back to reality

Hello everybody!
I am back in Iowa safe and sound. Extremely grateful for the outcome of my surgery and with hopes for better health from now on. The time for moving in to my new apartment is coming way too fast, and I am hardly prepared to do so. Plus, I haven't even started to pack at all. Right now I am concerned on my health and that my wound heals quick. On Wednesday I have an appointment with my doctor here in Ames to remove the stitches. The surgeon said I could do it myself but I am sort of a coward when it comes to these things. I'd rather have someone else do it.

Now, back to reality. I need to finish some projects for a class I'm taking. Moving is also a priority, but my class is more important. Mom is here, and she has been great in helping me get stuff for my new place.

I have no way of thanking all of you for the support you've given me and the love you have shown throughout these 2 years. I have no idea what I would've done without it.
Thanks a lot and receive a big hug from me!
Laura
