The beautiful sunrise we were greeted with this morning
I was just telling the kids this morning about how clever and Heavenly Father is. There are so many things in this world that are ugly and wrong and just plain evil, yet, we are blessed with beauty in things we take for granted. A sunrise for example. It was a great way to start the day :)

The Gall of it!
So no gall stones... Not sure how relieved I am though. On the one hand it's good because I don't have to have my gall bladder removed, so no hospitalization required. Also, all my organs are ok so nothing weird picked up there. He said it could be inflammation of the (something starting with a 'D' which comes right after the stomach) which causes the pain. So he's prescribed an antacid and it should settle within a few days if it's that. On the other hand, I'm petrified of cancer so I drilled him all about that, how it works and what could / would happen if it doesn't settle. So, having my mind a bit clearer on that, I suppose I do feel a bit better.
I had worst case scenarios going through my mind...
At least it's all done now (and hopefully it'll all settle and I'll be done with it).
I can't imagine how tough it must be for parents who find out they're going to leave a family behind. I shudder at the thought.

Kael
Yesterday morning, I was giving my younger 2 kiddies breakfast (they'd asked for Jordy's cereal - he got a box of Milo cereal for his birthday last week). So I put some in a bowl for Kael and he told me that he didn't want milk with it. A few minutes later, he then said, "Actually, I do want milk. I was confused!"
Seriously, how many kids at the age of 35 months can say that. I love that my kids talk so well :)

Doctors...
So here I sit, waiting patiently at the X-ray department of Olivedale for someone to see me and do a scan of my abdomen... I may have gall stones. How exciting! Not really but what else can I say about it? It's freezing in this waiting area - as though they think it's 35°C outside the room and they need to keep the heat out.
Apparently they have to remove the gall bladder if it is gall stones. Now that sounds like a whole barrel of fun hey?

Last week of school Term 1 2012
Well here we are... The last week of the first term of 2012. Already! Jules seems to have done well in Grade 4 so it's not as bad as I thought I would be. We still have exams to experience next term though so perhaps I shouldn't count my chickens.
Jordy is styling Grade 1 - Mrs Kaspersen really did a fantastic job getting him ready for big school.
We'll get their reports on Thurs eve @ parents' evening. Then I may just keep them home from school on Friday - just coz I can.

Finding me...
Wanna see if this still works - been forever since I last blogged and I'm going through a rough time.
I'm taking a break from facebook - I just spend too much time there. I'm also a bit lost in where I'm at and I've forgotten who I am. I think I'm too caught up in what I do. At the moment, I'm just going through the motions with everything - kids, family, home, church etc.
So I'll be posting here from now on. Until I find me again.
