Moving Forward

I am excited for this weekend! I am looking forward to Tommy's surprise 40th birthday party! He has no idea... at least I think he has no idea. I have invited all of his close friends and we are having it at Kevin Goudie's home. Tom loves it there... they have a fireplace on the back porch and a lot of space to just be! I have already ordered his cake and the food and his gift! I just need to get the drinks, the beer, and the misc. items. I have already worked it out with his boss to be off Saturday evening and Sunday morning! I assuming that he will want to sleep in a little on Sunday after such a big party the evening before!

Also, Tom and I are actively pursuing having a baby! I have started taking hormones to regulate my cycle, and will start clomid in May. After turning 35 this month, it just sort of hit me that I want a family, and part of that family be a baby! I am working hard to have firm control over my blood sugar. I have been doing better this week, and I am grateful for that. I may have to go on insulin to get better control though. If that's what it takes, that's what I am willing to do. I have tried to use the treadmill more, however, it has been really difficult since I have had such an abnormal period.

I have bleed severely and heavily for 8 straight days, not to mention the clots that I have been passing. I know... great conversation topic, right! But it's where I am at. I called the dr. on Monday and he scheduled me for a pelvic and transvaginal ultrasound. The ultrasound showed nothing out of the ordinary - Thank God! So, I suppose that I will just have to wait this period out!! However, we are finishing day 10, and I am really tired of heating pads, maxi pads, and advil!

I have been off of work the past two days and am looking forward to getting back to the swing of things tomorrow. So, now that it is almost 11:30, I think I will sign off and get to sleep!

Oh, I almost forgot! I am on Spring Break for the next two weeks!!! Woo-Hoo! I have completed 4 classes now, one intro course, and 3 courses for grades! I have earned an A, an A-, and the grade for the last class hasn't posted yet! Actually, I am going to check that before bed to see if it has posted!

Have a great night! :)
