1. i'd have to say... that i definitely should not have posted anything about the possibility of being pregnant. live and learn right? for all of you that are curious i'm not pregnant. i do however have some crazzzzy acid reflex thing going on.
here's a little health fact for ya..if you have heartburn or you're throwing up or anything like that your lungs automatically tighten up and have a little covering that goes over the top of them to protect them from the stomach acid. interesting huh? so with that said let me explain...last sunday night i had what most would describe as an asthma attack. super scary. i've never experienced something like that. it was horrible. except i don't have asthma. the next day the doctor was called and come thursday we had an idea of what was going on. for about the same amount of time that i've had the heartburn and nausea thing, i've also had trouble breathing. i haven't been able to fully catch my breath with just basic breathing, so after sunday night matt and i were really worried about it. hence the doctor. good thing too because after he taught me about that little tid bit of information up there he put me on a prescription of prilosec and an inhaler. blessings straight from heaven i tell you. i couldn't remember the last time i didn't have heartburn. do you know what it feels like NOT to have your esophagus on fire?!?! AMAZING. and i can breath. that's awesome too. it's so nice not to have to try to make yourself yawn just to get air inside you. the doctor says that the acid business could be from stress, or new foods, or pure luck of the draw. in two weeks we'll have a final conclusion though. he said more than likely i got the luck of the draw and it'll go away with some medicine it's just a question of how long i'll have to be on it. i'll keep you posted.
2. i'd have to say...i've been very blessed in my life. a couple weeks ago in church someone said that their mom had always told them to be and to have friends that the Savior would have. isn't that profound? that simple phrase has stuck with me the last couple weeks. i've taken for granted the friends that i have and what amazing examples they are to me. i've truly been blessed by their influence, compassion, and friendship. i've also thought a lot about how i can improve to be more like the Savior myself so I can be a friend that the Savior would have. given i do believe that the Savior would accept anyone and treat everyone as His friend but those he surrounded Himself with on a regular basis i'm sure were great in their Christlike attributes as well. with that said, as always there is definitely room for improvement. what a great blessing the Atonement is.
3. i'd have to say...that i'm STILL working on getting my thank you cards out from our wedding. ps-do you know how long ago that was?? FOREVER in thank you card time. all of the tennessee ones have been written, stamped, and mailed. all of the utah and washington ones have not. 3/4 have been written, most have been sealed, but none have been mailed. horrible. i feel awful about it. life has been insane with getting married, moving, finals, summer school, and starting a full time job. plus matt says it doesn't help that i can't just say thank you but have to personalize and express my appreciation. i don't want anyone to think that that's all justification it's merely an explanation. i truly am grateful for all we received for our wedding. it's just embarrassing for me to not have expressed that gratitude sooner.
4. i'd have to say...that work is great. i love my job. it's getting busier by the day as students begin coming back. school starts a week from wednesday so our office will be full again. summer ending is bitter sweet.
5. i'd have to say...that i'm not excited for school to start. i just officially finished my summer semester and am not ready for it to begin again. i am grateful however that this is the beginning of the first of my last two semesters. april could not come sooner.
6. i'd have to say...that life is grand. and this post is long. so until next time...

I feel your pain. I have had stomach problems since I was fifteen. My Mom says I could have been pregnant a lot since I feel like that a ton of the time. I know how you feel!
