A Normal Heart
My heart is normal. The dr. said the murmur is benign and just 'one of those things,' and the palpitations/skips are evidently caused by stress and caffeine. I don't have mitral valve prolapse, which I thought I might have inherited from my mother. Not that it's a condition to worry too much about, but... it's one of those things I wanted to be sure of. I'm happy about all that... also feeling like a bit of a hypochondriac, but I think it's good to get this stuff checked out and to err on the side of caution. If I hadn't done that, I'd never known I had two uterine polyps.
In more exciting news, my youngest sister Amy turned 27 on Monday, April 4, and she also GOT ENGAGED!!!!! She has been dating this guy for a long time, and as you may recall they bought a house together not too long ago. So now they are gettin' married. They don't have an official date, but it might be August 'at the earliest.' He gave her diamond earrings AND an engagement ring.
At least one of us will be married off now. HA!
My 32nd b-day is tomorrow (April 6), but it's no big whoop. I've already 'felt' 32 all year and have told people that's my age. So I kind of feel like my b-day has already passed. And I'll be at work! But I am taking next week (April 11-15) off. C. and I are going on our first lil' trip together, to Hearst Castle, on April 14-16.
