Today we got some very good news! My biopsy results came back negative - I do not have Thyroid cancer and do not need surgery!! Such great news and truly an answer to prayer.

We also met with one of the office people at our apartment complex and we can move into a one bedroom next month and save about $400 a month in rent! Fabulous. So, my list of stressors has shrunk down to one thing: Dissertation. Ugh, it feels like a bad word right now. Here is a quote about procrastination found on www.ronisweigh.com that I found very appropriate:

“Don’t think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It’s self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can’t try to do things. You simply must do things.” -Ray Bradbury

Basically, I think too much (so does Roni of ronisweigh.com). I am having trouble with my dissertation because there is a part of me that thinks I can't do it. Well, I'm going to prove that piece of me wrong!

"You’ve come too far in life to take orders from a cookie!" ~Stephen Gullo

I love it, I stole it from www.ronisweigh.com in Roni's archives. I love Roni and the toddler! Anyway, I thought this was hilarious because sometimes I do take orders from a cookie (or ice cream), I let them tell me when to eat and what to eat rather than making my own decisions. I mean, heck, I am about a month from a PhD and one little cookie gives me orders. LOL.

On a more serious note, today I had my "fine needle aspiration" aka biopsy. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, it hurt when they numbed me up but other than that no pain. Right now my neck is a little sore and have a stellar bandaid over the spot where they poked me. I should know in 6 days what the results are and if I'm going to have surgery.
