yep...it's come to this

After blogging for a year…I’m finding it increasingly harder & harder to find anything of value to write about these days – as I’m sure you can tell.

And while yes, it is slightly humorous to see my big 125 lb. Bullmastiff grazing in our backyard like a big Moo Cow – is it anything worth blogging about?

No, not really.

I’ve hit a wall lately. I’m not feeling very creative, funny or even mildly interesting.

Maybe it’s because I feel like I’m at a crossroad with this whole ‘some-ting’ in my brain bit.

Next week I head back up to Seoul for another MRI.

The doctors have essentially called it quits on the testing process & have moved into “monitor mode”.

And depending on what the MRI shows….

well, I don’t know.

If it turns out there’s more lesions, I guess I keep heading down the same path I’ve been on.

If it’s the same?…What then?

Do I give up looking for an answer, too?

Sorry to get so deep…it’s just been weighing on me lately.

I’ve put my life on hold waiting for an answer – an answer that apparently isn’t coming.

And I feel stuck in place trying to work it out:

my brain + ‘some-ting’ = what?

    I know you are being serious but Jen, come on! You left that equation WIDE open and you do have friends who will answer! :)

    Seriously, continuing to pray. I am sure this is so frustrating! Remember, you stay on top of your health and being persistent about chasing it down — no one else will do so.

  2. Well, I think you are doing fine with your postings. If I had all those things medically that you do, I probably wouldn’t be able to string two words together! Could you please update us on how you are feeling physically? Are your headaches still present? If so ,are they as bad as before? Take care of yourself, and know that there are many people who care about you; not only your family and friends, but persons such as I who know you solely by your blog. I have become invested in your life through your writings and care what happens to you and Eric. GOD BLESS!

    I know you are dreading starting over with new Dr., but sometimes with newness comes fresh ideas and learning. You know you are in God’s hands and in the prayers of a gazillion people, and you will be taken care of. Just keep us updated!

    As far as the writing goes, I’ve enjoyed your stuff. It has been fresh and fun, not to mention delicious!

    Love you.

    I too struggle with finding blogging topics (and time to write/post). When I stall I think about the blogs I like to visit and the things they talk about. Usually this is everyday stuff that, to them, must seem incredibly mundane while as a reader it is fresh and new. Your blog is very different in that you write about army life/family, dogs, and Korea in addition to sharing a little about yourself. As a reader in Oregon, all of these are refreshing topics. I suspect the difficulty is, as you alredy said, more about the ‘some-ting’ since it is preoccupying your own mind; making it difficult to consider writing about anything else. If it helps, as a reader who is not part of your immediate family/friend circle, I would find it interesting to know a bit more abour your guys military background; more of the beginning stuff. It’s a life I hear about and yet know nothing about. Just a thought and no pressure, I really enjoy your blog and getting to know you. {{hugs}}

    ….and by ‘alredy’ I meant ‘already.’ I swear I can spell. Sheesh!!!!

    Keep your spirits high, girly! I am not going through the same thing that you are but I can relate. Stop thinking so much and just live!!!

So What Do You Think?
