Come July, things in Texas were starting to open up more and more and we were feeling a lot more at ease with going into the hospitals, clinics and everywhere else for that matter. After hubby’s test came back normal, the doctor wanted to start looking at me again. The rest of the day, hubby (who took the whole day off) waited on me and ensured I stayed in bed because I just felt really cruddy the rest of the day. If there is a concern that you might be struggling with infertility, be sure to speak with your doctor and request a referral to a specialist that can help you start your family.

because I really didn’t want to start right off the bat attracting people who want to spam my site with hate or accuse me of being something that I am not. I don’t want to go out of my way to hurt people, but I don’t want to sugarcoat reality either. But, with current events and the idea that certain issues are becoming partisan issues even though they really shouldn’t be (e.g. human trafficking and pedophilia), I will want to share my thoughts and concerns on here in the future. My sharing of my views from now on could cause some companies to want to cut ties with me because my views don’t represent them in the way they would like.

There have been a lot of lessons learned in our 8 years of marriage that I want to share with you all today. Those stressful times where couples aren’t talking as often as they used to (beyond talking about weather or other topical discussions) can cause them to lose closeness and trust with each other. Because talking was such a huge part of our relationship for so long, it has become second nature for us to always want to talk to each other and share thoughts and feelings. Finally, with interpersonal communication with anyone (especially with your spouse) the way a person takes a statement is as important and often times more important than your intent.
