Planting My Garden

I took my first Lupron shot this morning and will be taking my first dex.amethasone pill tonight in addition to my BCP, prenatal vitamin and baby aspirin. That makes one shot and four pills each day for now.

In an effort to have enthusiasm and excitement for this cycle I am planting a garden. I will also be including some things that I am grateful for on my blog over the next month or so while I cycle. That way, when my cycle is complete and I am in the 2ww and doubting everything I will have something positive to look back at to reassure me that our IF is not our whole life, just a part of it.

PLANT THREE ROWS OF PEAS
1. Peace of mind
2. Peace of heart
3. Peace of soul

PLANT FOUR ROWS OF SQUASH
1. Squash gossip
2. Squash indifference
3. Squash grumbling
4. Squash selfishness

PLANT FOUR ROWS OF LETTUCE
1. Lettuce be faithful
2. Lettuce be kind
3. Lettuce be patient
4. Lettuce love one another

ADD IN A LITTLE THYME
1. Thyme for each other
2. Thyme for family
3. Thyme for friends

Love the good energy you are sending out. Gardening is truly therapy for me. And so is cultivating gratitude. :D
