Sunshine, Flowers, Mommas, and Anethesia?

Hello!!!  I must say, May has definitely delivered in the sunshine and warmth department.  I cannot express how much I needed some sunshine and warmth.  After what always seems like never ending Winter it's nice to finally put away all the layers, open the windows and feel the sun on your skin.  And my flowers are also grateful for the much needed sunshine.  The saying, "April Showers Bring May Flowers" is definitely true this Spring.  I'm so excited that my flowers are growing and blooming.  I might become a gardener yet!  As long as there is Miracle Grow and weed preventor I've totally got this gardening thing down! :-)

As you all know Sunday was Mother's Day.  I would have loved to have spent it with my Mom but unfortunately our distance does not make that possible.  I was able to talk to her and that was nice.  My mom is amazing and I could not ask for a better momma.  She listens when I'm upset, knows how to cheer me up and is my best friend.  I hope that I always convey just how much she means to me.  Though I was sad to not be able to be with my mom on Mother's Day I am also very lucky to have my wonderful mother-in-law.  Sue has always been so wonderful to me.  She shows me love and always treats me as one of her own.  It's wonderful to have such a wonderful mom and I've been blessed to have a wonderful mom and an equally wonderful mother-in-law.   

Last Wednesday I had my Laparoscopy.  This time was a little rougher because there was an extra incision and more work.  All I can say is that you never know how much you use your stomach muscles until you can't use them.   The toughest part was not being able to laugh.  But, a few days rest and I was able to move around and get back to most of my daily tasks.  This week was tiring and I'm still healing but I'm starting to feel normal again.  So, the cyst is gone, I will see my gyno for a follow-up next month, and then I will go back to my fertility doctor.  I will say, as frustrating as it was to go on the birth control at first, it was a good thing.  For the past couple of months I no longer worried about whether I was or was not pregnant, or why I wasn't getting pregnant.  The cyst was a blessing in disguise.  It gave me a break from the stress of my infertility.  Now I am rejuvenated and ready to carry on.  Fingers crossed that the waiting is over now. :-)

Until next time! XO
