Good Friday

I'm up so early on a Friday off because I learned that I have an ENT appointment today to "finish the job." Uh oh. I know what means and I'm honestly a bit afraid. He's going to numb the inside of my nose (it's a WEIRD feeling, trust me) and then clean out all the gel packing and any dried . Oh yay. Not.

I mean, yes, it's good but I'm not looking forward to it at all. He said it would not take very long, a few minutes, but that's a few minutes toooooo looooooong!!! I'll let ya know how that goes.

The rest of Good Friday is up in the air, aside from the Good Friday service at my church. My whole Spring Break is up in the air. I mean, I've got a book to finish, some work to do in the lab, and a lab to write, but other than preparing for state science fair, my week is free. :]

I know I already posted this, but I'm so glad to be home... so glad to be back. I've never enjoyed school more than those last two days. I was so happy to just be back to my "normal" because being in the hospital is NOT my normal. And I missed normal.

Life as of Late

I got a "complaint" from a fellow blogger that I don't update enough! Whoops!

All I've been blogging about as of late has been soccer, seeing as my life was almost completely overtaken by it (no complaints there). However that has ended and life has moved on. But to what?

School is obviously still a major part of my daily life. Not my choice, but certainly still there. BUT! The countdown is counting down and the days are numbered. I think the school day count is 33 or something. YEAAHH!!!

But however my life is kinda stressing me out right now. Next Wednesday I go see my ENT. Next Thursday I go into the hospital and get a PICC line. Next Friday I have sinus surgery. Not fun. I've never done it before but I've talked to a lot of people, including my physician, and I feel very comfortable with the whole thing. Well, as comfortable as someone can get about a surgery that's a week away. We'll see closer to time how I'm holding up.

In the Biology 2 class tomorrow (Friday) I get to be show-and-tell. I get to stand at the front of the class and basically explain what life is REALLY like with CF. More than what the books can teach. We'll see how that goes. I have no presentation prepared. I'm just going to wing it. Haha! This could be really funny.

Oh I went to the zoo the other day with the boyfriend. We had fun. :] (see picture at top with my used-to-be-rainbow-but-is-now-brown snowcone!)

Ok. That's my update (BETSY... lol)
