I know I have been MIA a lot lately, I lurk sometimes and post even less. It is getting harder and harder to be here and I feel I know less people on the main board.
I finally called the RE today. We are going on January 15th. Our insurance won't cover anything, which is part of the reason I waited so long. It is for a consultation, so hopefully it won't be too expensive. We want to know our options and the cost associated with them. That way we will have time to save for whatever it is we decide to do.
This week has been crazy. Only one more week until Christmas break for my students. I am excited about two whole weeks off. I have had a lot of absent students. I thought I was getting sick over the weekend but it turned out to be the worst muscle spasm I have ever had. I went to the doctor on Monday and got a muscle relaxer and pain reliever, he gave me the number to a physical therapist and said that if it doesn't go away in a week I should go to physical therapy.
I guess this was more of an update. I will try my best to be more active on the boards. Thanks for all the lovely cards and yummy recipes. Mine will go out on Monday, I am going to work on them all weekend.
