9 weeks down, 215 days to go.....

I can't believe that I'm over 9 weeks along! My husband and I are very excited about our upcoming bundle and just can't refrain from telling people. So, it's official, we are starting to tell more people now, because I'm almost 10 weeks and it's safe to say that things will continue progress normally.

And for the most part, this pregnancy has been normal, for those women who get to enjoy the morning sickness at all hours of the day. I continue to fight my battle with food and finding something that won't make me sick. I'm so nervous that people are work are going to start thinking that I'm bulimic! After every meal, run to the bathroom. Feel like crap for a few hours then feel hungry again! I try to eat as healthy as possible, but nothing at this point even tastes good....except fried food! The warm juices of a hamburger dripping down my throat just makes me sit in pure calmness. Now ask me in 10 minutes how I feel and it will be a different story. My new favorite thing right now is boneless buffalo wings/chicken. The mildly spicy buffalo sauce sears the lips just for a moment, then pure bliss when you dip the wing into the cool ranch dressing, followed by a crisp celery stick. Absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G So, as you can tell, I haven't been eating healthy lately but at least I'm getting my protein right?!?

We put our house on the market a few weeks ago and have had a few showings, but no offers. I would love to get this house sold and move into something bigger with more living space. Don't get me wrong, I love where we live now, but I'm ready for a change and ready for more space. And I'm ready to not have to eat out all the time so we don't make a mess in the kitchen the night before a showing.

Other than being nauseous and throwing up from time to time things have been going well. I'm starting to get tired, but I just started working full shifts again. Before this I would only work a day or so then have 5 days off before I would work again. It's nice getting back into a routine, but after 4 days of 12 hour shifts I'm ready for some R & R. One of my partners let me borrow a few movies, so while the hubby is hard at work this weekend, I will be camping out in front of the tv watching, "Saturday Night Fever," "Stayin' Alive" and "Into the Wild."

Happy Friday everyone!!!

Infertility

So once again I attempt to start my blog on weight loss. However, I've entered a new chapter in my life. Babies. Well not quite yet, but we'll get there. Here's some history..... I was diagnosed with endometriosis in March of 2010, only 3 months after getting married. I had a laparoscopy and had 5-6 different areas. I continued treatment with birth control overlapping each month and when that didn't seem to help the symptoms I started on Lupron. For those of you that are familiar with this product you can attest to its wonderfulness as well as its downfalls. The Lupron put my body into menopause at the age of 24 :) Fun Fun fun!!!! On the first round of shots I did not have a hormone replacement pill which I wish I would have. I had shots every month for 3 months then took a break. In June I had a 3 month dose of Lupron again. The pain continued and I had a second laparoscopy with a tubular dye study in September, and here we are. Our game plan...... My OB/GYN wants to t...

God only gives you what you can handle

Where do I begin. This summer has been the best of any summer I can remember, besides the summer going into my senior year at Concordia. That was an epic summer I'll never forget. But this summer, was one for the books, in so many ways. For one, this was the first time I have had a break from school in 365 days. I took every opportunity and enjoyed my days off, not online submitting papers or reading a text book. Summer school ended at the end of June, and I pulled off 2 B's and an A.  I've always said that you meet people in your life for a reason, and I truly believe that. Over the last year I have met countless people. At different times I have questioned their motivation, but I also have embraced the opportunity to find out what their purpose is to me. Whether people stay in your life or leave, there is always a lesson learned. And then, there are those moments when you meet people and you know right away, that they will have an impact on your life, and in a goo...

Breakable

 If you've followed this blog since it's inception, you know that music, and music lyrics speak to my soul. I think I have had three playlists on repeat the last few weeks. I know is has almost been an entire year since my post on here, but I've also switched gears and started a new blog Behind These Blue Eyes , where I discuss my Long Covid diagnosis, treatments I've tried, and the road to recovery....or at least finding my new normal. Other than the year I got  divorced, this last year has been the most difficult I've ever experienced. From jobs, to relationships, to life, and to health. I really thought the whole dating thing was over for me. I had accepted my independence, the freedom to make choices for me and me alone, and with how unenergetic I had been feeling, how did I really have time anyway for a relationship. Things happen when you least expect them....and I fell fast. Faster than I had ever before. It was too good to be true. I kept telling myself that...
