Dizzy spells.

By -
I am going to make an appointment tomorrow. I have been extremely dizzy all day. I'm not really sure what is going on with me, but I'm slightly concerned it might be my blood pressure or possibly even my ears (they've been bothering me a little bit). I guess it could be my salt as well (I know in the past when you have left the doctors all knew you were gone because of my diet- and I don't cook with salt quite as much as you do). Long story short, I'm dizzy, sitting down, standing up, even laying down.

Cindy brought me some milk and soup today. Soup because I'm having an extremely difficult time eating. I tried to stay awake and wait for her, but I guess the commissary was crazy (payday before Thanksgiving!) and I fell asleep. Never heard her come in or anything, when I went downstairs there was milk in the fridge and soup on the counter. I was so grateful.

Autumn has been super sweet today. She has been loving on me and letting me just lay around (for the most part). She did bonk me over the head with her magnadoodle when she wanted more milk and a new diaper. Anyway, I don't think it is anything very serious, but I'd like to be on the safe side and just have the doctor check my blood pressure and look in my ears. I will let you know how it goes.

I love you and promise to take some photos for you tomorrow.

Your Favorite Wife and Airman. xoxo

The Count: 14 days.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
