busy week ahead

Monday is my birthday, YAY! I'm just excited to get Jared's homemade birthday cake. Last year, he make a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting. This year, he told me he wanted to change the frosting, and I objected. It was really good last year! BUT! He wants to make it chocolate peanut butter frosting. So I told him that's okay. hehe

I had an MRI on Wednesday for my right arm. It was...uncomfortable. The tech was surprised that I actually remained still for the half hour. But that was what I was told to do. So I did. Apparently, other people have a harder time forcing themselves not to scratch their nose. Before the MIR, I had to sign a release form. On one of the pages, you had to list any surgeries you've had. This isn't the first time in the last few months where I've had to state any previous surgeries. I've never had any. And each time the people are like, "You've NEVER had any surgeries?!" Is it that rare for someone to live their first 25 years without any surgeries?? Each time, I tell them I did have my wisdom teeth out, but they say that it doesn't really count. Maybe I'm just an abnormally clumsy person, who manages not to do any real damage?

Anyways, I could end up having surgery on my wrist depending on what the MRI shows. Then I'll never have to go through the same "You've NEVER had any surgeries?!" discussion. Although, I hope it's an *easy* fix. Probably not likely... I go back to the doctor on Tuesday, so I guess I just have to wait a little more to find out.

Wednesday, Jared and I sign the lease for the apartment. Woo! Jared's moving in most of his stuff Wednesday, but I have to wait til the weekend. Our bed (the mattress and free frame really, we have to wait a few weeks for the actual bed) arrives Saturday, so Saturday night will be the first night there. Sunday we should be moving big stuff from my house, like the sofa and bureau. My sister has a rather large SUV, so I'm hoping every thing will fit fine. I just feel really useless. I can't carry a lot of weight in my arms or anything at an awkward angle. I mean, I can do it. I'll just be in a lot more pain for about a month til it decreases back to its usual pain. But both Jared and my mom have told me no. So, I may have to enlist other people's arms. I guess the rest of their bodies can come too.

My left elbow has been painful again. I think its re-inflamed. Boo. That trumps any pain my right wrist throws at me because it affects my entire arm. It's really...not pleasant. I wish I could have one of those ultrasound machines from the therapy place. That always made it feel much better. However, I don't think they let random people buy one. And if they do, it is probably super expensive. I'll add it to the "if I'm ever a billionaire" wish list.

There really is a lot to do, with packing and all. But at the moment, I just want to relax!
