An everything update!

Hope's botox has been pushed off to the 15th and we are still waiting for insurance approval. The specialist we were suppose to see has been denied by insurance. Ugh! Gotta love insurance! Hope has been officially diagnosed with ADHD and has started medicine. Here's hoping it works! The nice part, a side effect of the pill is insomnia. So where's the nice part you ask, she gets sleeping pills!!!! For any of you that truly know Hope, you know that sleeping is a constant issue. It is so nice to see her wake up without bags under her eyes. I finally spoke with her Special Ed coordinator at school today. They are working on accommodations for her AIMS (spelling?) testing and other school work. I also sent them a script from the psychologist stating that she has ADHD and insurance will not cover Dyslexia testing. So hopefully the school will send us somewhere to get a learning disability diagnosis. I think that is all on Hope for now.
School for me is CRAZY!!! I had a pop quiz on day 2, a final exam on Thursday which will be a presentation, a paper due on Monday, working on a second 10 minute presentation due next month, ugh! After this final I have medical terminology which we will complete in 2 weeks. Yes, another final. I have at least one final every month. We finally saw the lab yesterday. It is awesome!! I can't wait until we are spending more time in there. Next week I adjust to scrub life! Thanks to Rachel I found the most comfortable scrubs on the planet. I may never go back to real clothes for work! My next 18 months are in a blue polo, khaki scrub pants, white tennis shoes without mesh, hair up, unpolished nails, no jewelry and a thermal top under the polo. I love it though! I feel like an adult, my vocabulary is expanding and my brain is trying to explode in my head! I could go without the 70 pound backpack though! Hope was excited to see that Mommy received a coloring book for school! I had to go buy colored pencils. Ha! Almost 30 and I'm buying colored pencils in the kid isle for myself! (anatomy coloring book) 2010 is proving to be a life altering year! In a good way! Here's hoping my 6'2" husband comes walking through the door! (Still single, class options are not appealing!)
Thank you everyone for your continued support! I hope everyone is having a wonderful new year!
