October Goals

I would have posted this yesterday, but since it was my birthday and all, I figured it could wait a day.

I have high hopes for October.  I have a lot of plans adoption related and life related.

  1. Register for or attend pre-training foster to adopt classes
  2. Meet with a social worker to figure out the process so we can get the homestudy started!
  3. Go on a nature scavenger hunt hike.  I’m super excited for this!

4. Get back to the gym and back on my mat. I’m going to take a yoga class with Maria to see how my foot is holding up! I also want to get back at the gym. I see a Friday night date coming up! :)

5. Regroup and reorganize for the year. I feel like I’m behind (I’m not) but I need to see it on paper to know that.

What are your goals for October?

  For more than three years now, B and I have been trying to start a family. I have talked about it, and this past summer, when I went for my annual BW panel and my WTF appointment to help figure out why we’ve had no progress, despite weight loss, and trying drugs and IUIs, [...]

I went to see my fertility specialist this week, to kind of get an idea of where we stand and what is going on.  It had been a year since I was there last and had a full check, all the blood work, etc.  It’s been a year since my last surgery, a year since [...]

Yesterday, I was tracking my food and reflection on the day over at 100 point 5 (which is where I do my daily logging to keep from flooding up your feed here!) and on this post, specifically, I found myself lying. I didn’t realize at the time I was lying… Let me explain. I started [...]

Disclaimer: Some of this might be TMI, but I’ve connected with a lot of wonderful women in the infertility boards, and this is a part of my life, which is why this blog is here.   I’m really not sure why I feel the need to start off all of my infertility posts with a [...]
