Fighting PCOS Naturally

The move this weekend was exhausting. I was running on no sleep, Hubs was fighting with Mom, and nothing was packed. The packing is definitely my fault. I knew that there would be some arguing, but I determined that I will never leave my Mom and Hubs together to accomplish a big task without being there myself. The same thing happens every time, and although I can multitask, trying to get two people to stop arguing while I'm miles away is ridiculous. We have the basics in the apartment at the moment, and will be packing more over the next week to take to storage or the new place. But since we "moved in" on Saturday, I've had this feeling of dread that we are staying in a hotel for a few days, then going right back to the townhouse. I know it's irrational, but I just can't get it to go away. Hubs has been trying really hard to remind me that we are at home in our new place. I hope it'll go away when we turn the keys in next week. Spike is a little weary

Goals, Goals, Goals.... It's time for my April Goals! But a recap of March first..... March Goals: - Work an average of at least 6 hours a day so we can save up for our move at the end of April - Sorta. I've been doing 5-8 hour days, depending on how my body feels. - Find a place to move to. - We did! It's an efficiency halfway closer to work! - Make something healthy and yummy for this month's PCOS group meetup - a picnic potluck! - It got cancelled due to weather.  - Start working out again. - Ugh, no. No excuses, just lazy. - Continue the slow changes in my diet for success - I've been eating better and worse. - Visit my bestie - We did! Went to see one of my nieces play in her first t-ball game! - Take Hubs outside city limits so he can set off fireworks for his birthday - No, we sat at home, and didn't really do much.  - Completely ignore my 26th birthday. That was easy. I didn't do anything because I wasn't really excited about it. -

Infertility Awareness Week is coming up, and even though I typically write some post for it, I don't want to do that this year. What's my reasoning? I'm continually finding reasons why I should not be a mom. Health issues, money, overall life changes.... So this post is about why I'm OK not being a mom. I've written many posts about why I want to be a mom. This is the opposite side of the coin. It's surprising how your plans, ideas, dreams, change as times goes on. I remember my dad telling me that I should get too attached to a boy because my life would change by the time I was 25. What I wanted as a teenager wouldn't be what I wanted in my life after I got older. He was right. I wanted to be done having kids by the time I was 25. Now, here I am, 26, married, no kids, great job, and the last year has really showed that I've changed. I don't cry about our infertility anymore. I can play with babies and not be upset that I'm going home without t
