Wow, January came and went...and its already the second week of February....life flies by when you are having fun! This month brings a lot of fun things for us! We have the Superbowl tomorrow (I dont care about the teams, just the yummy food!) Valentines Day...the one day that Matt and I can really splurge on dinner and go out and have a good time...then we have Kendyl's birthday! I cant believe she will be one year old this month!
As far as the Superbowl goes, we havent really done anything in the past because we both usually had to work at Outback. Well, now that I am not working at Outback anymore, I have weekends off. I told Matt to request it off this year so we could actually do something. It worked out because Holly and Mike invited us over to watch the game and eat yummy yummy food! I am so excited! I made a big batch of pasta salad, and turtle brownies :) I am also making a chili cream cheese dip, and a salsa cream cheese dip. I could really care less about the Steelers or the Packers, so I am just excited to hang out with good company and enjoy the food. I told Matt I would drive so he wouldnt have to worry :)
For Valentines Day this year Matt is taking me to The Keg. Its usually a tradition for us to go all out and spend money on dinner for our birthdays, anniversary, and Valentines Day. We love to dress up and go out and enjoy each other.. our time together is very few and far between with both of us being back in school and working full time. I cant wait to be able to spend the night with my love! Plus roses are usually in the agenda and he knows how much I love those ;)
Kendyl's first birthday party is coming up too! I am soooooo glad that I dont have school on that Saturday because I cannot miss anymore days until we graduate! If I do miss any days, then everything that I have worked for goes out the window! So even if I am puking my guts out, I have to drag a trash can around and show up to class! I know its so going to be worth it in the end because I will have more certificates to add to my teaching degree. I cant wait to spend the day celebrating little Miss Kendyl and hanging out with our family.
Work has been going really well, I was just saying to one of my co-workers last week that I have not called out sick once this year! (knock on wood!) that is a far cry from last year, although I never called out last year until the end of the year when I got really sick with the strep and the mono.Hopefully this year does not end up that way!
My health has been great too, I do have a small sinus infection right now that I have been fighting the past two weeks, it started as a cold, but turned into this yucky thing! I realized it today when my head was throbbing every time I moved it, and it was worse when I would bend down or cough...weird but its totally the pressure right above my eyes and under my eyes, so I knew that was my sinuses. As far as all of the thyroid stuff, I went to my endocrineologist back in January and everything seems to be going ok...Just have to get an ultra sound in April to make sure everything is OK, and then more blood tests to make sure evreything is negative. I do still have the vitamin D and calcium deficiancy so hopefully that goes away over time too.. I am so sick of taking 4 pills every morning. I knew I would be taking the one thyroid pill everyday for the rest of my life, but I was not prepared for 4...things should be improved by now...speaking of medicines and thyroids, my surgeon was totally in Matt's Outback last night! haha Matt ran his food I guess and they talked about me :) So funny for him to see Matt there...I am sure it was weird for Dr. Leff too.
Well, that is really all I have for now! I am just so blessed to be living a happy healthy life, and cant believe that when April gets here, that will mark a year when all of this really started with the strep! I really do love where I am at right now, and cant wait for what the year will bring Matt and I.
Have a Happy February!
Love, Em
