For some happier updates on my life, Josh got his stitches removed! He is healing up and looking as handsome as ever. I'm so glad his cyst was removed before it ever became a real problem. He'll have the bandage for a few days and then by this time next year he'll only be left with a faint little scar, if anything. I love when he dresses up and wears his glasses! :D
My stomach has been all over the place. I'm currently thinking it's on the up and up, fingers crossed that's true! I went to the Doctors last week and they took blood and had me leave some digestive "samples" (for lack of a less tmi word here) for them to look at. The samples came back all clean, and I should be hearing back about the blood work on Tuesday. I'm really hoping this resolves itself because I want to get to enjoy holiday foods when I'm in CT for the holidays! In the meantime I've been sticking to safe foods and eating lots of Chobani. It hasn't been aggravating my stomach and I'm loving the mango flavor.
I didn't think kale would aggravate my stomach but then I went and ate an entire batch-ful. Kale chips are just too good to resist! I promised Josh that when we live together and have a dehydrator I'll make these all the time for us. They're one of my favorite snacks.
I got to add this adorable ornament to my parent's tree! I participated in a fun ornament swap over at Just Keep Sweating. I was paired with Diana, one of Caryln's real-life friends. We are so alike it is freaky, it was so much fun getting to know her and getting to go ornament shopping for her. She picked out the perfect ornament for me, I can't wait to start a penguin ornament collection with Josh!
Speaking of shopping, did I luck out on the most amazing denim deals at T.J.Maxx this weekend. I love my T.J.Maxx in Williamsport but the one in State College is the treasure trove of designer goods. I've been needing new jeans badly, like I've been living in Wunder Unders and leggings when my one pair of jeans are in the hamper badly. I found a pair of great fitting Paige jeans and two pairs of Joes Jeans all for less than the price of one pair of these jeans at a department store. I also found a super cute Vince sweater and a BCBG shirt. It was a very happy shopping day.
