2008 a year to forget?

Yikes! Looking back on this year has been tough. Here we are on anniversary number 5, I couldn't honestly say it was easy. This year has been tough on our marriage, a very testing time. In January I started seeing my Dr. and she decided to run quite a few tests on me. In February one of those tests can back abnormal, a big bad scary test. So I was sent to a specialist and was told it was just fibromyalgia, although Lupus could not be ruled out permanently. Well OK then. After that Michael lost his job at the bank, they are experiencing some financial trouble and I think he was the easiest to cut as they have other people who can do his job too. But he got an even better job within a week, a huge blessing. God saw to my prayers and I believe that his bank job might have ruined us financially and ruined our marriage so the change was welcomed. While I was sick and going through test after test alone while Michael was with the kids, I didn't even think about what Michael was going through watching me. He became a little lost. We were able to get him back on track mid year and have a renewed sense of us. So here we are on anniverdary number 5, and hopeful for a much better year number 6.
