Tonsils

Now that we have a big expensive hospital, doctor, nurse, and every one else bill we have to pay for, things are just getting better! it seems like when i am on the right path to start getting things paid down, that things happen, i ended up with a cold a few days ago, it started with the whole sore throat thing and so i took some nyquil and headed to bed, the next morning i woke up with a really stuffy nose and everything else you get with a cold, well i thought it would start going away, well last night i went to bed, and woke up about 2 this morning with my throat burning, i haven't been able to sleep to well all night, and finally felt my throat and my tonsils, are HUGE again. Yes i said again, i had this same problem last year and was going to get them taken out and then realized i had to pay taxes and other medical bills that there was no way i could afford to get my tonsils done, and thought that i would just hold off. I am freaking out this morning because i know i really need to get them done, but that is just going to be another 10 grand that i didn't have to spend in the first place. I am going to try to hold off again, but i just don't know how much longer i can hold off for. I might have to make my final decision once we get Jeff's medical bills. I know it's not his fault and its okay, I just need to remember to keep paying my tithing, and have the faith that we will be okay, and blessed in the end. If any one has good ideas of what to do while i let these HUGE tonsils sit in my throat for the time being that would be great!

Hospital visits

This weekend was crazy. Friday night we went to the OIT basketball game! we love going because our team is soooooo good! we love watching every chance we get! Jeff made new friends on Friday and they were asking for us to come back the next day but we do have to share the tickets so we weren't able to go. (They are a couple of "young" guys) Saturday Jeff woke up complaining that is stomach hurt, he still went to work, and worked all day long, he didn't eat anything and when we got home he went straight to bed, after being in bed for a few hours i had him go downstairs because he was freezing, so i warmed up some blankets and put him on the couch, well he looked up on webmd to see if he could figure out what was wrong with him, it said he might have a appendicitis, so he called his dad who has had to take 2 other children to get their's out. His dad said we should go to the ER, we both hate having to go unless it is an EMERGENCY. i was talking with a friend who's aunt is a nurse and she said to have him push on it and pull away real quick to see if it hurt worse. Well he did (had to make him) and he freaked out so we jumped in the car and headed up there, we were in the ER for about 2 hours and they came and told us that the OR doctor was on his way and get ready because you are going in for surgery. Once the OR doctor got there it was about 5 minutes later and they were rolling him in for surgery. After waiting an hour with his dad (which was nice) the doctor came out and said it was diffenantly an appendicitis, so it was a good thing we went when we did so it didn't burst. We thought for sure that Jeff would be able to come home Sunday, after spending the night and only getting 2 hours of sleep i was excited to get him home and take care of him there, well Sunday morning he calls and says they are keeping him for another night, so another night in the hospital another couple grand and a very uncomfortable, not able to sleep night. Jeff got up about 2:30 and woke me up because he thought i looked so uncomfortable and so then i got up and slept in the hospital bed the rest of the night with him. He was finally able to go home this morning and is doing better, but still sick and has a bad headache. This week is going to be crazy, we were supposed to be packing and moving before thanksgiving but now we are never moving now! just kidding, we will move just not soon. from tomorrow til Sunday i will have family here and everything so the rest of the week it's going to be crazy!

Goals

This weekend i have goals that need to be met! so i thought i would write a list of things i need to get done so that maybe i will actually get them done, and when i get on the computer instead of doing them, they will be in my face and reminding me to get them done.
1. Start packing up the house
2. Take stuff to the dump
3. Clean the house
4. Throw more junk away
5. save money
So these goals are for this weekend and this next week, i only have Tuesday off so a lot of this has got to get done tonight and tomorrow, and then Tuesday i will have to go to the dump by myself. We've got a lot of work that needs to be done, i really want to be moved in and settled before Thanksgiving, if we are then who ever stays with us will have the whole upstairs or down stairs to themselves! 2 bedrooms and a bathroom either way! So thats my goals for now if i think of more that i need to get done then i will add them on.

A little update

I thought i would update my blog a little bit, lets see where to begin...
Jeff and i are getting things around the house taken care of so we can move, we aren't moving far but we will be moving out of our ward that I am going to miss so much, i don't know about Jeff but i know i will miss it and miss having the sun beams to teach, (even if sometimes can be very hard to deal with them.) we just decided this in the last couple of weeks, so we are still in the beginning stages of things.
At the current moment, Jeff is down 21lbs and i am down 12lbs! we need to get back in the gear of walking again, but i think i will wait for Jeff to get over his cold before we start that up again! I am so proud of both of us! I think my losing 12lbs is more about stress then anything. I have been so stressed lately and i think that is why i am having such bad stomach problems, i finally went to the doctor and all the blood work came back fine and negative so everything is good! i am sure it is just my ulcer acting up because of all the stress, i know i shouldn't stress but some times it's hard. I know that we will be fine in the end and be able to get things paid off if we just continue to do what is right.
I am super excited for Thanksgiving to come! my whole family will be together and it's going to be wonderful! There is going to be close to 30 of us for dinner! Crazy i know! I am hoping that we are going to be able to do some crafts together too because that would be fun! i am working on mine that i need to get done for Christmas and only have about 4 more to do and then i will be done! i am getting excited for that! i took a really long break because i was getting discouraged but my sister sent me a few things that i needed and now i am back in gear and it will be done for Christmas!
As for Jeff and i other then getting rid of a lot of junk, we are both working and Jeff is still going to school. I am trying to get the house cleaned up as much as possible with my days off and Jeff has taken care of the yard as much as he can, now he just needs some string for the weed eater and then he will be able to take care of the rest! I am hoping once we can afford a battery that we will be able to sell our second car and save a little bit of money that way! It would be nice!
Well i am sorry this post is so long but i haven't updated in awhile.

Not Doing so well

Well it's been close to a month now that every time i eat or smell food i don't feel good and want to throw up, I KNOW i am not pregnant and so that is out of the question, i was trying to go and see my doctor but since he has been out for the past 2 1/2 weeks and is now working part time for awhile i am going to have to see if i can go to another doctor, i am sick of being sick. I hate that i am always sick, every one says how it's in my head all the time but seriously it's not i hate being sick so why would i make myself think that? Anyways so that is going on, and then today i went to my great aunt's funeral. She was truely loved! and will truely be missed by all! it was a wonderful funeral. I would write more but am not feeling well so i think i am off to bed to try and sleep it off.
