Phase 3 - The Stabilizing Period

Why Couldn't She Have At Least Called?

Yup, Aunt Flo is paying me a visit, absolutely no call ahead or nothing. Sure, the 'girls' were hurting a bit over the last few days, but that could gave been something else. But NOOOOO, it had to be Aunt Flo, well that just isn't right ya know?

I am sure that she just wanted to come by and knock the wind out of my sails, surely she is that sinister. Making me come down off my high horse of mega losses for two weeks, just to teach me a lesson. The .2 loss (I know, I know, ANY LOSS IS A GOOD LOSS) is directly a result of her visit. Well BE GONE AUNT FLO! Me thinks you are not welcomed here.

Shoot, I wish it was that easy. I wish I could just wave my hands and she be gone, but alas, I have to live with it.

Point is that she was JUST HERE, Jan 13th - 19th - why does she feel that she needed to pay me another visit this quickly??? Could it be cycles are struggling to get regulated - my body is really trying to get into a rhythm instead of the haphazardness that has been my life since giving birth? If so, I will take it. Being 'regular' will be a whole lot better than all over the map!!!

Anyhoo, so this is my day - me and Aunt Flo - send good thoughts.

I MADE MY GOAL!!!

I know, we have already chatted about that a few days ago, but today I made my goal, today is my two week anniversary of the 4th round, and I have made my goal. I am still going on, the rest is just GRAVY!!!

Thank You So Much!!!

I would like to send a collective thank you for everyone for their eMails and comments for the loss that was suffered over the weekend. I spent a few hours there yesterday just doing 'busy' work, and my husband took the widower out along with his best friend for some coffee and chit chat. Each day will be rough, but each day they make it through is one more day behind them and a chance to heal.

Thank you Lili, Shelly, Marshall, Ed & Jenn, Mary, CB, EweWho, Crystal, Monica and Mariel for your beautiful thoughts - you folks are all the mostest. Wow.
