Phew, I need a vacation.
Four months down on the deployment. Six more until R&R. We're getting there!
I've had so much going on lately I can't even think straight. My mom is up here visiting to help me stop the spinning.
So, I had an MRI and an ultrasound done to check on some back pain that has finally been giving me daily trouble and to check on my rogue ovary because I'm concerned about ovarian cancer. Both come back with the results "you're old." So I have a bulging, torn and arthritic disc and an appointment to see a neurosurgeon to decide surgery or not (I'm thinking NOT). I also have what my doctor called a mass on my left side where my ovary should be. He doesn't even think its an ovary anymore. And if its sits for too long, it could become cancer. So I'm almost definitely losing my left ovary soon.
Four years ago and I would have been devestated at losing my ovary. One pregnancy later and an adoption on the way, and I'm happy to get rid of it. My only concern is the drop in hormones, but right now my doctor is thinking it stopped giving my hormones awhile ago. When they cut Sam out of me, the surgeon thought I had had it removed because there was nothing recognizable as an ovary on that side. Niiiiice.
And if that wasn't enough, my renter suddenly left this month, 6 months early, and upon looking at the house and doing some painting, I've decided to put it on the market! I realized with some new paint on the inside and outside, and the recent upturn in the market here, it might be a good opportunity. So, I'm taking it. The house is worth more than ever, but I'm knocking 20K off the top and pricing it to sell. I've given myself two weeks to get all the work done before putting it on the market. Pray for me!

Good luck selling the house, I bet it will sell pretty fast now that the market has picked back up!
