ack. life can suck

at least my life is seeming to even out lately. the hub has been doing great at the new job & we may actually have a decent chance of catching up & even affording the clomid challenge next cycle. i am very grateful for that.

i am grateful to have the hub tonight. as much as this year (+) has been a struggle and been the most difficult thing i have done (including a difficult program at school & getting myself out of debt- only to fall back in it after this year, blech) i have learned to be thankful that i am going through it with the man i love more than anything. as much as we have both said things we don't really mean out of fear & anger this past year- i know that we love each other unconditionally.

this love fest for my hub comes on the heels of finding out one of my greatest & oldest friends has just been left by her husband. of 5 months. for no good reason. this is a woman who did everything for this man for 3+ years & only asked for love in return. this is a man who seems to be a child at heart- not ready for commitment, yet not man enough to say something before lifetime vows were exchanged. of course- i don't know the whole story, i am reacting to what my dear friend has told me. but i do know that she doesn't deserve this. she didn't deserve to have this beautiful wedding, only to have the marriage crumble. and hearing this today makes me so grateful for what i have- my hub, my rock, my love. i hope my friend finds her rock soon.

It is so hard to watch a friend go through this, and certainly makes of grateful for all the gifts we DO have.

So glad you made an acupuncture appointment. I hope you like it. It is only thing I can do to not get headaches. So IF stuff or otherwise, I am a great proponent of it for keeping healthy.

Let me know how it goes. And thanks for keeping up up with my blog. It is really sweet of you.

Five months. Wow. I had a friend whose wife left him for another guy at eleven months and it was devastating to him. I still want to hit his ex whenever I see her.
Do you live near her? I hope she has some friends nearby to help her through this. :(

io- it really sucks. she's from back home- 2+ hours away. but she's coming down here to visit now at the end of the month- so that will be good!
