The Oldroyd Family

I had a rough day Thursday.  You see, I'm a planner.  As long as I can plan, I stay sane.  So I had planned, per the doctor's words, that by this Friday, I'd have the results of my biopsy.  I'd have a diagnosis.  I'd have a plan for treatment.  Earlier in the week, they moved my appointment up to Thursday.  GREAT.  Even better.  Then Thursday morning came, I got a call from the nurse & she said my results weren't in yet & wouldn't be until later next week.  I'm leaving for Utah on Tuesday for 2 weeks.  That means 2 1/2 more weeks of not knowing exactly what is going on in my body.  2 weeks of not knowing what's in store for my future.  I was pretty ticked. So what did I do?  I headed over to the nail salon & got myself and nice mani/pedi.  The DELUXE version.  And it felt good.  But it didn't FEEL good.  I was still pretty unhappy.  I was cranky with my kids all day & just in...

1.  I had my biopsy last week.  It went ok.  The actual procedure was pretty painful but I was mildly sedated so it was ok (and my doctor was pretty attractive so I held it together :)).  The recovery wasn't too bad at all, just a little pain.  The big pain was not being able to lift Max for a week.  I may have cut that a little short.  Also, thanks to all my friends & family for prayers, concern, emails, texts, calls & meals.  I am one blessed lady.  As for the results... still not in.  And they won't be in before I leave for Utah Tuesday.  So the wait continues! 2.  I'm flying by myself with the kids to Utah Tuesday.  It probably will be a disaster but it will definitely be worth it.  I always love going up to see friends & family but this is a special trip because my newest nephew was just born 2 days ago!  This is Hunter Joseph Partridge- what a cutie!!  I think he looks just like his ...
