A quick snapshot of Mel....

It’s been a while since my last update. There are so many things I want to share. The last couple of months have been quite eventful. Here’s the short version in bullet points. I’ll probably have to explain more later on some of them. =)

• My best friend got married. It was the most beautiful experience of my life. I’ll definitely be blogging about that later.

• My car was broken in to. My laptop was stolen. I was PISSED.

• I got a phone call from a random person and my laptop was returned. It was over $300 to get my window fixed…but I’ve never been so humbled in my entire life. Another blog for this one.

• Work is going great. I’ve been really busy lately and I tend to work an extra hour or so each day. I love what I do. I love the people I work with.

• This is the company I work for. www.anode.com

• I leave my house at 7 am and I usually get home at 6:30 pm. I go to bed at 9. I’m not a huge fan of living so far away from my office.

• I feel like I don’t have a lot of time to myself. And I definitely don’t have a lot of time for friends. It’s lonely.

• Over the past two weeks I’ve had several blood tests, lab work, and a CT scan. I got a call from my doctor on Thursday. It’s been six months since my last round of tests. And there’s no improvement. So…she wants to do more tests. I have to do a MRI on my head.

• I get claustrophobic. So I really hate the idea of laying there and having my head stuck in a loud machine where I can’t move!

• I wake up at least once, sometimes twice, a night with horrible leg cramps. Sometimes it takes up to 20 minutes before they stop.

• It’s really cold in my room right now.

• It’s 7:30 am on Saturday. I’ve been up since 6:15. L

• As I’m typing this, a team of about 40 people are getting ready to board a plane to Haiti. This is the first November in 4 years that I will not be with that team.

• I really miss being a part of the ministry with Haiti. Something in my heart tells me that I’ll never go back.

• It amazes me how much time changes things.
  

• I love the smell of Clinique Happy Heart perfume.

• I’m hanging out with some of my best girl friends tonight. I see them maybe once every two months. I cherish them dearly.

I’m going to go scramble some eggs for breakfast now. I’ll write again soon. I promise. Happy Weekend!!
