreographing!  It is very fun and stressful and scary as we are nearing opening in a little over two weeks....

Back to my head, I am trying to work as much as possible, but some days I just give up, today was great though.  I have a doctor appointment on the 21st so they will run more tests do some blood work and see if I will go back on meds or have to have surgery, which could be great if it goes as planned! :)  Thank you all for your prayers and support!  I love you tons... but for now I am off to bed... I am getting up at 6:45 am to go walking with my mom!! Muahhh!!!
