Brittany did well in the County Track and Field Championships. She was awarded medals in two events, placing in the top 8 in the 4 x 800 and the 3200m. We were so proud of what she accomplished, especially in that cold, blustery weather! I don't know how she does it!
Here she is after the start of the 4 x 800...
She was on a mission to bring home some more hardware!
Three days ago, Chris had an upper GI endoscopy. We got so aggravated because they told us to be there at 10 AM. Well, he didn't get called back until almost 11 AM. Thankfully, his procedure took less than an hour. He was so funny when I went back to see him in recovery. He kept saying over and over, again..."Those are some GOOD drugs." I think he meant every word of it, too! :) Why didn't I think to make a video of him with my cell phone? Talk about some good blackmail material! His doctor told us that he has a moderate to severe case of acid reflux and that the lining of his esophagus and stomach were severely inflamed. He thinks it might be due to the H-Pylori bacteria, so he took a biopsy to find out. We should get the results in about a week. Apparently, it's the main cause of stomach and esophageal cancer. My understanding is that if he tests positive for the bacteria, I will need to be tested, too. A round of antibiotics over a two-week period is the usual course of treatment.On Tues., our realtor held a luncheon at our house for local realtors. We had to be gone for 3 hours. She had about a dozen realtors stop by and they all gave positive feedback about our house. They said the only downfall is the road we live on, which can be quite busy. We're just trying to stay positive and trust that the right folks will come along soon.
Tomorrow is Chris' birthday, as well as Good Friday. The girls are on Spring Break all next week, so we're jumping in the car and heading down to Orlando for some fun at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. We wanted to do something special for the girls since the school year is rapidly coming to a close. Abby is mega-excited! That's all she's been talking about for the last week or so! I'll be sure to take lots of pictures to share with all of you! Let's just hope that I live to tell about it! As you may recall, I am not a big fan of roller coasters, by my family INSISTS that I ride them! Oh, no...I'm in BIG TROUBLE! :) Sorry to say...but this one will most likely be a NO-GO!
Unfortunately, I probably won't be posting, again, until my girls go back to school after Spring Break ends. I know I haven't been too good about visiting all of you lately, but I hope you understand that this is a very busy time for me. I'm trying to juggle everything at once! Please don't forget about me while I'm away...I, for sure, won't forget about you! Have a BLESSED Easter!
