I Didn't Sleep Well
I didn't sleep very well last night or the night before. Its strange how my body seems to know when he is and isn't there. One more night of restless sleep and then he will be home.

The Good Things in Life
Facebook and blogger seem to be filled with lists of all the good things in people's lives. I am obviously not the only person who has been focused on the bad in life. I think now that I have gotten some good news I am finally ready for a change in perspective, too see all the good things too.
1) It went away. Whatever was wrong with my body that caused me to have to go to the doctor's so much last month is gone. It made me miserable but my body fought it off and now it is gone. I am lucky it is gone even if I had to go back to the doctors and make calls for so long. There are other people not as lucky as me.
2) I have a job. I may complain about Staples a lot because some of the people who shop there are mean but I have a job and not just a job. I have a job where there are people who care about my health and safety. Where people know I always do my best so when I start needing help they are more than willing to give me that help.
3) I have an apartment and it is all my own. I only have to share it with the people I want to share it with.
4) I have an amazing boyfriend. I don't think I could ever tell him enough how thankful I am to have him around.
5) I have the best kitty ever. She is sweet and gentle.
6) I have a really good family. Sometimes they annoy me they care about me so much.
7) I love my school. I love the University of Maine in Farmington. I love the professors, most of the people in those classes, I love what I am learning, I love the atmosphere of the campus. I could easily imagine myself living here in a more permanent way at some point in my life.
8) Not only do I love the school but I also love the town. I love that even though there is a Walmart and a Hannaford here it still manages to feel very small town to me. I love how safe it feels here and how nice everyone is. I love the sights and sounds.
9) I have food. There are a lot of people in the world who are struggling while I have plenty. I am thankful to be able to feed and clothe myself.
10) I found this amazing series of books to read to keep me occupied this summer. I am thankful to not feel as bored, lonely and depressed as last summer.
11) Steve. I am realizing more and more lately how much he really is like family. I owe him a lot.
12) Mel. Not only has reading kept me occupied this summer but so has Mel. It is good to have a real friend near by to talk to and hang out with. Pretty sure I would have gone crazy without her.
13) I am very thankful to have health insurance even if it is a pain in my butt more often than not. I would not be able to pay for all the medical bills I have probably racked up otherwise.
14) Barnes and Nobel online discounts and sales for helping me find deals on my books. You gotta celebrate the little things sometimes.
15) the ability to read and write. They are my escapes from everything and without them I would not be me.

Good News?
After everything that has been happening with my body the past few weeks I think I have some good news. I went to see the OB/GYN today. First, he took a look with one of those scope things they stick inside of you. That hurts. Then he did an ultra sound with this big rod thing that they put right inside your vagina so they can see everything. Everything looked normal and nothing hurt. Then he did an exam to see if it hurt to move my cervix and it didn't. At all. He said everything looked normal and gave me a clean bill of health. He said it is possible there was something there but it is gone now. He thinks that I may have had a sist on one of my overaies and that it has dissolved away now. If I have any more pain though, I am to call and make another appointment. I think this is good news. I think this means everything is ok. I think I have nothing to worry about in that area anymore. I think now all I need to worry about is my stomach. After everything that has been going on this feels kind of anti-climatic.

Complaining
Does anyone other than Garret actually read this thing? I feel like if they do then they must be very disappointed that it is a lot of me whining about being sick. I suppose that is natural since this is an outlet for my mind and my writing and the being sick thing is kind of a big thing right now but my God. It just seems like I have yet to find a way out of my own head and worries. I am still in that mode where I just want to grab someone and shake them and yell at them, "Hey, My stomach hurts and I have a crappy doctor who has failed to do anything about for almost two months now. Want to trade places?"
