EXHAUSTING!!!

Well, this week has been full of challenges and exhausting trials. I have worked out almost everyday this week. Walking, the eliptical crosstrainer and ab work-outs...sometimes I wanted to quit cause I was so tired...but I kept pushing myself. Thursday and Friday was spent at the hospital getting blood work and exams done, and I have more to do this week. Finding out that my liver was getting weak and my white blood cell count was low, and now have to go see a surgeon to see what else is wrong and what can be done. All I could say is...do whatever it takes, I just want to be healthy and be able to have a baby with my husband. The only thing they could do to carry me over til my other appointments is give me some medications, vitamins, and tell me to eat more...lol. So...I sort of have increased my food intake (just not by much seeing as I am still dieting) and I drink even more water.
I still have the photography class with Andrea every Wednesday, which we love. And at least for the next week I will get to talk to Aaron regularly...but he moves next weekend to a place where I won't be able to hear from him as often. Which just means I am going back to work and back to the tanning bed...since I won't have to be at home like I have been. Aaron has been back in Iraq for over a month now, and I am working on his 3rd package. He loves scuba diving and said that if he was to go to college he would want to go in for marine biology...so I bought him a marine book with lots of awesome pictures. It was the most expensive book I have ever bought that wasn't for college. But I think that he will love it. If anyone else wants to write him or anything his address is:

SSG Golson, Aaron S.
18th ORD Co. (EOD)
FOB SYKES
APO AE 09351

Well, I want to finish scrubbing the house. If I am going back to work here soon, I want to know that the house is in incredible condition so I just have to work hard on the weekends and just tidy up during the week. I hope that everyone is haveing a great week.
Love Ya'

Sounds like you are on the ball with life girl! I have been doing school, studying all the time, working out everyday, running after 3 kids, and trying so hard to find time to maintain a clean house! Get to it while you can! lol I hope everything goes well when you meet with the surgeon. Hopefully nothing major. We will pray for you on this end. Have a great week and send Aaron our love and support.

When I told Dad what you said about Aaron wanting to go into Marine Biology if he goes to college, he said that he wished Aaron would go into Army Biology. haha. He also said that he thinks Aaron will enjoy doing that.

I, too, hope everything goes well when you go see the surgeon. Tomrrow I will call the temple and put your name on the prayer roll and we'll pray for you, too.

Alright Sarah....where be the new blogginess???
How are things in life? Aaron doing alright? Do you like being back to work? What's 4 times 56? I know...so many questions!
Glad to hear that you at least have Andrea to keep you sane, though I see that more as an oxymoron....yep, called Andrea a moron there...shhh!
I am so looking forward to Christmas break! I haven't been on a vacation in forever!! It will be nice to have scrapbooking moments over hot cocoa and Buffy...possibly some Charmed and Grey's Anatomy there too! :)
Hope you got the goodness flowing in the life!
