where we are….

So life has been good for us…I know it has been a terribly long time since I have blogged, but I kinda forgot I had a page :). SOOOO whats new with us…Will has gotten a new job…he is doing development (fundraising) for student affairs at UO. He is loving it…he has already exceeded his goal for the year which is fantastic! I told him not to set the bar too high, because they will always expect him to meet it!

I started a new job in January at Oregon State University, in the College of Veterinary Medicine. I really love what I am doing, it is  a much better change of pace from my previous job, where I was being micromanaged to the nth degree. It was miserable. This new job gives me a lot of autonomy. Which is good!

What else is new with us, well a few months ago in February. Will and I were in a car accident.  It was Wills fault, but we were both ok. Or so we thought….I a few days after the crash I started having migraines, long story short, i have had a headache every day since then. Its going on 3 months of  constant headache. Its miserable. I had an MRI, and it shows that I have a blown disc at C3, which is the most probable cause for all my continued migraines.  There pretty much is not a day that goes by that I am not in terrible, debilitating pain from this injury. Of course we can't pinpoint the accident as the cause, but its interesting that its gotten so terrible.  I have been going to PT…its not really working. At this point I think I may have the surgery to feel better. I am in so much pain I just want to feel better. I will do anything at this point to feel better.

In baby news…Will and I are going on 5 years of trying to have a baby…i am not going to lie this has been incredibly frustrating. you see everyone around you getting pregnant, and it all seems so easy to them. They start trying and behold they get pregnant a few months later. It has been incredibly frustrating and disappointing to try and try each month and for nothing to happen. We went to an adoption info session a few weeks ago…we are considering the next steps but don't know yet if we want to do it. We have tried a few times with IUI, which have been unsuccessful. I have gone some times of extreme depression, but then I remember that God will take  care of us and when we  are supposed to be parents, then it will be.   I just pray that we get to start our family soon.   I know that I have so much love to share with a child/children.  Please pray for us that our hearts will be blessed with a child!

Not much else to report…I will try to be more diligent with keeping up with my blog! :)
