Happy Spring...or at least I had hoped! Not yet...we got another snow storm last night. I am over SNOW!
We recently put in a wireless doorbell! Hurray! You can now tell if someone comes to the door. Funny how a working doorbell can make you Happy!
We also put up a carbon monoxide detector. I had recently seen a couple of stories about them on the news and decide that was a must. So we took our Home Depot Gift Card from Christmas that Tony and Amy bought us and used it to purchase these important items.

Brrr... it's cold in Michigan
A photo of our house with icicles on a cold winter day in Michigan!
Wish I had the the whole weekend off to spend with Andy, but I work on Saturday. I think this might be his first or second one off since winter begain!
I am so happy it is Friday! My mom came to town yesterday to see my nephew and his family for a few days. Today I will spend some time with her, I am sure we will hit a few scrapbooking stores and do some other shopping.

Okay...test results - they can not find anything wrong. They did see that my lower back has some arthritis in it. That however did not cause the pain in my left side. I have no idea what it was or is so I returned back to work on Thursday. I talked with the chiropractor about working less hours and he thinks it would help my body. Andy and I discussed it and we have decided that I will still work at Sam's Club, but I will only fork 4 days at 5 hour shifts per week. I will continue to seek other employment that would not be so demanding on my back.
I hope every one had a great Valentine's Day. Check out these pictures that my cousin Christy took of the Oliver twins. I just love these!

Sick, Sick, Sick....and then it Snow's
Okay... I have been so sick!
Week 1) It started with pulling my back out and having 2 days off due to that.
Week 2) On Tuesday while getting ready for work I got this headache that just would not quit. I took some medicne and thought it should go away in a little bit. I arrived at work feeling much worse and was having problems with my vision. I worked for 2 hours when I just could not function and had to leave work. I called Andy and told him he would need to take me to see the Dr. because I could not drive. I sat in the parking lot and thought I think I can drive, so I drove (safely) to Andy's work and parked in fron of his truck and waited for him. He came and took me to the Dr. and 2 shots later one for each hip (guess she didn't want one hip to feel lonely) ouch! I was sent home to rest. On Wednesday and Thursday I was still having this same problem so I was scheduled to see a Opthamoligist for further testing. I did will thru my test and Andy brought me home and back to bed I went. ( Oh! did I mention that on Wed. I went to bed at 11pm and got up at 2:36pm when the phone rang and told me I had to see the opthamoligist that day. ) Friday morning, I wake up with good vision... Thank God! I still have the headache but it has lightened some. Saturday morning, no headace...Thank God! However I woke up with this stabbing pain on my left side, hmm...toughen up and go to work. Andy was at work so I had no one here to tell about it. Maybe it will just go away!
Week 3) Pain from my left side is still there and dare I say worse. I was not as lucky today...Andy did not have to work and when I bent over to get something from the freezer and the pain was like a knife stabbing me, Andy was you are going to the emergency room...no I will be fine. When he said he was calling the ambulance thats when I said ok I'll go. As we pulled out the drive, Andy said well I must love you here it is Super Bowl Sunday and we are headed for the hospitial. We arrived at the er at 2:14pm and got out at 7ish. They gave me some drugs, took some blood, and a cup-o-pee, I had a ct scan for my abdomin and then they ask how you feeling...hmmm! You drug me up and want to know how I feel, does this make sense. I was released with a pain killer script, with a unknown reason, and orders to follow up with my dr. the next day. Monday Andy takes the day off and takes me in to the dr.s office. She is stummped also. So I was sent home to take the pain killers for 24 hours and then to follow up with her if there is any change whatsoever. Andy took off Tuesday and I slept more than I was awake.
Wednesday morning, the only change is it is not as intense of a pain and Andy was called in to wo to work at 6am. Ice, Sleet, Snow and winds...Good Day to stay inside! I call the dr.s office to get a appointment for a recheck. Ok, bad roads and I am on my way back to the dr.s office. I get there and get to give another cup-o-pee and chest xrays. See the dr. to find I have a slight infection, so I am given some samples of meds and a order for another ct scan for my chest area on Friday.
I follow up with my dr. on Monday!
Thursday morning, Andy had to be at work at 4am today. No change with me other than I am so sick of beign SICK all the time!
Okay...anybody got any suggestions?

What a awesome god!
I want all you blogger's to check out this site on my space...
MySpace URL:
http://www.myspace.com/kristyreynolds
This is about a little boy that was injured by a babysitter. People from everywhere have been praying for him! How awesome is our god!
I check for updates on him every few days and tonight was so happy to see a video posted!
As I watched the video tonight my eyes were filled with tears.
All I can think of is How Awesome is our God!
I enjoyed my 3 day weekend off. Stayed home mostly and relaxed. I did go with the neighbor Cindy to the meat market in Lowell on Saturday. Andy wanted some beef sticks. They are really good. I was not so sure at first but I will buy them again. I also got Andy some spicy meat stick and some turkey jerky...think I will pass on those.
Sunday night I bent over to get a piece of paper to print something from the computer and pulled my back out! I was in so much pain and having spasms that neither one of us got much sleep. I went Monday to Dr. Newmyer for a adjustment ( dad Lucas took me). I stayed home today and will go back to Dr. Newmyer on Wednesday. Hope to return to work on Thursday.
So my 3 day weekend has now turned in to 6.
