Congrats, Omak!!!
My good newses are 1) I am having surgery tomorrow and 2) I just got offered a new job today!!! The last few years at my company have been so rough. We got torn apart and then acquired and then torn apart again in the reshuffling. I hadnt left from loyalty to my small group in the company. They are a great group of people, and I love my boss. But the restructuring with the acquisition meant our jobs as we knew them just were not going to be there. It took me a long time to be willing to leave and to deal with the guilt/loyalty. But I am really happy with where I am going. So with any hope I will have shiny new insides and a new job soon!!!

Wow, two big changes! When do you start???
As for your lap, you know all of us wish you nothing but the best. I hope you wake up feeling better than you did going in. Can you reach out to someone and let us know how you're doing? I worry about you, but have no doubt you'll be in good hands. Lots of love!

Congrats, Jenaya! And just think - if you accept it - you'll be within driving distance!  I dated a guy briefly years ago that was in the DO program there - I know he loved it. |

I had energy today!!! I have days like this every now and then and I try to get a lot done and end up crashing. Today, I was super productive at work - got one of two projects up and running. I made dinner, did the laundry, put clothes away, cleaned up the kitchen, did dishes, and still have a bit of energy left! Doesn't sound like much, but those are the things that I drop the ball on when I'm not feeling so great.
I'm making a list of things to do tomorrow and hope I wake up with enough energy to complete them... If history serves, I'll be drained tomorrow, but I'll still cross my fingers.

Aw it's so good to hear that you had energy! I remember when you were always like that when I met you. It makes me sad to see you struggle. I hope you wake up tomorrow and kick ass again!

I didn't get so much done yesterday, but I still managed to get out and see a movie (Argo - it was incredible, though probably not the best for my adrenals as I was on the edge of my seat the whole time!) with a friend and have a drink after. I haven't impulsively arranged plans like that in a while. Woo hooo! But... today, I'm crossing things off my list one by one and I haven't had that energy-zapping feeling come over me just yet. YAY!!!! It may still come, but at least I've got a sense of accomplishment. Is it sad that I'm excited about doing the mundane things in my life?? |

That's wonderful, Karen. Mundane things become the most important when you have struggled to do them. It's the experience of being normal, and that's really nice.
