Vacation: Day Two and Three

On Wednesday we met some friends in downtown Denver for an early dinner and Headless Dad spied this picture.

Thursday we spent in Longmont visiting friends, and the kids got to do this:
(these friends deserve a whole post of their own, unfortunately we are expecting a houseful of guests in about 45 min. so I can't right now. Love you guys!!)

It's really too bad that we're not having any fun, ya know?

Vacation: Day One

This is my bliss.

I'm in the throws of finishing laundry, finishing packing, deciding what to wear on the airplane, making sure I have everything. Ha! It's certain that I'll forget something.

Next time you hear from me I'll be more than a mile high! See you soon!

The Firstfruits

⁹Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

I've Never...

• been to Europe, (save England twice.)
• been to Canada.
• jumped out of or off of anything. Nor will I ever.
• eaten sushi. Won't do this, either.
  
• been to Mt. Rushmore-but this should be taken care of in a couple of weeks.
• lived in the desert.
• read the Twilight series.
• worked in an office.
• seen or read Gone With The Wind.
• spent more than 2 nights away from my kids-in 9 1/2 years! (See? and you people keep wondering why I'm headless?!)
• climbed a fourteener.

Shamelessly swiped (and edited to be my own) from Mom to the Screaming Masses and Busy Mom. Write your own list and I'll come visit!

Update

I can't thank you all enough for the prayers and good wishes on Thursday. I really felt all of them.

The radiologist was there and read the mammo and ultrasound as soon as they were taken. They couldn't find anything. Really. Nothing. Nada.

I praise God for that; He deserves the glory.

The weird thing, though, is that I am still having some pain. Huh.

Anyway, I'll be able to call my doctor's office on Monday when they receive the results. Hopefully they will have more answers for me, because "nothing" isn't exactly what I was expecting.

Thanks again. All of you. Really.

This is why I'm proud to be a part of this community.

The Short Of It

Today I'm on my way to have a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound.

I've had some breast pain, and they found a lump. My doctor said that she thinks that it's a cyst.

Don't know much more but I'll keep you posted.

Trying not to freak out when it will be nothing. (HD is kinda freaking out, but don't tell him I told you.)

I'm going to make a point of being away from the computer most of the day.

I didn't know whether to talk about it here or not, but here I am anyway.

Just thought you should know.
