Scars, Gazelles and Lots of Leave!

So here we are again. It's been way to long since I've posted on here. Sorry about that. Here's what you missed:

On feb 6th I had surgery on my spine. They fused three of my lower vertebrae together. It was my first surgery ever and the first time that I have ever been put to sleep via anesthesia. Man what a trippy experience. I remember being wheeled into the operating room at about 2pm and the next thing I know it's about 3:30 am and I'm in a completely different room with a nurse taking my vitals. I have two wicked awesome scars and I'm on quite the cocktail of narcotics. The best part, though, by far, is the fact that I'm using a walker. It is annoying to have to use one but I find it highly amusing at the same time.

Because of the surgery the put me on thirty days of convalescent leave. The doctor told me Thursday that he will probably extend my leave. It has been great to be home with my girls. It also makes me look forward to next year when I get out of the Army. I am proud to say I am in the Army but I look forward to getting back to some normalcy in life.

Speaking of normalcy in life, Rebekah and I are 4 weeks into financial peace university and we are learning a lot. It's great to be able to have hope that our future financial dreams will be able to come true. We are on baby step 2 which is getting debt free. I look forward to the near future of having no payments on anything. Gazelle intense baby!

So that's we're I am right now. Hope this new year is bringing around changes for the good my brothers and sisters. Until next time stay unashamed of the gospel! 1-1-SIX FOR LIFE!!!!!!
