Wow, it has been a long time...December, I think.

Sorry for the absence, not sure why I have not posted in several months. Honestly I think I got bored and felt as though I had nothing to write. I have been keeping up with friends blogs but let ours go to waste. Anyway, here is a little update on things in our world. Obviously we moved back to Oklahoma in November and although we miss our friends and family down there we are happy to be home.

Andy is currently working for a counseling clinic in downtown OKC and also with me at the church medical clinic where I was before we moved. I am working at the church doing individual counseling mostly for children, adolescents, and 20 somethings. I am also working at the children's hospital that I worked at for my internship back in the day doing counseling for the children there with major medical issues and acute trauma such as car accidents, house fires, etc. I am so excited to be back there, it has been my dream that the day would come when they needed me, and it has finally come!

We recently got a little puppy named Ike, he is a malti-poo (man, I feel like a dork when I say that). He was named after Hurricane Ike that occurred while we were down in Texas. He got his name because he was "hunkered down," yes my friends, hunkered down. This is what the news people in Texas kept telling everyone to do during the Hurricane and we thought it was hilarious, so when we saw Ike for the first time he was the only puppy lying down and all the others were running circles around him...it was just a perfect hunker down so we had to name him after that. He is adorable and is about four months old now. He looks just like a mini polar bear and although he is teething, he is just too cute!

So, over all things are going great for the Moore's! We are loving life and doing really well. My health is doing much better and continues to improve each month. I feel as though life is much easier when I am able to wash my own hair and go to the bathroom on my own...it's like I am my own person again, YAY!!! My infusions are still every four weeks and they are working wonders. I am still taking the Methotrexate every Saturday night and it still makes me feel like I have the flu but I am barly taking my pain medication and have cut it in half again, which is truly exciting in my world.

Anyway, I think that is about as short and concise as I can get in a little blog post. Hope this finds everyone doing well and healthy!
