1.  Medical Stuff:  2 days of PT this week, had T-9 and T-10 nerve block injections, saw Dr. Rosen, scheduled with Dr. Lavallee and the POTS cardiologist in South Bend.  

1.  Jill, Audrey, Jameson, and Cami came to visit on Monday.  It was awesome to just hang out with the girls!  Jameson and I made chocolate chip muffins, and of course we had to taste test them! I think Jameson approved of our baking. What do you think?

1.  Champions!  The Michigan State Football team wins a share of the Big Ten Title for the first time in 20 years.  AND Dantonio was named Big Ten coach of the year! Always proud to be a Spartan! 

Today I am thankful for my Wexford Montessori Family.  I can honestly say that I work at the BEST school, and I cannot wait to return once I have a handle on the POTS and the EDS. 

First and foremost, I am thankful for ALL of the kids that make up Wexford.  The kids are why I love what I do, and are my inspiration each day to keep pushing forward to get better so I can be back with them.  Oh, how I miss and love those kids.

September was the month I would be starting my 6th year of teaching.  August was the month Brad and I were supposed to start trying to have a family.  July was the month we were supposed to go to Gun Lake with friends.  June was the month I would get to see my favorite band, Dave Mathews Band in concert.  None of these things happened.


If the last year has taught me anything, it has taught me that life throws curve balls that are often beyond my control.  This has been a very hard lesson for me to learn; one that is extremely hard to accept for a type A, control freak like myself.  I have also learned that putting timelines on life doesn’t always work out as well.
