So I had a bad 2 days

Using a wonderful adjective from Anne, I would like to say that this week has pretty much been CRAPTASTIC!!! Why you may ask. If you don't ask why, then stop reading because I am going to elaborate on my week, if I can remember it all.
Monday...... well, I had to go back to work/school after 2 weeks of being with Hunter all the time. Lucky for me and him, it was only a half day and I had him in my arms by 11:30. We were then off to my thyroid doctor, Dr. Moffitt. I had to get an ultrasound of my thyroid to recheck a nodule. I was done early with that and was going to have to wait quite a while for my appt. with Dr. Moffitt himself. Luckily, they were able to fit me in. I was in and out 30 minutes before my scheduled appt. time. Unluckily (making up a word here), the nodule has gotten a little bigger and he wanted to perform a biopsy of it. I was not quite sure what this procedure would entail, but he could do it right then and in the office. The biopsy involved a skinny needle being stuck in my neck reaching the nodule and aspirating fluid from it. This was done a total of 3 times. Those of you that know my wimpiness, know I must have been freaking out. NO not at all. I didn't have time to be nervous. It was a weird feeling having it done, but didn't really hurt. I guess having a baby toughened me up a little. I haven't gotten the results back but I am not worried. The worst thing that happens is that I have my thyroid removed and I know a few people that have had it done. It is a relatively simple procedure. I like that Dr. Moffitt is proactive. My thyroid level was very elevated and I have gained weight (more than one should in a short amount of time) so we are hoping that increasing my dosage will help things out. I go back in 8 weeks. I will keep you posted.
Tuesday.........oh Tuesday. It began with the skies opening up and making us all wonder if we needed to build an ark. I had gotten mud on my pants while taking Hunter into the sitters. I get to school and get my school bag out of the floor board of the rental and it is soaking wet. There was a puddle of water from an apparent backup in one of the vents on the passenger side. I made a call to the rental place and let them know what was going on. They said I could trade it in for another that afternoon. I got something else on my pants and had to have someone bring me another pair. Meanwhile it is still pouring rain which meant my kitchen roof was leaking. I had been on the phone with the insurance company discussing my recent fender bender with the ..... now we know........... 19 year old, cell phone yapping, not her car, no insurance, and a revoked license chick. I have to shell out all the deductibles, etc. BEFORE my insurance goes after her. I am seriously thinking of calling Fox and Farmer and sueing her........... They don't get paid until I get paid : )
After switching out rental cars, Mom and I went to BabysRUs and then to get the 2nd crown. This one took a little bit longer and kind of hurt but it is done now. Oh yeah, insurance isn't going to cover all that so there is some more money I have to come up with. As my friend Yvette and I say, "Let me crap that one out".
Wednesday and Today have been better. I don't recall anything really bad going on. Or even semi bad for that matter. And you know as all of those events were unraveling, I am thinking --- there are people out there that have it alot worse than me. I managed to find humor in as much of it as I could to keep from crying.
I kept making myself remember.................I am blessed to have a wonderful son whom I absolutely adore and when he looks at me, all my worries go away. I have an awesome boyfriend who loves me for me and is an incredible dad to Hunter and his sisters. I have a family that will move mountains for me. I have a roof over my head, although that roof leaks.
I think that most of America has been affected by our less than stellar economy, not just me. I keep reminding myself that and when I forget, Jerry is my voice of reason and refuses to let me dwell on things I cannot change. That is one of the qualities I love about him. We all have our troubles and worries, even him.

So when life gets you down, its only one day. There is always tomorrow, although it may suck too. Just keep plugging along.
Remember......................"That whichdoes not kill us, makes us stronger. "
