We have been having some amazing weather. It's been really hard for me to study when all I want to do is be outside. I actually enjoy cutting the grass and doing yard work. I'm more of an "outdoorsy" type of gal anway. I have three more intense week of class left...Woohoo! I have a lot of work to do...ugh! Oh by the way,,,I bought two pepper and cucumber plants for my "mini garden"...I can't wait to plant them and see if I can get some veggies!
I'm not sure who has the Surr.endered Wife book right now but since I read it (I think back in Feb)...there have been some really awesome changes. I gave my lovely dh totally reign over our finances. I give him my pay and he gives me an "allowance" which has been more than enough for my personal expenses and he budgets everything else. He wanted to do this years ago but I had to hang on to my own money. We've have "our" money but I wanted MINE. I gave that up and it's going really well. It's like we have more money to do things with. My dh bought me my own lap.top a few months ago. Now I can do my research papers whenever I want! I can blog whenever I want too which is nice! When I feel like reading blogs or posting I usually like to do it when I feel like it and not when the computer is free. When my dh is home...he lives on the computer. So, I'm thankful this has been working out so well. My dh is not controlling but this lets him use his financial wisdom as he sees fit and I do not ask questions or wonder how he's doing. I know if there were any concerns or issues, he'd talk about them. I have been praising God for all that is right and the good in my life and in a way...like I gave my Dh the finances...I need to give God my IF and anxieties. I love God,Jesus , mother Mary and all that our faith as to offer and nothing is going to change that. God has His plan and I need to trust all will be okay! :)
In cycle news....my last cycle was normal...Little bit more on the heavier side which is a good thing. Some pain but nothing like before. That was the first cycle in a long time where I didn't take Al.eve ten days or so before day one! I'm charting closely to see when I'm going to ovulate. I'm sure it will the same as always...I've already started to see some fertile mucus....it's just nice to have this month to be free. The next cycle I will be doing the injecti.bles...I'm not sure what to think yet. Oh well...one day at a time, right? I'm thankful that our insur.ance will cover most of the meds costs. It's so expensive to have IF. We haven't seen any statements or bills from my surg yet. I hope the costs are close to the estimates we were given. I know they found more than we all expected but I hope that won't mean more costs...maybe...but nothing we can do about it now. I feel really good and I am thankful for this clean slate. I feel like I got my fertility back....when I praise God that keeps popping into my mind...hmmmm....did I get enough back to TTC and get pregnant? We just have to wait and see,,,,in the meantime, I have many blessings to be thankful for and I am. Praise God!
I am so glad things are going so well with your finances. There was so much wisdom in that book. I hope that you continue to feel well and that your cycles stay normal. Isn't normal great? Thanks for your prayers and support. Some days have been harder than others, so I am so thankful for all the prayers being said for us.
