hey everybody,

So I went to the surgeons on Monday. He suggested that I wait until my symptoms worsened, before performing a biopsy. He is hoping that my symptoms will just go away and that it was a one time thing. Well, I really have no choice but to wait, seeing as my insurance ends this month. Both my mothers (Tami and Bev), are really wanting me to get a second opinion, which I totally agree with. I just don't have time to start from scratch with another physician before my insurance is gone. So I am kinda stuck. I will have insurance in January. So hopefully the symptoms don't worsen too much before then.

Emma and I have been SO sick :( I don't know what we have, just a really bad case of the flu??!!?? But it sucks and it has really been the perfect way to end a perfect month (no sarcasm there.lol.) But the way I see it, this has been such a SUCKIE MONTH and that means that September is going to rock! The universe has to keep a balance and so hopefully my life will get back on track and happier days are coming my way!

On a different note, while visiting with family last week; we did some cool stuff. First, we stayed in my sister's dorm in downtown Seattle. There's nothing quite like waking up to the smell of Pike Place Market's FISH!!! Yuck! We went to woodland park zoo, and Emma LOVED it. Then we visited Gramma Tami and Papa Paul. Tami was squirting Emma with the hose and Emma got completely soaked! I spent time with long lost friends and family...sorry guys for not visiting more often. Then we headed home.

This last Wednesday, Brian and I went to a 3 Doors Down, Staind and Hinder concert at the wamu theatre in Seattle. It was a lot of fun. However, probably would have been more fun if I wasn't so sick. I bought the tickets for Brian as a fathers day gift. I think it was perfect timing we needed to get out, just the two of us.

Tonight, I am going out with some girlfriends. Seeing as I am sick (and not a drinker) I am going to be the DD. I tryed to get out of it, because I am sick but Sonya is not having it. She is forcing me to go...it should be fun. We are going to a salsa club in Yakima. I am TERRIFIED! I CANT DANCE! I look like an idiot anytime I try...I cant keep a beat to save my life. But everyone else will be drunk so hopefully they wont notice my bad dance moves. lol.

I will post pictures soon. Lots of fun ones from the zoo!
