It was so hard to get up this morning. It's cold and foggy here. We have a major leak in our roof, I haven't been able to get a roofing contractor to actually come to my house yet, and there's a huge storm blowing in later this week. I also haven't had a phone call about the surgery I'm supposedly having next month. Normally I hate it when people call me, but I'm dying for the phone to ring these days.
I watched my sister finish a marathon yesterday morning. To be fair to myself, I finished the same marathon two years ago, but I feel like a lazy slob now. Especially since I had to buy pants in a bigger size recently. I want to run so badly, but the osteoarthritis in my ankle has been really problematic. My husband said he is bringing a brace home for me to try, and I really hope it helps. It sucks being a 36-year-old with a 76-year-old ankle.
In other news. I'm planning to start testing for ovulation next Monday. I can't wait. I'm just hoping for a positive, although I know if there isn't a positive there are ways to make it happen. However, what worries me the most is my period. For most of my life, even when I was on birth control, my period was painful and heavy, and lasted about 5 days, sometimes 6. Since I stopped using birth control, it is still fairly painful, but it only lasts 2 or 3 days. And sometimes there's very little blood. It's sort of mind-boggling. Considering day one this time around was pretty heavy and painful, I know it was actually my period and not random spotting, but I wish I understood what's happening a little better.
I hope you get some answers when you finish the testing! It's very frustrating always wondering what is happening and feeling like you don't understand what is happening in your own body. I've felt like that too.
