This morning I realized that I won’t be making this drive to work much longer.  I’m starting to begin thinking about what all I’ll miss when I move to Small Town, Oregon.  The people I care about the most are really excited for me.  That helps make me excited.  That and all of the good things I’ve been finding in my small town.  For example, we get the Style Network.  I LOVE the Style Network.  Especially that show with Niecy Nash.  There’s also the Farmer’s Market.  Ours is so pathetic that it’s held in the parking lot of a deli.  Small Town, Oregon has a huge one.  And I’m only a few hours from Portland.  Now while most folks may frown upon driving a few hours; realize that I used to drive 4 hours EACH WAY to Dallas in one day just to go shopping.  Hell I drove 8 hours to Houston to see a man once.  So you KNOW I’ll drive to Portland with a cooler and some ice to experience that big ass farmer’s market.  I’m really excited about that.  Then there’s the hiking, white water rafting, and skiing.  Yeah…I’m excited.  AND THERE’S AN EMPLOYEE DISCOUNT AT THE GYM!  So I can get back on track.  Wanna know another perk?  I’m not even the least little bit scared of learning my way around. LOL  Come on….it’s Small Town, Oregon.  One road goes through the whole town and it sits right off of I-5.  That’s an open door for all kinds of exploration.

I just realized that I might need to pack my “special box” in my suitcase and take it with me.

I’ve been researching birth control pills lately.  The amazing thing though is that no one I’ve asked so far has ever taken them.  I really thought more people had.  Someone posed the question to me the other day asking what I planned to do when I got married.  So I decided to look into the options.  Let me tell y’all something…..the pill doesn’t sound too damn appealing to me.  Some people have doubts about not having a cycle every month but I’ve actually read medical research that says not having a cycle every month decreases a woman’s chances of cancer in the lining of her uterus or ovaries.  The problem you ask?  THE RISKS!

• bleeding between periods
• breast tenderness
• headache
• nausea
• change in sexual desire
• depression

The most serious complication of combination pill use is having a blood clot in the legs, lungs, heart, or brain. Women on the combination pill who have major surgery or who have a leg immobilized — because they are confined to bed or have a cast — seem to have a greater chance of having blood clots. Rarely, women who take the combination pill develop high blood pressure. Very rarely, they develop liver tumors, gallstones, or jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes).

Here’s an article to check out. 

So without pills what are your options?  Cause y’all know I am NOT down for a change in desire.  Not even a little bit.

So that’s a little bit of what’s on my mind today.  Moving, television, and birth control pills.

Have a great weekend!
