Moving Along

Over the last week or so we've done a few things to get ready for moving.  I went through my craft room last week and moved a ton of stuff out of it.  All stuff that I'm putting in the garage sale pile.  I'm glad we're finally going to get rid of some stuff.  Now I just need to get DH to go through his office. 

Also, I've been pretty sick.  The doctor thinks it's my gallbladder, but we spent the morning in the ER and they didn't think that was it.  They gave me some medication so I'm feeling quite a bit better now, but I think it's starting to wear off.  But I go back for another appointment on Monday and I'm really happy about that since it means we might finally have an answer. 

In the last week we also signed some paperwork so we could start moving on our loan and get that approved.  That was exciting because it means we're really buying a house.  We're also looking at a closing date of September 2nd, which is a few weeks earlier than we thought we'd be closing.  I can't wait to move. 

It's starting to feel like we really are buying a house.  Now we just need to get back in there and do a couple inspections.  I'm really looking forward to moving into our new house and turning it into our own space.  I'm also looking forward to having some color on the walls.  We've lived with white walls for so long and I'm looking forward to being able to change that. 

So that's all for the update.  Still no crafty projects, but in the next month or so we should be starting some work on the house. 

Seriously?

I managed to avoid getting sick since August.  Despite the fact that I was only working one day a week I had no significant illnesses (other than some allergy issues) for about 5 months.  Then, I start a job that I am really excited about and I have to call in on my second day because I have a kidney infection.  The worst part is that the nausea comes and goes so I'll be feeling fine and think I have energy to do something and should go into work, but then I either end up feeling weak or feeling like I'm going to be sick.  I actually wanted to go to work today (I don't think I've ever been able to say that) and I can't because I'm afraid I'll throw up at work.  Fortunately they're very understanding.  I have antibiotics so I am determined to make it to work tomorrow.  Here's hoping it kicks in enough to make me feel better by then. 

Unfortunately I also don't have the energy to craft, but I do have a few things to share in the next couple days.  Stay tuned. 

Immunity

I completed another item on my 101 list, but it wasn't intentional.  For my new job I had to have my titers checked for a bunch of diseases including chicken pox (which I apparently am very immune to), and some others that I can't remember right now.  As it turns out, I am still sufficiently vaccinated against everything so I don't need to get any boosters (yay!). 

Sinus Infection

I haven't been crafting because I'm pretty sure I have a sinus infection.  Every time I stand up my head starts throbbing and my sinuses feel like they're on fire.  I'm hoping that I'll feel better by next week so that I can start working on more stuff.  I still have a ton of quilt squares to cut, but I don't have the energy to stand up for very long.  Hopefully I'll be up and running again soon.
