Please, nobody be offended.


A little while ago Shannon told me she prayed that DH and I would get on the same page soon. It's been the source of a lot of friction, my wanting to TTC and him not, and today I decided that instead of trying to get him onto MY page, maybe I should try to get onto his. Coming here and "watching" you ladies TTC and all that is not helping. So I'm thinking that I should just step back and work on being content with the wonderful life I have right now, instead of constantly wishing for more.


I don't know why this upsets me so much. I'm actually crying right now. I'll be on every once and a while but I just can't be on all the time like usual.


I just need to get my head on straight and my priorities lined up.


And don't worry, I'll be back, once I get everything sorted out!

to you all, and truckloads of !!!!!

Brittanie,

I completely agree you need to do what is best for you and your family. It is really hard sometimes to come on here...we'll miss you though so I do hope you pop in from time to time and let us know what is going on with you.

I totally understand, but want you to know you will be missed. I am assuming you will be on other boards...am I correct? So if we don't see you around here, maybe we will catch up with you some where else. Take care Brittanie!

awe, I'm sorry! I do want to say though that you know how you're feeling, and if that's a prompting then I say explain that to your DH. I will also say, that I know you're worried about not being able to qualify for medicaid, but I also know that the limits have/will go up just like they do every year. I really wish you guys the best and hope that you can find some peace and comfort in the decision you both make together. HUGS!

aww.. i understand.. we'll miss you... this is one of my favorite quotes...

"Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. ~ Epicurus "


Think on that while you take a braek and enjoy your blessed life.

Brit, it is completely understandable. I admire you for caring about your Dh and your family so much that you are willing to put your own dream on the side for now. I know it is hard and I have been on both sides of that in my marriage.

I have to limit the amount of time I am on boards with pg ladies for the same reason you gave for needing a break from our TTC board, it makes me wish too much for what I don't have. And sometimes I have to limit the amount of time I am on JM, PERIOD.

I hope you can pop in every once in awhile and give us an update on how you are doing. We love you!
