I feel like I have been going non stop the past 2 week and I am more than excited for a break. We have absolutely NOTHING planned. While I'm sure that will change there are a couple things I'm looking forward to.
Like sleeping in. While I love being busy I don't sleep well during the week. My dreams are too vivid for sleep to be restful. For example- a couple nights ago in my dreams Josh and I renewed our vows, then after that I was part of the Australian Mountain Biking team....
So on this long weekend, I'm going to sleep! And yes, I'm thanking Uncle Sam for giving me President's Day off, so I get a 3 day weekend. Oh wonderful sleep, here I come.....
I'm looking forward to snuggling with my hubby. He just bought Skyfall (the newest James Bond) and I am excited to have a movie night, relax, maybe have some popcorn, and watch this really good movie. (And if you haven't seen it, you really should. Much different from any other James Bond every filmed.)
I have been really touched by all of the kind responses I've gotten from y'all since I've started going to the support group. I'm going to continue to go, and to also use this blog as my voice. Maybe even strengthen others who are going or have gone through infertility. Here are some quotes that I found that totally sum up my feelings or are thought provoking. One of them especially struck me. Growing up, we all had preconceived notions of how our lives were going to turn out. I know my life is very different from how I thought it would be. I always wanted to be a mom. In my early twenties, I decided kids could wait and I wanted to be a career girl, travel the globe, and experience everything that I could. When I met Josh, my dreams changed. I wanted a career still, but only for a while. I started to think about having a family, being a mom, and my career picking back up when the kids went to school. Reality has a different idea. I'm in my late twenties and I'm a career girl. Haven't traveled too much. I still have a lot of time to experience everything I want to, I'm just impatient. I need to learn to enjoy the journey along the way....
Hope you enjoy the quotes!
