Back to work today
I am back at work. It feels strange since I have not been here in two weeks and the last time I was here I was pregnant and now I am not - so that makes me a little sad. I did do alot of crying for our baby this past weekend. I also did alot of cleaning - that is what I do when I am upset - clean. I organize both John and I closets and dresser drawers. I did all the wash and cleaned the whole house. I moved all the furniture back in the baby room - we had cleared it out to prepare the room. That is not necessary anymore. We may turn it into a Media Room or a Workout Room. John was able to score a free new treadmill so I cannot wait to start exercising again and get this IVF bloat off of me. I am hoping work will be busy today to make the day go fast. I also have a ton of errands to do this week - that I put off when I was pregnant because I was to tired to do anything. We are also trying to plan our trip - we still have not decided where we want to go but we know we want to go away in the beginning of April. One day at a time. It will get better. Everything happens for a reason - right?? I hate that saying but I guess it is true. One day at a time.

I hope work goes as well as it can... we have all been thinking about you.
I hope everyone at work is gentle today and that being out in the world helps you. Yes - get away. Go someplace that feels like another world that you guys can excape to. An all inclusive with unlimited margaritas sounds good to me... Thinking about you...
I did the same thing--the day after I found out, I cleaned my house from top to bottom--and although, I had a clean house afterwards, it felt good to get away from my feelings for a while. If you need any help getting through this grieving thing (bc it will come and go in spurts)...please feel free to email me. I know it all too well.

One day at a time... that is all we can ask of ourselves.
I am back to work today too, it sucks. I hope your day is going better than mine so far (i've cried at my desk already).
one day at a time is my motto too.
I do the whole "clean when I'm upset" thing too. In fact, it's practically the only time I DO clean (I'm a horrible housewife.) I hope today goes by fast and isn't as difficult as you've anticipated. I remember that feeling -- going back into my classroom and thinking "Last time I was here, my baby was with me." It's tough, no doubt about it.
I'm thinking of you.
Hugs,
Jo
One day at a time, the only way we can really survive. I think sometimes bad things just happen. I want to believe it all happens for a reason, but with things like this it's just too hard. I am a cleaner when I get upset as well. It helps to stay active and busy. Praying for you.
i also hate the saying that everything happens for a reason. maybe a better way to say it might be that you can use your experiences, positive and negative, to help shape you as a person and how you interact with the world around you. i hate to think that there is a "reason" for these things. it's not fair. i can't think of a reason for it. :(
i do the same thing when i'm stressed: clean and organize. i make a million lists. oh....and i EAT like crazy!! ;)
sending you big hugs!! one day at a time...
Sending you warm thoughts and healing prayers. Hope your day at work went well!!!
