Save the date...

For our house party! I don't really know what a house warming party is so I don't want to call it that. So it's just a house party. I hope everyone checked their email, if I had your email, and RSVPed to my Evite. If you haven't, gimmy your email. I really hope most of the family can make it early to spend some time together before the rest of the guests come. :-D I'm really excited! It will be fun. If you want to hike the property bring some muddy shoes.

Welcome to our new home! It will still take a few weeks to finalize everything but this is it. I don't want to put many pictures up because I want you to come see it for yourself. I have already started packing! YAY! This will be hopefully my last move ever. I'm excited!

Gratitude

I get little "ah HA" moments often that I think I should start writing down. They usually are nothing new but jut hit me in a different light. I am so grateful for my body the Lord has given me. He has given me a talent of Dance (I would like to think), And I know some day he will bless me to become whole so I may dance again. I knew I would be grateful for my trail some day and now I think I truly am. Because of my body and the trail it is going through, I have received a rare blessing to share. I love giving and having the means to do it.

Please, my shoulder is a blessing. It doesn't need to be a topic of sorrow. There are times I do wish it was better, but all in good time.

This is a picture off my old phone that I took of Indi when we first got her and were going to Mom and Dads at the Manzanita house. The car ride there was when we came up with her name of Indigo. Look how small she is, and white. She's the best

This is a vent

Warning. This entry is for me to drain my emotions. This is not a happy post...just so you know.


So Today I met with Dr. Switlyk, well his assistant Julie, to talk of more shoulder stuff. My nerve test was flawless meaning my nerves are working just fine and communicating with each other like they are supposed to. There is not explanation as to why my muscule aren't growing to use the motion I can passivly get. The michanics of my replacment limit me to a point but my muscules should still carry me up to that point if they exsisted. Basically it comes down to this, I will be in pain for the rest of my life. The pain will get worse and worse. When I deside I can't bear the pain any longer, I will get the complete shoulder replacement. Which means, They will put a new socket on by drilling into the bone and screwing it in. After 15 years when it will enevitably fail (30% fail in 15 years), I will have to get it taken out, and get a bone graff to fill in the hole, basically putting me back to where I am now with bone on metal joint. And now we have come full painful circle. You can tell I'm exstatic.

Dance Team

State Dance Competition was this last Wednesday and Thursday and we preformed pretty well. We didn't place very high but the girls had fun. It was kind of a rough year jumping in in the middle of it. Next year will be much better and much more organized. We basically had practice all week on Monday night, Tuesday morning and Tuesday night, then competition on Wednesday and Thursday. My birthday was in there some where. Jon and Julie got Tim and I a picture of us together from our sealing that we can put up on the wall, It was so sweet of them to do since we didn't really have one. And I love it. I just don't know where to put it. Tim got me a few things as well, he was really sweet about it and put some thought into each thing. We lit Julies cake twice so I had some candles to blow out too.
