3 days

Three days is all I have left at Itron.  I went to my boss today to ask if I could use vacation for half a day on Friday, so I could attend my substitute training.  She approved and everything was going well.  Then at lunch I checked my e-mail and they had changed the time of the training from 8-10, to 8-12.  This would mean I would need 6 hours of vacation time.  I went to talk to her again and she told me to just take the whole day as vacation.  I asked if that would mess up my severance, and she said no.  I'm hoping she's right.  I didn't want to talk to human resources about it, so I'm going off of her word.  *Fingers crossed.*  I'm glad the end is coming sooner, and I'm happy to miss the sob day on Friday.

Fall cleaning?

Matt moved back into our bedroom last weekend.  We decided since whatever job I would find, would be on first shift we would try being a normal couple again.  So far it has worked, I think it's because I fall asleep before he does.  So I do not hear him snore anymore.  Since last weekend was more of the "lets move everything back."  This weekend was, "lets organize and clean everything."  I washed the guest bedroom sheets yesterday and made up the guest bed.  I put all of his blankets away in the closet and cleaned the bathroom.  That side of the house looks great, again.  It was weird when he was "living" in that corner of the house, I would condense his messiness to the room.  Now that we're back to sharing everything, my OCD has taken over.  His mess is in our closet.  Someday soon I hope to change that.  But at least he's willing to work with me, and I with him. 

Fall is coming!

I felt it in the air this morning.  More specifically- the temperature was cooler when I was walking the dogs.  I absolutely love fall.  I love the changing colors and the falling leaves.  I love getting to wear cute sweaters and boots!  I hate that my boots have to chill in the closet for months.  I love festivals that go on in our area.  This season reminds me why I love South Carolina.  <3  Fall  <3 

Feeling guilty

I decided to skip church this morning.  The last 2 weeks I was really bored in the hour between breakfast and service.  Since I used to teach Sunday school I Was able to stay occupied.  Last night I wasn't feeling the hour of boredom.  I know I could just go to service, but I wish I was still involved.  I wanted to take a year off from being so busy, but I really miss it.  I didn't want to commit to much, because I didn't know if I'd be working retail on the weekends.  I hope I'm able to sort this (and these feelings) out soon. 

Clomid- infertility

I am really hoping this dose works out this cycle.  Everything is good with Matt, and everything is good with me.  Even if we get a neg. test, I just want to ovulate.  It is so frustrating to have to deal with my body, and have an unexplained diagnosis.  I wish I could just be told what the problem is, and we can fix it.  This pill is making me crazy though.  I hate being emotional and crazy.  I hate the hot flashes.  Thankfully, I'm not having any today.  I hope the worst is over!  I really just want this to work.

Saturdays

I have started loving the calmness of cleaning my house on the weekends.  I love getting up, going to work and then looking around and seeing everything tidy.  I also am loving my quiet time while Matt is out watching his game.  I need to come up with another hobby to fill my time.  I like being by myself,  but I do need to find something to do.  I've done 4 loads of laundry today, and am ready to go crazy!  I've been reading a lot as well, so I should probably get into my new book. 

The layoff is coming!

I've been back on first shift this week.  T-minus 7 work days until our lay off.   I have a part time job lined up, and am excited to get to work with kids again.  BIG update- we decided to start Clomid. The doctor has ruled me as unexplained annovulatory.  I had a clear HSG, and Matt is alright.  So we get to try Clomid.  It had been pushed off until I got a job, but we worked out the pros of the decision.  It's so exciting!!!!!!!  I'm starting off at 50 mg.  I hope good stuff starts happening to us soon.
