Work
As is, I am not a workaholic. But, I am a perfectionist (trust me… it is a disease) and that is enough to stress me out big time at work. I have to get it right. When I started IVF, I was told that ute’s don’t like stress. And since then, I have been taking it a little easy at work (read slacking off). My priorities changed. Since we all know what happened to my IVF, it was now time to catch up and actually get ahead (in anticipation of more slacking off to come because of the upcoming FET).
But, you know, the weird thing was that I was more stressed out when I was going through IVF than when I was working. When I am actually busy at work, nothing fazes me. Its a different world. I escape from reality, from IF, from google, from… from life for a good 8-9 hours of the day. It was a distraction that I started to enjoy. And that’s where I have been concentrating my energy on for the past couple of weeks.
Guitar Hero
Yes… that’s right.. Guitar Hero. Wait wait… don’t judge me yet. This is how I play it… Red, Blue, Red, Red, Red-Blue, Yellllooowww. Red. Green. Red. Welll… you get the idea. I have no clue what they are singing. I have never heard any of the songs before. And I hate rock! I just press the colors that the TV asks me to press. And voila… we have a song! I love it!! :) BTW, for those who care, this is the Aerosmith version and most of the songs are from the 70’s! But they do have a catchy tune. DH rented this game abt a week ago and since then, my routine after dinner has been to turn on my PS3 and spend a good hour or so going Red, Red, Blue, Yellow, Yellow, Green. I am convinced that my hands will develop arthritis if I stick to this for another week. It is sooo much fun!
Family visit
Ah…. yes… family (aka Mom Dad and Sis)… Love them… who doesn’t!?! Its been more than a year since I have seen them. So I am uber uber excited that I will be spending Oct 25th to Nov 2nd in NJ w/ them. Can’t wait!!
Thanks to all these things… I have not thought abt my FET cycle at all! Ah… such bliss that comes from not having/wanting to monitor every twinge and watch every sneeze!
