A Bumpy But Beautiful Ride

Hello all,
 Since I had such a "Debby Downer" post yesterday I wanted to share good news today! First, thank you to everyone who has sent in their support, that alone is more uplifting than can be imagined.
Last night I had my pity party, and it was DELICIOUS! I enjoyed a fabulous pumpkin beer and a piece of tiramisu after the baby's bedtime by myself on the couch while watching trash tv! What a perfect pity party evening. I decided that I would wake up to tackle the world today and that I did!
We started our morning at Portsmouth Naval Hospital for my breast ultrasound. Let me just start by saying, I'm not Portsmouth's biggest fan but their mammography department has it together! I called yesterday and got an appointment today. I went in and was seeing my ultrasound and a doctor telling me what was going on at my appointment time! So, here are the results.... Good news!!!! The lumps are just hills in the dense breast tissue, no tumors or masses to be concerned about! I've never been so excited to say I'm lumpy!
And just like bad things, good things happen in 3's if you look for them! Today Emily and I were finally, 6 weeks in the making, cleared for our overseas medical screenings! What a weight off of our shoulders. And finally, we received emails that our Visa paperwork is being processed by the UK Embassy and should, fingers crossed, be completed in 8 business days!
Hopefully those near and dear to me know that for the most part I can pull it together and see the good in the day to day, yesterday was not the norm. I appreciate the open floor for my pity party and am thankful that I have so much good in my life that I can pull myself out from the shadows! Love to all!
