Heading South For The Winter!

Well, I'm not staying there all winter, but me and my mom and dad are going to Arizona to see my brother Jeff and my sister in law Lindsay and their children Tyler and Cameron. We leave on October 31st and come back to SLC on November 3rd. Kind of a short trip, but enough time to get to spend with them there. I am excited this will be the first time I get to see Cameron she was born just a couple of months ago. This will also be the first time I get to see Jeff and Lindsay's house there, I have never been to Arizona when they have lived there. I did go before when I was a kid. I hope we will have lots of fun, and also Cameron will be getting blessed into the church. It will also be lots of fun to go trick or treating with them on Halloween! I am just so excited. So I am still not better yet, still feel the same. My mom did treat me to a nice massage today, she is the best! I went to my doctor yesterday and she put me on this new medication that is supposed to help headaches, so I hope that it will. But my headaches are very different because I have them all the time, it doesn't ever go away. But we will see. Also, tomorrow I am going to get acupuncture. People have told me it has helped them, so I guess I'll try it, I'll try just about anything to get better so I can be a normal person and go back to work. Well hopefully I will get some awesome pictures from Arizona with all the family and then I will post them when I get back.

Life Goes On

Well, her is an update on everything in my life. First of all, I am about to become an old lady. My birthday is very soon, November 30th, and I will be turning 24. That just seems so old to me, for myself. The neurologist I went to is crazy, and he couldn't find anything wrong with me, and wouldn't help me or give me any meds, so I am going to try to get better the natural way. I have a great physical therapist who specializes in headaches, neck and back pain, so I am going to stick to a strict routine and hopefully I will get better soon, and keep exercising on my own. I did have to quit my job a few weeks ago, because the pain was so bad, I couldn't work. I didn't want to quit and I wanted to take a leave of absence, but I hadn't been working there that long, so they wouldn't let me. But I didn't leave on bad terms, and I have a chance they will rehire me, so in a few weeks if I am better which I hope, I will be headed back there to try and get my job back. I liked it there, the pay was good, and the benefits were really good. So I would like to go back. Also my brother, Jeff and sister in law Lindsay and their son Tyler welcomed and new baby into the world on August 28, 2008. Cameron Jennifer Brummer. I am so excited I get to go meet her soon. The end of October and beginning of November me and my mom and dad will be flying out to Arizona for Cameron's baby blessing. I am so excited, I have not been able to go to Arizona yet to see my whole family out there. It will be great to visit all of them and see their house and everything. I can't wait to see Jeff, Lindsay, Tyler, who is growing so fast, and Cameron, it will be nice to see her when she is still a little baby. Other than those things, last week I had four cavities filled on my left side, and I had one huge root canal done, they even had to do some tissue surgery. And I am still in pain!!!!!! I had to get all my work done before my insurance ran out at the end of the month. Now to go to physical therapy, I have to pay $400/ month to keep my insurance benfits through COBRA, to be able to go to the physical therapist at $30 per time. It is so expensive, but I have to do something to try and feel better, so I can get back to work. That is my ultimate goal. Anyway that is everything that is going on right now. I will write more as things come up.
