I wanted to wait till next summer to TTC as I wanted to run another tough mudder. But now I don't want to wait. I want to start now! DH says he wants to wait till the new year. So TTC in January!
I had a checkup with my doctor today and got up the nerve to ask for a prescription for a treadmill (because of my obesity, high cholesterol, and social anxiety). She got this look on her face 8-D I swear. Said that lots of people go to the gym and don't get prescriptions to have that paid for by flex plans...
And this is another reason why I asked if I could change doctors. The clinic said nope, not within the practice. I like the location but really detest my doctor. It could be worse, right? At least I don't have bad dreams about her anymore.

DH, who works for a major music industry corporation (and hates it), might have found a new job...working for a rapper. I am a bit ^o) about this, but we'll see.
All this LLL talk has me wanting some so bad...I don't own any and it's def not in the budget right now. Maybe x-mas? But my workout wardrobe seriously needs an overhaul, bad.
Turning 30 has me worried that I won't be 'ready' to have kids until it's too late. I know I still have time...but seriously, I just don't see TTC anytime in the next 2-3 years (which was sort of our original timeline) for several reasons...and that worries me.

I am so fucking sick of dealing with my knee and the pt exercises that are going nowhere. I tore the ACL, MCL, and meniscus in May, had surgery in July, and have been doing 2-3 hours of therapy a day since then but my knee is still stiff and has very limited range of motion. I'm so frustrated because it's not like I'm not putting in the work.
My local MM girls already know this, but MIL passed away this past weekend and I am overwhelmed trying to deal with her estate. I am trying to support DH as much as possible but really I kind of just want to crawl into a hole and let someone else figure everything out. It doesn't help that she lived (ugh, past tense) in Arizona and we're based in Boston so it's like a mad dash trying to get as much done as possible while we're in town.
Hugs, Rock! You and DH have been on my mind all week. Let us know when you get back into town and so we can make a date to go out and unwind.
yesterday my upper lip (only on the left side) suddenly got very, very swollen. it stayed like that for an hour (it looked like a cold sore - just a big round circle that tingled) then it went back to normal.
I haven't introduced anything new into my life? I think this is idiopathic - it happened once last year and that was the doctor's conclusion. my body is so fucking weird.
I have something against wearing LLL since that weird story of one of their employees murdering another. I keep associating the brand with workplace violence.
I've been in physical therapy for over two months, and I still have a fair amount of pain in the muscle I injured. I'm beginning to wonder if it'll ever feel right again. And DH's employer's benefits dep't dropped the ball, so I'm missing 1.5 weeks of appointments, which should help a ton.
Two realtors are coming by tomorrow to give their $0.02 about timing, staging and pricing. I'm so nervous, but also so excited! I've accomplished so much today and am going to reward myself by buying some mums and pumpkins to set out front.
Congrats on the running, Kore! And big hugs to Peggy, Explorer and Rock-n-Voll.
tacom, I get hives everywhere when I'm really stressed. I had to call in sick to work for a few days once because they were all over my face and there was no way in hell I could show up in a professional office looking like that. I hope Benedryl helps you.
yep, I have research all day tomorrow that requires me to meet up with medical professionals and their patients. today I just had class, so it's embarassing but not as bad. I really hope it goes away!
I will be stopping for some Benadryl on the way home!

I hope Benadryl works for you! I had stress hives that lasted 6 months once . I also got an ulcer. I was in the 8th grade. lol.
My mom came over today to eat lunch with me and pick-up an item she needs this weekend. I told H she was coming sometime this week, but wasn't specific. I had planned to chat with her more and send some stuff with her that I don't want to get lost or broken if things end up badly.
H was at home. Oops. H called me out on having a secret meeting.
Having lunch with your mom in your own home is a secret meeting???

I'm sorry for your loss. Where in AZ if I may ask? I'm in phoenix if I can be of any help. (})

Hugs to Explorer, RR and RnV.
Mine is that I'm having a lonely day where I just don't want to be by myself. And of course, I'm by myself and my husband won't be home until tomorrow night. I'm not sure what to do with myself today.

My parents are coming this weekend. If it weren't DD#1s birthday I'd have told them no, because we're right in the middle of a major addition/renovation and the house is a disaster - 80% of the kitchen drywall torn out, pipes everywhere, holes in the floor and walls, tools and supplies all over the place, wiring hanging from the ceiling. I know my mother is going to have something to say about it, and in my current mood, let's just say it's a good thing they're staying at a hotel because I can't be responsible for what I might tell her in response.

When I read this, I heard it in my head in Mrs. White's voice in Clue: "Flames, FLAMES! On the side of my face!"
I am sorry about the hives, though. DD had a flare-up of hives all over her back not too long ago, even though we hadn't introduced anything new to her. Doctor's helpful diagnosis: "Yeah, sometimes our bodies just freak out."

RNV this sounds awful, and truthfully really scares me. I've had knee issues for years and finally sought treatment but I think physical therapy is making it worse. I hope both of our issues improve soon. I miss exercising and heels!
