I am Ebullient

To make the story short, I have had 2 back surgeries in less than a year.  The doctor didn't say I had to do therapy so I have been working out at home.  I even thought I was seeing a difference.  All the doctor really said after the 2nd surgery was the same as after the 1st surgery - lose weight. On Monday afternoon I sat down and my muscles just tightened up.  After talking with a nurse on Tuesday (since my doctor is out of the country) she thinks it is a muscle spasm.  Well holy crap this is a painful muscle spasm, which for me is just a tightening of the muscles. I was stuck in bed all day yesterday and today I am still in bed.  I absolutely hate this.  This is not how you live life! I started taking a steriod pack this morning.  On the first day you take the most so I can only hope it helps.  I am also taking a muscle relaxer.  I can only hope that doing everything I can think of to keep my back safe is going to work.  I am st...

Well every time I turn around it is babies babies babies.  I love it! Sure at times I wish it was me but my friends are all pretty awesome.  They all know how bad I want to be a mom so they are all so good with letting me be there.  I hope I help them too!  They are all being such great moms.  I am so proud of them. But the reason for this post is that my friend called me yesterday.  We don't do phones too much so when she is calling I know there is something going on.  She and her husband have been trying to adopt.  They already have a awesome little boy who is 3 years old but they wanted more children and it just wasn't happening.  So they decided to look into adoption.  We talked about all this a lot since I am adopted.  She wanted mine and my moms take on a few things.  On the side, in case anyone cares - I love my parents and my sister (who is also adopted).  I couldn't have asked for better!  I love th...

Why was I thinking about writing a blog about, well me? Sounds kind of selfish when you think about a blog but you need things to pass the time and to vent.  Anyway I woke up on this cold Sunday morning at 5 AM.  That is earlier than a normal work day.  Of course I wanted to go back to bed so I started looking for a movie to watch.  Julie & Julie was on encore.  Now you know what made me think of a blog.  I have started 2 other blogs in the past that I let die.  There was one for working out/becoming a Beachbody coach and another called "Suck It Up Sister".  I don't even remember why I made the Suck It Up Sister.  It sounds like I was pissed about things and needed to get over it. I am sure there will be suck it up moments in this blog but not just those moments. I doubt this will be a daily update it probably won't even be bi-weekly.  Just as things happen. It may be happy, entertaining, depressing or confusing but I thi...
