Apologies....

My apologies for being such a sucky blogger lately!  It's just been a crazy few weeks, and I feel like I am just starting to get my head above water again!!!!

I have so many stories and pictures to share. The school year ended and it was a wild ride last week!  We had Field Day, end of year pizza parties, roller skating parties, Brownie trips, sleepovers, pool parties, and all the events that encompass the last days of school! 

On top of it all...... I had a little trip to the ER last Monday.  I am fine, fine, fine for those of you freaking out. But I, myself, totally freaked out.  I was sitting at my desk early Monday morning.... when I had a funny feeling come over me... and then out of no where - BAM - horrid headache. I thought something was really wrong.... but after a zillion tests, CTs and an angiogram later... the "migraine cocktail" worked and I did, in fact, have a migraine headache.

I had migraines in college... but none ever came out of nowhere like this.  Fine one moment, in HORRID pain the next. They would build up and become unbearable. Not come on in seconds. So, that ever so slightly freaked me out. I was so glad all it was, was a migraine.

Then... I was bummed that they could be back again.  The entire week, I felt off.  I remained in a nauseated state for a week.  Today is the FIRST day I feel normal. Thank God. Seriously......

I promise to upload all the adorable pics I have and share stories of happiness from the past two weeks cuz there are many........ but work beckons........... to be continued...........

Oh Nina...I'm so sorry...did you say you had an angiogram??? Where they cut your thigh and went to the brain with a camera??? That's waht's making you feel "off". Make sure your doctors know about my venous angioma...although I never had any pain with it....I love you, Mom

Hey Nicki....glad to hear you are doing alright. How scary! Just rediscovered your blog (now that school's over and I have a chance to read something besides textbooks!) and have been catching up with Ally and Luke and their wonderful parents! Hope we'll be able to get together soon. xoxo Love, Ger
