Deep Breath

 Do it with me, deep breath in... and exhale.

One more time, deep breath in... and exhale.

It's been a crazy couple of weeks. My last post was about Beth stepping on the nail. That was on a Thursday. 

Then on Monday she had her first cortisone shot in her scalp for the scarring alopecia. They're going to monitor it to see if it works. If they can see hair growing in that area, they'll do more injections next time. She did okay with the one, but I'm not sure how she'll do with multiple shots at once.

Four days after that, we went downtown Seattle for a follow-up diagnostic appointment. They couldn't get clear images so they've decided to just do a biopsy. "We really don't know if it's needed, but just in case, let's do it." Then they explain the procedure as "difficult, painful, and lasting about 45 minutes."

I'm going to call them to see instead, about trying once more to get better images. Really praying about what we're supposed to do about all this.

Chuck hurt his back a couple weeks ago and started physical therapy this week.

I have been overseeing our room reservation system at work for more than 12 years. It's not supported anymore so for the last few months my boss and I have been learning a new program, and transferring all the data from the old to the new. Every room, every user, and every resource, (chairs, tables, tablecloths, cups, plates, napkins, stanchions, room dividers, sound tech) everything the admin might want for their events. 

Yesterday we had a zoom call with the company, and with the 13 admin who will use it for their departments. With set up, the zoom call itself, Q&A and lunch afterward, I was in there for four hours. By that point I was done! 

I've decided this weekend I'm not doing a thing! Maybe a load of laundry. And watching the game on Sunday. Seattle Seahawks are in the Superbowl! It's been exciting around this city lately.

Last Friday after Beth's appointment downtown, we decided we needed a little retail therapy.

She tried on some jean jackets but the sleeves were very long on one, and the other was just a little too small. And for some reason these didn't have working side pockets. That girl loves her pockets!

I'm sorry this is short but it's about all the energy I have for now. I've been reading your posts, but not always commenting. Hoping to get back to that soon. Have a great weekend. 

Breathe in.... and exhale. I've got to remember to do that!
