Thankful Thursday

Some days are just a "list post" kind of day, aren't they? :)

Today, I'm thankful for:

1) My super-amazing DH. :)

2) A great dinner last week with Rebecca!! I LOVE blogger meet-ups!

3) My retreat coming up this weekend... it will be so good to be quiet for a few days.

4) Our new glider chair and dresser and crib that were delivered for when we get "the call". We have the dresser and chair in place (DH has already declared that we will need to get another glider chair so we can each have one... I think that will need to wait until we move!) The crib is still in the box in the basement. Our desk is in the way... have to sell it on Craig.slist and then get a much smaller one. Then we'll get the crib in the room. I love the furniture! We ordered a set from JCP, then had to return it as the dresser was damaged. I didn't like the color anyway, so it was just as well. Did I blog about this already? Anyway, I will take pictures and post them after this weekend. Right now, there is still a bunch of stuff that needs to be moved elsewhere. Where else? I'm not sure... :-/

5) A surprise visit from my sister M, this past Sunday. She had to fly up to the area for a meeting on Monday, called Saturday night and asked if we could watch the hockey game together. Awesome! I so miss having her live nearby!

6) Local ultrasounds! I like not having my gas bill go up by $300 for the month! I have my scan for CD12 tomorrow. I have 4 small follicles on my right, and 6 on my left. The lead one is on my left. Interesting that I still have so many, without taking the Femara. What the heck is normal? And what on earth is my body doing?!? At least it will only have to go on for a few days next week. This weekend I'm on retreat and the office is closed anyway.

7) My first acupuncture appointment tomorrow. I'm REALLY excited! Maybe she'll have some suggestions as well.

What are you thankful for today?

Thankful Thursday

Thanks, Rebecca, for hosting! :)

Today I am thankful for...

1) The new desktop photo I mentioned here. It's on my phone now too... and has proven to be a REALLY good reminder that I have much to be thankful for. It just makes me smile! And... then I want to jump up and down like Snoopy and Charlie Brown! I've resisted... so far. :)

2) My awesome hubby. He's away on business this week (shall I mention that he's in Hawaii? No, I shouldn't mention that. Forget I said anything.) I miss him LIKE CRAZY!!! It is so good to hear his voice at night - with the time difference, we haven't had much of a chance to talk. Although last night I started falling asleep on the phone! Oops. I was that tired.

3) A clean house. Well, I need to put stuff away from dinner. But I'm thankful to be done with dusting and sweeping and everything else. (Pitts.burghers say "sweep" not "vacuum". I know, I know, it's weird. And not technically correct. Oh man, did DH ever tease me after we got married and I talked about sweeping the carpet!)

4) Family. Can't wait for the rest of them to arrive tomorrow!!

5) The gift of music. (I need to practice more!)

6) Did I mention my awesome hubby? And how much I miss him? I can't wait for him to get home!!!

Thankful Thursday

Thanks Rebecca for hosting!

This will be brief.... I am about to take a nap. :)

1) My DH... he's my rock, in so many way. I can't imagine going through all of this without his strength. I'm sure lucky I get to spend forever with him.

2) Having the chance this week to meet the beautiful Ania... we talked for 3 hours straight! It was my first blogger meet up and it was perfect. It was such a blessing to meet you Ania... I can't wait to see you again and meet Rebecca as well in less than 2 weeks! :) And yes, we definitely have to take photos!!

3) My car... which just turned 100,000 miles... she has been doing great since I've put almost 2500 miles on her in the past 2 1/2 weeks. While DH and I travel back and forth to visit family, we often take his car. Mine usually gets 6-7,000 per year. It's probably wondering what in the world happened. I think my FSA will reimburse mileage for medical treatment... I'm REALLY hoping anyway!

4) A flexible work schedule. I've had to reschedule a bunch of piano lessons and everyone has been just terrific. Several of the familes know of our struggles, which helps, but still... it's nice that they've been so flexible!

5) Sleep. I'll be even more thankful when I get more. :-D I'm absolutely exhausted... I have no idea what that follicle is up to, but it's still growing just a little since yesterday. So... I'm heading back to PA for another scan tomorrow (Friday).

6) My sister is flying in on Saturday (the one who lived with us a bit this summer before moving to TN) and I'm super excited. She'll be working at her old office during the week so she's here for 10 days! Yippee! But please pray that I am NOT driving to PA after tomorrow or at the latest, Saturday. And then, the second weekend, I have 2 more sisters coming to visit and the future BIL as well. Full house!

7). Naps... yes, I'm going to take one now!
