May sound silly but it's true and we told them we would never tell them when we were going for a cycle so don't ask.<br /><br />Yes I was one of those people that it did take forever but trust me, it's so worth it when you do get there!<br /><br /><br />Lots of hugs xx<br /><br />~ICLW~LiL Moo & Meehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11043592475857139997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2360540337437647012.post-12922742906280334892010-04-26T21:05:13.167-07:002010-04-26T21:05:13.167-07:00IF funk happens.

But then that wound starts bleeding and we're like, "oh crap, maybe I shouldn't have done that." But it's ok- it'll scab again.<br /><br />I often find myself in a funk after something as draining as a baby shower. The secret, I have found, is that I also exert as much energy into myself. Hope aside, you need to take some time for yourself. Don't worry about the future, the unknowns - live in the moment and do for yourself. Sending you a hug.<br /><br />~Miriam (ICLW #130)<br /><a href="http://hannahweptsarahlaughed.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Hannah Wept, Sarah Laughed</a>Keiko Zollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13626943324988347787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2360540337437647012.post-19178284490279710662010-04-26T18:00:27.237-07:002010-04-26T18:00:27.237-07:00I've been there, too.
