So, per usual, it's been crazy.
The cyst on my ovary was 12mm (or about 1/4 of the ovary), but they wanted to wait another 6 weeks before they would do anything to deal with it. Thankfully, it seems to be healing on its own, which is great, because in 6 weeks, I'm on a plane to London.
Sunday night, my best friend/sister from another mister was riding her horse with a mutual friend. A drunk driver collided with her and Cajun. Caj was killed and Angie, by some miracle/act of God, was spared with only a severe concussion, serious road rash, and some muscle damage and bruises. By all accounts, she is lucky to be alive, and if not for the extensive training and experience she has on horse back, she probably would be dead. I haven't really processed this. We're working through it together. I've spent 8-10 hours a day out there with her, changing her bandages, keeping her business running, and helping her any way I can. The driver left the scene, but Cajun destroyed his radiator. He is in custody, but we don't have more information than that right now. So if I'm not around, it's because I'm busy being a nurse.
Cruella delivered her kids 12 days early, but they are both healthy little things, and beautiful little does. I'm having a hard time naming them though.
My birthday is this weekend. Friday I'm going to dinner with my friends and seeing where the night takes us. Saturday Jhay and I are headed north to go kayaking with my dad for the day.
Be good to each other, kids. Do good for each other, too. Donate 10 dollars to the Red Cross, volunteer at the homeless shelter, or find something that makes your heart feel better. Life can be brutal, but it can also be beautiful, if we give the beauty in ourselves to it.
