It's a...Stone!

I finally got rid of this little 7mm monster. The doctor went in yesterday and blasted it, but only gave me a small part, taking the rest to have it tested. It turns out it hadn't moved since my CT scan last week, and was lodged in the ureter, so it wouldn't have passed on it's own anyway.
The stupid little stone...haha
I'm glad to be done with this, I just can't wait until they take out the stent in a week. I'm still on pain medication and a couple others for the uncomfortable-ness (if that's even a word, which I'm pretty sure it's not) and of having to go to the bathroom every 10-15 minutes. I'm also glad I have the family I do that puts up with it while watching season finales that are intense. Ha and I'm thankful for my dad and mom who now drive me to and from appointments and work like I'm twelve. ha I love them both. I'm super excited to be back to normal (it's all relative..haha) and able to be active again in a week. Just in time for Carrie Underwood!


PS Sherry I'm registered at Target..haha

Happy Birthday Mom!

Mommy,

Happy Not 50th Birthday! Thank you for the many back rubs and letting me sleep on your shoulder. Thank you for putting up with me through junior high and high school, and letting me come crash your house during the summer. I lucked out getting you for a mom, I love you!

Going Away Bonfire

Some of my friends from work and I decided to have a bonfire (campfire) last week before I left with smores and singing. It was lots of fun, mostly just to catch up with some of the people I hadn't seen in a while. I worked with some of them for six months and we got to know each other pretty well, whether they wanted to or not. It was a fun night and a great way to say goodbye until the fall.

Amanda, my awesome singing partner and fellow House lover.
Jake, who found out all my coolest secrets and made me look bad in front of my boss. haha
Amanda, I don't know how we got ANY work done when we sat together. Constant laughter.
Ash, who is crazy fun and totally random. haha
