Catching up

Sorry we haven't posted in awhile. Just to let you know this is Allen making the post this time around. I don't post much because Amber loves to do it and tells it all anyway. Saturday we had some friends over (and Josh). We had a blast. We played guitar hero, poker, and apples to apples. Amber and Amy split the pot in poker because they had about the same amount of chips and the already long game would have took forever. I'm not sure but I think Amber has some pics. I'm sure she will post them asap.

Sunday we went over to the in-laws. We had BBQ beef sandwiches and Amber made her parmesan green bean casserole. Everything was awesome! Its always a treat to go over there. Its very relaxing.

Well I'm about one week away from my interveiw with General Mills. I'm both excited and nervous. This job would mean so much to our little family and would allow us to have a bigger one in the future. I hope everything goes well.

Some bad news today, I started my cluster headache cycle with searing pain at 4:00 am. If anyone wants to know what cluster headaches are Wikipedia has done a good job discribing them. The link is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_headache . I get what is known as episodic cluster headaches and it has been over a year since I got one. I had been noticing some signs that it was going to hit soon ie. popping and ringing of my right ear and some pressure that felt almost like a shadow. I think everything was just in order last night that made the "door open" : amount of sunlight changing rapidly, lots of stress (about jobs), hadn't had a cycle an awhile, food from super didn't settle (both of us had that issue), allergies at the max, and I got really hot last night with the comforter on. I am very thankful that I have went over a year without having one but this is some really bad timing for sure. I'm tough though and will make it through it.

Hope everything is going good with everyone. Love you all!
