How was your weekend?
Ours has been great!
My BFF had her baby early Sat. am. I'm beyond ecstatic for them. Her DH had cancer when he was younger, and they weren't even sure they'd be able to have children.
My sister and her husband came to visit.
And the best part of the weekend - a successful go at getting Zoey off the paci!!!!
So lets live in weekend bliss a few more hours by taking time to share our weekend high points. Ready...Go!
Re: How was your weekend?
I had kind of a rough weekend. I'm taking estrogen for the upcoming IVF and it's giving me really horrible headaches. I have to be on it for about 3 more weeks. It also makes me kind of anxious and I'm kind of a type A anyway, so I've been worrying about things a lot. I also sliced my finger down to the bone last night while I was making dinner. My head hurt so badly that I couldn't bear to go get it stitched so I've been nursing it along hoping I don't get infection.
The GOOD news is that all this won't last forever and anything that I'm enduring right now is nowhere close to the pain that the couple I'm helping has endured over the past 7 years.
I got to have lunch with my besties on Saturday & took Z with me. Those are the best social occasions -- getting to enjoy friends AND family! DH & I attended a surprise birthday party that night while Z stayed home with DH's parents, so that was also good. Then we had a birthday dinner for my BIL last night. Overall, it was a very social weekend for us!
I'm feeling a bit panicked lately about completing the class I'm taking this semester (Anyone here an expert on lit reviews & action research in education? I'm SO behind on this!)...and getting some projects in our house finished...and figuring out what I'm really doing with my life/career... I keep trying to take it day by day, but sometimes I just can't help but feel overwhelmed. The commute is taking a toll on me. I miss having a bit of time to "catch up" during lunch hours, right before/after work, etc. Okay, enough whining
