Ok ok it isn’t that serious… but I do have a cold. UGH! I slept like crap last night and I really don’t have time to be sick though I guess it’s better that I’m sick now since Chris is going to Cali in 3 weeks and will be gone for 2 weeks. So better that I’m sick now so that I will be back to normal for when I’m playing single mom.
I have my 2nd physical therapy appt today. I don’t know if I ever wrote about it here but I found out that I have scoliosis a couple weeks ago. Before they put me in a brace they want to send me to physical therapy and see if that helps. I have appts all this month and into May so I guess we will see what happens. I have exercises to do at home but have yet to find the time to do them. I was going to do them yesterday while Nicholai was napping but instead I drove 2 hours away to get a book from Barnes and Noble for Chris cause he needed it for class. I went to a bigger Babies R Us and found some cute outfits for Nicholai and then drove about 1.5 hours to get back home with Nicholai screaming the whole way. It was a rough drive to say the least.
It dawned on my how little time we have left until Chris deploys…. shockingly I’m still not upset… just realizing that it is creeping up on us. I don’t think Chris realizes how soon it is coming either… we aren’t doing anything different, spending more time together, he still plays video games a lot… it’s like same old same old here. Bleh.
Nicholai is going to be 8 months old on Sunday…. I can’t believe it. He is standing without help now for 10+ seconds and holding his own balance. I can’t believe it… I have a feeling that he is going to be walking soon… crazy.
Gross, my whole head feels swollen. I hope this cold doesn’t last long.
Well Nicholai is going to be waking up from his nap soon so I think I’m going to relax for the last 30min of his nap cause once he wakes up I have to nurse him and then get him and the cat in the car because Aurora has a vet appt today at 4. Then I go to physical therapy at 6. Then I get a break…. until I make dinner lol. A mommy/wifes work is never ending lol
… don’t be afraid, sometimes they come true! 
… music is my life

ryn: in my next entry i will write all about what happened as to where my back pain came from. and dont feel bad for not knowing, i never once wrote anything specific about it, i guess because i didnt want it to run my life and have it be the ONLY thing i focus on. but now i realize that its not going anywhere and its time to face it head on, and tell the world. i realize i cant do this alone.

and p.s. when i read about your diagnosis on FB, it made me feel so much more connected to you, (i hope thats not freaky, haha) and your bravery to tell the world, inspired me. i suppose i never caught on to the fact that you were suffering from pain as well, i dont know if i just somehow missed reading it, or what. but again, learning that about you, and looking at all that you have done…(cont)

namely becoming a mom, and still being able to do it, even alone sometimes (when your hunny deploys), gives me SOOO much hope for the future. cause that is what terrifies me most about all this… i just want to be pregnant and be a good mom, but it worries me with the stress it will put on my back… i will go more into this soon in an entry. but thank you sooo much for the support…

…it means THE WORLD to me. thank you! i know Cali will take care of your hunny, and send him home soon, maybe a bit tanner? haha i hope the time before the deployment goes soooo pain-stakingly slow, and then the time he is gone just flies by! if you need any other distractions, i heard i can be pretty entertaining. haha. i cant believe your baby is 8 months already! thank you again, love, m.
