This is temporary... Good for the soul

I have been trying to not post multiple posts a day but today will be the exception...
Obviously I did the "Currently" fun post and this will be my serious post... hehe

Today has been awesomely refreshing. I got to wake up and go to one of my absolute favorite places in Ansbach. I was able to sit for 2 hours with three wonderful women. Three wonderful women who are in the same struggle we are in- trying to conceive. We are all in different stages and with varying problems... but the same desired outcome... a sweet sweet baby. It was so nice to drink coffee and soak in the relaxing surroundings. It was wonderful to know that you are completely understood. That your words will be understood and not taken lightly. It was just what I needed.

I was able to come home and talk to Lee and let him know how it made me feel. He has been totally supportive. He has dealt with the mood swings... thank you hormone shots... and continued through this mess with me.

After I got home- he took Hais to the aquella (indoor pool) here in town. She loves it. It allows me to put lil man to bed and have some quiet time. All in all this day has been amazing for me. So good for the soul!!

This has been a tough month. Finances are tight. Every penny is accounted for. What is hard- is that June will be no better!! It will also be tight. But I remember that it doesnt matter cause all our bills are paid and food is in the house. We had a fantastic vacation the entire month of April and got to spend a great week showing Ali around the beginning of this month. June will be tough cause Lee is heading to Arkansas for a week for a conference that will be good for his career. We have to pay for it out of our pocket- which stinks- and wait for the Army to pay us back. Plus- we pay back a huge chunk of my oral surgery bill from California...ugh!!

Normal months are not like this. I keep reminding myself of this when I get stressed out. We are always comfy with money. This is temporary. This is temporary. This is temporary... lol

I remind myself that I am blessed. I have a fantastic family and some good friends to lean on. I have an amazing roof over my head and food filling the cabinets. My bills are paid and we have the chance to have another baby at no cost to us... I keep telling myself these things...
