15 day personalized blogging challenge
Friday was supposed to be my first post. However, a two tiered Elmo cake demanded all of my time so I'm late.
So, today's post is:
I actually posted this on facebook a couple of weeks ago, but it was my plan to use it for this. I posted this on a Monday afternoon after patients were done. I was so excited to show somebody but, as I ran around the office giggling uncontrollably (because, remember, I think its great) I soon realized I was all alone.
I'm all alone, theres nobody here besiiddeeee me.
At one point as I was gathering my junk/purse, I heard a noise and screamed out "KAREN!" and ran towards the sound but it was just the water pump. I left feeling dejected and deflated, bummed that no one was here to witness the sign. I knew that the next day people would notice it and laugh.
No one noticed it.
I had to literally stand there and giggle at it until someone saw it.
The reactions:
Amanda (low amount of sense of humor): Why does it say Nina? Oh.. it doesn't say that? I don't get it.
Christie: What if they try to use it?
Karen: Hahahahaha. (We then plan on dressing in black to pose like super ninjas. Photos to follow)
Mother of patient: O.o *takes out camera phone and inconspicuously takes a picture*
Office Manager, Christina: I like your sign.
Kids/Patients: Is that a real exit?
Father of patients: If you want to get stuck in a tube and wait to be rescued.
Kids: O.O

Thoughts
So we've been trying to get pregnant since the end of January. So far, zilch. Last month was hard for me. I thought about it constantly. Every day id go to work and think "i could be pregnant" then id freak myself out with "what if todays the day im supposed to get pregnant and Im not?!". I'd be driving home in my car, hear a sad song or see something outside and id just start bawling bc I wanted to know if I was. Constantly thinking and praying about getting pregnant. I know your not supposed to overly think it. It says so everywhere. not to obsess about it. But how can you not think about something that you think about all the time?
When I got pregnant last it was so easy. One try and *boom* the deed was done. It was two blessings- one because we really wanted another baby and two because it helped as 'proof' that I couldnt move to Mexico. Part of the process for Jerrys papers requires a 'waiver' to permit him to come back as soon as he is approved instead of staying years in mexico as punishment for coming here illegaly. Something you have to state in the waiver is 1- why you need him here and 2- why you couldnt move to mexico and live there instead of staying here- and it has to be better than 'all my family is here bc all his family is there in mexico. So when I got pregnant we were obviously excited about the second child but i was relieved because I had something to keep me here. I want to have another baby so bad. And the timing would be so right and it would work out perfectly if I were to get pregnant now.
And after I say all that im also really scared to get pregnant again. After having the miscariage im cursed now to be constantly worried throughout the future pregnancies. What if something goes wrong? With hayden time flew by and I wasnt worried a bit. I was pregnant one day then I had a baby. It seemed to go by that fast. Im scared that once i do get pregnant Ill be so nervous about doing anything that might cause harm to the baby that Ill be walking aroundn with five foot pillow bumpers around me and the time will be torture because ill just be waiting for the day until i can exhale and know that the baby is safe and in my arms. Does that make sense? I want it. but then im scared to see the positive pregnancy test because i dont want to feel the overwelming grief of losing something that was so precious to me.
Am i rambling or does it get my point across?
I just.. really need some prayers now if you have time to throw some out there for us.
Thanks everyone.

Cirque du soleil
Blahh.. I have nothing of importance to write about. so im posting a picture of a cake i just finished. its cirque du soleil theme and my first attempt at making people- let alone people that are balanced on poles. i hate the big "40" but its too late to take it off bc i airbrushed the color on and taking it off... would just be catastrophic.
