It has been a while since I last wrote. Well first thing first I have been swarmed like crazy at work. There are just far too many things to do. At work, marking is never ending. Lesson preparation is non stop. Worksheet creation is an everyday affair. My work is taking my time away from hubby. We are spending just so little time together. With this long weekend (4 days to be exact), I am hoping I will get to spend some real quality time with him.
Today he is on afternoon shift. Since he is at work, I am planning to finish up some work and do some reading so that when he is home I can just spend time with him. We went to the supermarket today to purchase some groceries since the shop is gonna be closed till Wednesday. For now I have not started any work yet. I am just dragging and procrastinating. No work on Monday means it gives me more time to do things for me.
We do not have plans for anything yet tomorrow. We shall see. But Monday we are going to the place we first dated at, celebrated pur birthday together... Here...
It is going to be a family outing. I know there are gonna be tons of people there but who cares as long as I am spending time with loved ones.
Now back to my journey to motherhood... Nothing much is happening on that front. I am currently still suffering from all the symptoms of menopause. Some days they are bearable, some days they just get really horrible. The hot flashes, mood swings you name it. Hubby has been on the receiving end of my symptoms. Poor hubby!!!
Tentatively my period is supposed to come in 4 days time. But because of the suppression it won't be coming till April. When it does come, it will be time for me to continue with my IVF journey. I am very excited. I told hubby that if I get a positive result from it, I wanna take the full 60 days of hospitalisation leave. I want my 1st trimester to be over before coming back to work. If only I was at my old workplace, this decision would have been so much easier. Here, it is a little tougher because I am still trying to plant my feet firmly into the ground. Previously my position was more or less stable. Hmmm... Do I regret my decision? Sometimes I do. Was it a hasty decision on my part? Maybe. But then again here, I have more time after work. I am done as early as 3pm and only on certain days do I finish at 6pm.
Well let's not turn back now. Let's make the best out of the situations that I am currently in. If I choose to take all the leave I have what can the management do. Possibly give me a D at the review meeting but other than that I guess I should be okay. So which is more important at this moment: WORK or STARTING A FAMILY? That's a no brainer. Of course starting a family!!! So when the time comes and I have to choose, I will choose whatever that will lead me towards starting a family.
With that I shall take my leave now. Need to start a little on my work. Till I write again. SHould be soon enough since I will not be at work till Wednesday.
