Running down a dream

I ran today. And it felt good. I didn't worry that I was getting too hot or that my heart rate was out of control. I enjoyed pushing my body. My boobs didn't hurt either. But my heart is still broken. And running won't fix that. But it does make me feel better for a short time.

I'm patiently waiting to see if I ovulate this cycle. I just want to hurry and get through this icky cycle so that I can start my Clomid. This could possibly be the first time since beginning our TTC journey that I am anxious for AF to show up so that I can move on.

I got my Christmas tree up. It makes me smile when I look at it. Each ornament has special meaning, so I enjoyed putting them all on.












And here is our mantle, all ready for Santa.



My two most favorite ornaments:
This is the one I bought while we were on our honeymoon in St Lucia. This will be our very first Christmas as husband and wife. I'm so blessed to have my sweet husband to spend Christmas with.



And my tribute to my alma mater: Louisiana Tech University. I loved my years at Tech. Until now, they were some of the best of my life. Tech and all my friends and memories from those days will always hold a special place in my heart. As will this ornament.
