7dp5dt

Today is a good day. Although it's freezing outside, the sun is shining and the air is crisp.

I haven't felt any symptoms since the avalanche of two days ago. However, my acupuncturist reminded me at yesterday's appointment that there are usually no early pregnancy symptoms to be felt until at least after a positive test. Somewhere in my brain I know that; it's just hard to remember those kinds of details when I'm constantly subconsciously scanning my body for any sign of new life.

Today is 7dp5dt. I've been fairly successful at putting thoughts of peeing on a stick out of my head for the most part; but when that urge hits me it comes on strong. All and all, I feel pretty good today, though. Despite being cross-eyed and a little bonkers from the 2WW, I'm pretty much okay.

I have to get ready to go to a funeral now. My great-uncle passed away earlier this week. He was 84. It's a sad occasion but a nice distraction (I hate to say) from all that's going on in my head these days. It's nice to get out of my head for a while.

My regrets to your family for your loss.

Have you found any good books or games to keep you busy in this treacherous 2WW? I have a handheld tetris game that I take with my everywhere and never get sick of.

My condolences for your loss.

And your acupuncturist? Totally wrong in my case...I just didn't realize what I was feeling.
