Well, here we are... wherever this is.
The calendar says March 2025 so there's that.
January and February flew by in a haze of work and home repairs. Work was hard but good. I like my jobs. Coordinating and paying for the home repairs was not a lot of fun, but I'm grateful there were parts available and labor to do the work. I am relieved to have several big To-Do items off my list. So that's what took up all of my head space for the last two months.
And that brings me to March. March 2025. But I think I already mentioned that. ;)
...It's hard to believe that it's been ten whole years since my last IVF.
I want to celebrate in some small way on the actual day toward the end of the month, but I don't have any ideas. How do you celebrate recovering from profound loss? Maybe I'll just buy a little cake from the grocery store. I like cake.
What a contrast. While my new life came together, so much around me fell apart.
You can't go wrong with cake! It's worth marking. Remembering the grief, celebrating your recovery, and your life now. Sending love!
ReplyDeleteCake it shall be. <3
DeleteCongratulations, Phoenix, on this 10 year "survivorsary"! You can be so proud of how you re-directed and built your life ♡.
ReplyDeleteI guess if I celebrated in any way, I would buy flowers, probably spring bulbs in a pot that I could plant in the garden once they start to wilt. But that's because supermarket cakes are no option for me due to some intolerances ;-).
Sunny spring greetings from Switzerland
I think I will get myself a houseplant too. <3
DeleteCake &/or a houseplant sounds like a great idea! Generally, I say do something nice for yourself!
ReplyDeleteThat's two votes for cake and two votes for a plant. Plans made! <3
