This  is my Thanksgiving and christmas update this year.  I haven't had time to spare, so hence- no update.  Life has been and really insanely busy, yet insanely wonderful.   We have really been enjoying every minute, of work, school, winter, love, marriage, every thing. !!!   Maybe I am so positive becuase a couple of hours ago we just got back from a two night/day anniversary trip.. It was a much needed, much deserved, wonderful time away.  SO I am feeling very in love with Joe, and feeling like i am spoiled to have such a lovely husband.  

    Any way right its Christmas Eve and we arehaving a lovely christmas vacation. Joe has been off school since The 9th, and he has  been working some, which I am very thankful for, He has off till Jan. 5.  We are spending some wonderful long evening together and treasuring these times, before he gives every ounce of his energy into studying once again.  He is loving his studies and doing very well.  Makes me wish i could go to school, i love any thing medical, and love to study every thing he is studying too.

   I am working alot so that keeps me occupied, and I try really hard to enjoy what I am doing and not to get discouraged.  But I do work with fun people, and am building good relationships with them. People are so important, and so wonderful. If you want to spend time wisely, spend it investing in some ones life, it will never be wasted.

 I am still dealing with at lot of pain with my back, so Joe and I are spending a lot of time praying about it and wondering what to do next, so if you think about me and want to send a prayer heavenward for me I'd be grateful.  I hope to see a Physical Therapist this week and am praying that is the answer we are looking for.....

Any way, Merry christmas and lots of Love to all.... Leah

Its my hubby, he's a nurse, or (is going to be)

I am so serious.... I need all the prayers I can get right now!! I am dying of a back ache.... Stupidly, self inflicted. But now I am miserable.  The plan is this... we are moving tomorrow... no buts, if's or anything else plans are set in stone... so I have been incredible busy this week, organizing, packing, planning.... I think I am ready to have this all over with.... Yesterday in a crazy spare moment I decided to try to take Joes motorcycle for a ride... but some where along the line of trying to get it started it fell over.  I tried to lift it up... but as I squated down and tried to lift. I felt a horrible pop or tear in my right hip, I have been in serious pain ever since... I spent my entire morning in tears.  I went to the chiropractor and he said he couldn't do anything becuase it is too swollen and tight. He told me to go home lay on ice all weekend and come back next week. its awful.  So I really feel your desperate need of prayer, I need healing so I can actually function tomorrow.  I have so much to do.  I told mom if she gets me a little motorized cot I can dictate from that.    I actually can stand ok, and I can lay just fine... its the sitting that kills, my legs ache, and toes go numb.  Anyway I am not very happy and I wonder why now... so I plead for your prayers. I know God can work miracles and I know he has my life planned perfectly... it'll have a good ending, if I can endure today.
