Simply Stupid

I wish I could wear a sign that says "Infertility is not a relaxation problem!"

People are absolutely ignorant. I'm could not keep track of how many people tell me to relax and then I'll get pregnant. No amount of relaxation is going to fix either of our "mechanical problems". For instance, if I had ovarian cancer....are people going to tell me to just relax and it'll go away on it's own? Of course not. So, why are people ignorant about infertility?

Both R and I have come to the conclusion that we're so open about our struggle with infertility, because we want people to be aware of how insensitive they can be and what infertility REALLY entails.

:::: THE Job ::::

So, I started my new job this week....

I miss my kids - my preschoolers. I didn't realize how much fun my job was until I'm sitting at a desk all day. I'm not complaining...I mean, I chose to take the job. I think I'll like for working for the largest trauma hospital in downstate Illinois. I'll have lots of options for transferring throughout the hospital and their affiliates later on. It's definitely different than teaching.

One of these days I'll go back to school and get my Bachelor's degree. I'm sure I could use my degree in Social Work at the hospital somehow. I'm excited for this new journey!
