Updates

Virus: It's still kicking around here. I'm so tired of it that I don't think I'll even write more. Take THAT, Mr. Virus. Now, get out!!!!

Numbness: I went for a nerve conduction study yesterday and I'm waiting on the results. Needless to say, I've been imagining worst case scenarios in my head, which doesn't help my nerves any. Most likely it's a pinched/compressed nerve somewhere, but still my mind takes me down all kinds of crazy roads. Especially late at night, fear and anxiety can easily get the best of me. I haven't felt this physically vulnerable since right after Joseph's birth when so many things were out of whack. I hope some answers come soon.

Job: I've saved the biggest for last. Larry got the job and he's taking it! Like I said, this is BIG. He's worked hard for this and I'm very happy for him. It is very bittersweet, of course, because it means leaving all of our dear, dear friends here. Like many things in life, gain and loss come hand in hand and one must find a way to rejoice and grieve at the same time. Sometimes it seems like too much for a heart to hold, but thankfully God is big enough to catch the overflow. At this point, we are looking at starting our move on March 21st. There is SO much to do before then. Talk about anxiety! I think I'll stop here for now, even though there's much more floating about in my head. I just wanted to get this out here so that some of you hear it from me before from someone else. I'll send out an email with more details soon.

Congrats to your family! I'm so glad that after all those interviews your husband was the one chosen! I hope that you get some news about your hand very soon. The not knowing is the toughest part.
Your "Mr. Virus" makes me think about that Mucinex commercial with the little green guy who moves and settles in. Eviction notice NOW!! Feel better.
