Day to Day Struggles

Everyday we all suffer from some kind of struggle.  Whether it be at work, eating healthy, road rage, or whatever!

Today, I have had a few struggles.  I don't normally have too many down days, but today is just one of those days.

I struggled with keeping my mouth silent to an incompetent person.  I struggled with understanding why if the doctor had not been in ALL day for Luis appointment, why NO ONE called us.  I was able to keep it together there.  Then had to go to another doctors office to see why the lab results where not sent to the doctors office we were just at.  The nurses there, accepted that they had not fulfilled their jobs and took care of everything.  Since they were not busy, I had a few questions that I had never been able to ask anyone before.  The particular nurse answered everything for me and even made an appointment for us to meet with Dr. Storment about a treatment plan.  I had to fix a small mistake that happen with the phones at the office, but luckily I was in the area, so that was not a big deal.

This is where struggles really are defined.  It's usually something very small that sets it off.  Today's struggle is infertility.  First I seen an article that a friend shared on Facebook about a woman in IN that sold her two children for sex .. the oldest was 2 and the youngest was 4 months.  She admitted to doing this several times with other men.  I struggle in the understanding of why she deserved to have one let alone two children that she could obviously care less about.  I struggle with understanding  why. Period.  Another friend made a post of a cute picture of a nursery full of newborns .. joking that with all the ice storms and snowstorms that 9 months from now is going to be pretty busy.  A few of that person's friends posted  "not us" but I posted "I hope us" .  I haven't had a day like this in a while.  I think I am just slightly overwhelmed and that is how it is coming out.

I had not made it "Facebook official" but I will announce it here, since it is obviously affecting my behavior.  Luis took a promotion and that will take us to Dallas, TX.  So we actually met with the Realtor today to put our current house for sale.  Once we get an offer for this house, we can start looking for another home in Dallas.  I had to tell my boss, and it really did break my heart to tell him.  We really make a great team, even if I do complain about him sometimes, that is what family does.  So I am in the process of hiring my replacement in hopes of training them before I leave in April.  I think the large amount of things I am dealing with has my brain down and making struggles easier to come by.

Struggles will pass as long as you stay positive and talk to someone!  I am already feeling better putting it in writing!
