Women of Strength!

A Strong Woman VS. A Woman Of Strength


A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.

A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.

A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.

A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.

A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.

A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

I've had a busy weekend, so haven't really had a chance to check in with you all.  I took an hpt this morning & it was negative, plus my temp dropped a bit.  I think I'll stop my progesterone tomorrow if my temp continues to drop.  So, on Friday, I picked up my parents from the airport.  They were on a 3 1/2 week cruise through China, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore...  It was great to see the & hear their amazing stories! :)  Saturday I had to attend a seminar from 8 a.m.-7p.m., so it was a loooong day!!!  Today I got up and went to Pilates & now I'm just catching up on laundry, cleaning, etc. & dh and I are gonna watch a movie & then take Carmelo for a walk.  We're loving his new schedule, by the way :)

Arlotheslug:  I'm SO happy that Alice will be okay!!!  What a scare you & dh had!  Thank God she'll be okay :)  Your boot camp schedule is unbelievable!  Are you continuing with it this week, too?  I'm so impressed!  I've been keeping up the pilates classes 3-4 times/week & the spinning once a week.  This week I plan to go Wed. and Sat.  We'll see! :)

Candie:  Thanks for hoping I'm the next bfp! :)  I really appreciate your support.  Doesn't look likely this time, but as you know, it's okay...  I know with dh's new schedule, we'll be so much more relaxed this time around :)  How are you doing?

Luvkayln:  I'm so excited for you!  This will be a busy week, with your u/s & HSG.  I'm so happy everything is working out for you :)

Stacey:  How are you feeling?  Do you have another appt scheduled?  I hope the bleeding has stopped & you're feeling much better, especially since you can move about a bit more.  Take care! :)

Keyan:  How is the Lupron treating you?  Did you keep up the Zumba classes all last week? :)

Lina:  Will you test soon?

mrspace:  That's great that your u/s is this week!!!  How exciting :)

Hey everyone.  I am inching my way closer and closer to my second trimester, which makes me happy.  The morning sickness was better today but I'm so tired.  My in-law's 25 wedding anniversary party is tomorrow.  I have to help set up for it tonight.  We still haven't gotten them a gift yet.  We were planning on getting them something together (as in for them as a couple), but now they are complaining about not getting enough gifts so they want individual gifts.  So I have no idea what we're going to do.  It's a pain in the butt!  But oh well.  We'll figure it out!  We will officially be completely moved into our new house by tonight.  After work I'm heading over to clean the old place up before I go help decorate for the party.  

luvkayln- Good luck at your u/s today hun! I'm waiting anxiously to hear what happens.

mommyin09- Great job with the thread, as always.  I hope that you're doing well this cycle.  My fingers are definately crossed for you!

stacey-  Congrats on making it to 17 weeks!  It's going by so quickly!  I'm so excited for you!  Have you guys been thinking about names?

Nikki-  I miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Call me sometime if you get a chance.  

candie- Thanks for the well wishes.  DH is so funny to watch.  He paces around all the time and is always asking the "what if" questions.  He goes from being over protective and not letting me lift a finger, to cranky and angry with me for no reason. Which is fine.  He's just struggling with the information.  He's nervous.  But we're all doing just fine.

No hun the docs only offered a review to talk bout the possibility of donor egg thats just not something i can deal with right now i just need to understand how on my iui's i responded although mininal two or three follies and this time round it was so much a higher dose and nothing i wasn't expecting a huge difference but hoped for something i think i'm going to give up with meds the docs don't have any hope for me using my own eggs and don't believe in miracles so I think i'm just going to put ttc out of my mind and hope for a miracle i just feel a huge void at the mo and don't know what to fill it with

mommyin09 - I'm doing good.  Ready for AF to pack her bags!  :)  How are you?  DH's 30th birthday is on Sunday, so it's a big weekend for him (although I think he'd rather not celebrate it LOL).  I'll be sending you a message.

luvkayln - I just saw your updated mood.  Yay!  That u/s must have went well today.  I hope everything continues to go well and you get to have your IUI soon!  :)

Keyan - Hon, my heart is just breaking for you and your family.  These cases never make sense, it's hard to understand what people arre thinking.  Take care of yourself, I'll be in touch.  ((hugs))

Arlotheslug - That is great news!  How exciting that you get to be there for the next u/s.  Less than a week away!  Yay!  I can understand why you are still a little guarded, but she seems really committed to this and I think she really wants to do the right thing.  I hope that it all starts feeling very real for you soon and you are both able to enjoy every minute!  :)  

Stacey - Hope all is well.  Enjoy your rest and relaxation this weekend and all the best at your u/s on Monday.  Can't wait to hear your update!  I'll be praying that the clot starts shrinking.  

LinaG - I hope everything went well with your dad's wedding!  I'm sure your mom wants him to be happy and was smiling down on him yesterday.  :)

mrspace - Congratulations!  What a surprise you got!  :)  I'm sure you were both in total shock for a while.  I hope all 3 babies continue to go strong and healthy, and don't make mommy too sick!  Take care.  

pyar - Oh dear, I am so sorry that you got such bad news.  I can only imagine how upsetting it is, but take it one step at a time and don't give up yet!  Hopefully your doctor will have some answers for you.  Take care.  ((hugs))  Know we're here if you ever need to talk.  

MamaTina - Wow, lots going on!  So sorry about DH's job, but thankfully God gave him another wonderful opportunity.  Sounds like your little one is doing so well.  My, they grow up too fast!  Take care and enjoy your summer.  

jmh - So great that the counts were good and everything went smoothly with your IUI!  Hope we hear good news from you soon!

ad_06 - Hope those follies keep growing and you get to have your IUI soon!
