Tuesday already!

and I have done nothing and I mean nothing. I don't think I am adapting well to this empty house but I am sure it will come. I am sure as heck not use to cooking for only 2 and TX supermarkets are most definitely not geared towards shopping for 2!

This weekend went surprisingly fast, probably because we went to a small back to school party on Friday and then on Saturday, my eldest daughter came home to celebrate Alan's birthday.

The party was interesting because I hadn't seen anyone at the party for at least 2 yrs. It was an Expat party, so most of the wives know each other through our husbands who work at Freescale (was Motorola). It was interesting because most of our lives were going the same way as they were 2 yrs ago, so apart from the fact the kids we have, are growing up, it was almost as if the last 2 yrs had not existed.

I am the first to be child free and to honest, in room full of screaming teenagers and under 10's I am glad I am child free! Its amazing how your brain can obliterate certain things and times from your memory but I was thinking to myself, I am sure my kids weren't as loud and wearisome as this lot, surely not. However, the realist in me, knows they must have been but I was oblivious to it at the time.

Anyway it was good to catch up with people again and makes me realise I must make more of an effort to go out more. I am becoming the hermit of Pflugerville, maybe I should rename my blog that.

My biopsy results have back as the doctor suspected with no definite diagnosis as I had an ablation in 2004, so hopefully the sonargram will illuminate what the problem is. Actually I know what the problem is, adenomysosis as I have already had that diagonsis and the only treatment, apart from menopause, that is effective is a hysterectomy. If I had known before my ablation that I had adenomysosis I would taken the hysterectomy option then but it usually only discovered after a hysterectomy as it usually cannot be seen by any type of imaging machine. In a way I was lucky it was discovered at my ablation but then again it must have been pretty bad to have been picked up that way. Anyway no doubt in 2 wks time I will be given the option of a hysto and this time I will probably take it. Trouble is it takes at least 6 wks to recover with no lifting in that time. We will see.

One thing I must do get the records from my previous gynaecologist to give to my new one. My brain just doesn't process information about my reproductive organs. Up to my 45th yr I never had problems with them, so I never kept track of them. They came and went with their regular cycles, giving out signals they were approaching like over tiredness the day before, so I never needed a calendar as some people do. So when the doc asks me questions about my cycles I can only give vague recollections, I am sure they think that is weird but I only notice when things are going wrong, like constant cramps I have never had before suddenly appear, sore and swollen breasts appear from nowhere, that when I stand up and take notice.
