I just want back in your head...
Its been awhile. Lots is and has been changing.
I'm deathly ill at the moment... so I figured while I am sitting here not suppose to move, I should update you kids on my life.
I just got home from the Navy Hospital. First time there. Not super fun, I relate it a lot to being at the DMV, but hey they gave me medicine and it was free so it all worked out. I have tonsilitis and possibley strep on top of that. My voice, or lack there of, is pretty hideous to listen to, and my chest feels like it is going to explode at anytime. The worst part of all of this is that it is Matt's first week home and we spent it lying in bed, and NOT in the way either of us had intended :) It was more like me sleeping the whole time, and him rubbing my back, getting me medicine, blankets and 7-up. He has been utterly amazing the whole time, even though I know in my heart he is a little bummed out that my body decided to crash, only days after his arrival. I've never known anyone, even my parents, to be so attentive and stay by my side, just in case I needed anything, when I am so sick. I've always had to deal alone, because no one wants to catch anything, so this was a new Husband, Wife experience, that turned out extrememly positive. It made me see how amazing Matt is. It reminded me how much I needed him while he was gone, and it definately made me reconnect to him after so long of being apart. I suppose it was a blessing in disguise, though now that he is back at work, I wouldn't mind being able to breathe again. It is nowhere near as fun being home sick alone.
Tax season is in full effect. Luckily, this year, I have decided to take the semster off (instead of letting my grades suffer) and working a normal day. So I should at least be home at a decent our most of the time, which means more friend/husband time. And I plan on taking advantage of that. This sickness really needs to go away though, because I am not sure how much longer Summit can survive without me. Not only am I out this week, BUT next Friday I am having surgery to remove my gallbladder, which I have been waiting for for 6 months. I swear I am practically living in the hospital. One day I think I will just set my immune system on fire... because really, it couldn't get worse.
I miss all my friends... I sorta feel like my life is getting back on track, but I do feel like others are taking huge detours and sharp left turns. Hooley's was so fun for those that came. I really had an amazing time. It was one of the few times my brother attended an event, and I finally feel like him and Matt are connecting and I can really see our family growing. They have struggled in the past, but I really do feel like things are coming together. Those that couldn't make it, we need to plan something else, so we can all be together again. I do feel like a lot of times, Matt acts like the glue with our group, and I have been hoping his re-existance, would bring us all back together. I know he wants to, and even though a lot is going on, I feel like we can all be together for one night... but my first goal is to breathe, so maybe after that I can plan a little get together and we can all remember how great of friends, above anything else, we are.
Other than that, the puppy Truman, I got just before Matt got home is amazing. He gets cuter everyday and Matt and him have a bond like I have never seen. If I didn't know better I would say they are in love. Watching Matt with him makes me excited to one day have kids... don't worry, ONE DAY far from now... we need to work on marriage first and foremost. He has only 13 months left of the Marine Corps.... and I'm pretty sure he is ready to move forward, go to college, and start a career. He seems so determined and motivated, unlike me, who likes to take my time, he has been through so much that has made him so driven. Its amazing. He is amazing.
Anyway folks, I love you all. And I am glad that we can all soon be reunited. I hope it is soon.
