Awkward

I don't know what the deal is. I haven't had anything to write about. Nothing but a bunch of negative hpts. Actually, I'm just sick of it all, to be completely honest.
I blame this mood on hormones or the lack of, lol. There are just so many things in my head and I'm holding it back for the most part but it's becoming difficult. 
I want to give my daughter a sibling. I want to have a complete family. I want to feel normal. I want to be thin and healthy. 
I need a new approach to this. Not sure how but somethings got to give, right?

Our little secret

We joined a local gym 4 months ago and really got into it. With our schedules A goes 2 times a week by himself and I go whenever I can. Last night was a rare occasion when we were actually able to go together. Not that it matters much because we act like strangers while we're there. It just makes me feel more comfortable to know he's there with me. Plus it's fun to sneak a peak at him while he's lifting weights and feel like we're young again, being flirty. Exchanging flirty glances every once in a while like we know something nobody else knows.
Last night we were working out and we played our usual game. I was on the elliptical. He was on the bench press and I gave him a wink. The lady next to me (I'm guessing in her 50's) looked over at me and gave me this look. She started to grin and says "He's got a ring on his finger. That's just playing with fire". I couldn't help but laugh. She went on to tell me about a man she was seeing when she was in her 20's that was married and how it was exciting at first but ended in heartbreak. I explained that WE were married to each other and she calmed down a little. She got a funny look in her eye and asked if we like that sort of role play, games and such. Then it got weird. As she got off of her machine, she slipped me her business card. Want to take a guess at what she does for a living? Sells 'exotic' toys and other unmentionables. Then my mind went to the gutter. I don't think we'll be playing that game for a while. I have to get this picture out of my head first.

This got me thinking. Is there anything that you do to help keep the fire burning while TTC? It becomes a mission, a job. I don't want to loose our passion. Anyone do the same? 

The Egg Dance

Thanks to a wonderful friend from twitter, I learned of a new dance! The egg dance. 

Saturday night was a full moon. The biggest moon I've seen in a while and everyone on twitter was abuzz. Feeling totally out of the loop I asked and was surprised to learn. You crack an egg by your garden and walk around it 3 times. It's supposed to help get you pregnant. I know my neighbors (who are VERY nosey) thought I was a complete lunatic walking around my plants but I did it.

Now we wait. 2 weeks to be exact. I feel good. 

Can't help but smile :)

Toy Story 3 on Ice

A few pictures from today... she was VERY surprised :-)

A horn a day

I'm not quite sure if anyone truly knows how much I love using my horn. Shameful, I know, but I can't help it! Nothing feels better when some jerk pulls out in front of you. It's one of those things that my husband teases me about constantly.

I had to work last week and my husband asked to use my truck. Not out of the ordinary for him to ask, so I let him drop me off. After my shift, I got into the truck and he had his friend and Ava with him. Everyone was giggling. Come to find out he installed some kind of obnoxiously loud horn. A train horn to be exact. I have yet to use it for fear someone will throw something at my truck. Maybe it was his way of making me tone it down? Who knows but it's the thought that counts, right?

I'll leave you with this video, just so you get the idea.
