Where have I been you ask?! Well, here and there and everywhere! Lots of things have happened in the past 2 weeks of my life...so much so that I haven't even thought about posting a blog (gasp! I know!) so, I will fill you in :)
Brian and I left for our honeymoon in Disney on Saturday, September 20th. It was splendid. 7 full days of doing anything and everything that we wanted to do...when we wanted...if we wanted. Just to be able to spend that much time together was enough of a honeymoon for me! I didn't care what we did! Brian and I haven't really even spent that much time together in the past 6 months (maybe that's a little exageration!) but with him working nights and me working days, our time together is short! We arrived in lovely Orlando, Florida Saturday morning and went straight to our resort (Animal Kingdom Lodge) and boy, oh boy...those Disney people do not skip a beat on details! It's amazing...I really would like to be a fly on the wall when they are designing things...it's crazy the detail!!!
We met up with Adam, Holly, Bryson, Holly, and Chad at The Rainforest Cafe on Saturday night for dinner. How awesome to be able to see my family!!! We then spent Sunday with them and went around the Animal Kingdom park. We had great fun and as always, it's sad to say goodbye since the time spent is always quick and doesn't seem to be often enough.
For the rest of the week that we were there Brian and I swam with some dolphins (so cool!), toured all of the Disney theme parks, rode the rides that my motion-sickness body could handle, swam in the 80 degree pool, layed out in the 90 degree weather, ate awesome food, and just enjoyed each other's company. When Friday came and it was our last day, we were both so sad to see the week come to an end. While the trip is over, the memories will last a lifetime and I know that if we are lucky enough to get back there, it will be when we have kids and then we will have all of the great memories of our honeymoon when we go back. So, now it's just getting the 420 pictures developed that we took :)
So, we got back from Disney on Saturday night, the 27th. We spent that night just relaxing, doing laundry and hanging out with our kitty cats (who really did miss us while we were away!), Sunday was spent doing groceries and dreading the fact of returning back to work. Monday and Tuesday were spent getting caught up at work and then Tuesday night decided to throw us a little curve ball....
I went and ran some errands after work and was feeling a little pain in my stomach. I didn't really think anything of it besides the fact that I really had to pee and maybe my bladder was being stretched to its limit. So, I returned home a couple of hours later (after searching the town for the Sex and the City movie!) and finally got to use the bathroom! Hours later, my stomach was still bugging me and all of a sudden it went from uncomfortable to unbearable and Brian convinced me to let him take me to the ER. After several tests, it was confirmed that I had a golf-ball sized ovarian cyst and I was sent home with 3 different kinds of meds. Should be okay right? Hmmm...
Wednesday I woke up and felt worse than I did on Tuesday. I made an appointment with my girly doctor and honestly felt awful as my mom took me to the doctor (thank God for mom! This is one of those times you just need your mom!) Well, to make a long story short...I still have the cyst...they don't want to do anything too drastic right away since I did have one surgically removed 4 years ago and I am still young. So, I have been laying and sitting on the couch for the past couple of days and will return to work tomorrow.
I am hoping to get my energy back ASAP because I have some meetings to attend this week for my new endeavor...becoming a lia sophia advisor! I am motivated more than ever to start saving more money and I toyed with the idea of getting a second job, so I thought this would be a perfect choice! I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping it goes well!!!!
So, all you lovely readers (all 2 of you!), I am back and here...just sick and busy! tata for now!
Congratulations, Barb!
