Saturdays Post!

I noticed below that someone mentioned that they could not find the "positive thinking excersises" that I had posted previously and I had said that they were "below" only to realize that they were burried under the posts as they were written in an older post. So i guess I have copied and pasted it for those of you who might be interested in reading it, and could not locate it as well!

POSITIVE THINKING - TIP/TRICK

I also wanted to post about "positive energy". I do believe in the "laws of attraction" so if you have not read or watched "the secret" you might find it beneficial. I do believe that you can "control" the positive and negative energy. We all have this gift, and when focusing on something "negative" or a "hurdle" in your life you tend to bring more negative in. When you focus on the positive aspects of your life, you tend to allow more positiveness in your life. You will see a shift. This goes with ttc as well. When your so worried about not being able to concieve, you actually limit your ability. Your body reacts and litterally its going to be hard to concieve. When you alter your thinking you can alter this as well.For example:What I tell people is as followsafter having sex with your husband, stay in bed with your hips elevated for 20 minutes. Do not get out of bed until this time. With your eyes closed, I want you to envision the sperm going up and into your urterus, and envision the sperm metting up with your egg, and getting inside. After you have pictured this, say in your mind "this is my month to concieve. I feel relaxed and at peace. I am ready for this baby".. etc. I want you to do this at least three times... You can do this every time you have sex if you like, but its most important at your approx time for ovulation.your mind is a powerful thing.. you will be amazed at what you will accomplish. I think that you need to also cut out pictures of babies, and put on your fridge. these are positive goals, ways to set your mind forward.. positive thinking....When I did this, it was the month I concieved my daughter. (now almost 4). I know a few other women who have tried this, and had much success as well.!

In an update, I attended the wake on Friday for a family I knew. Their step father died on Saturday and no one knew it was going to happen. I did not know the step dad extremely well but went there out of the respect for the family I have known for MANY years. The time I cried was giving the three daughters and their mother a hug. To see the pain and anguish in their eyes and feel it radiating from theirselves. What do you say to someone who just lost a loved one?

I am still working on catching up. I managed to do 14 predictions tonight alone after putting my daughter to bed, so that is a start. I am hoping to do the same tomorrow night as well.

During the days I have been working at home, I have still taken my daughter to daycare. I always go and pick her up a bit early though so she too benefits from me working at home. i know that If I kept her home while I was home, i would not get any work done. Shes still at the stage where she calls me every 5 minutes from the living room ( a stones throw from the computer room) to tell me she loves me, but insists that I come into the living room to see her)

On Tuesday I hurt my jaw, I was eating smarties (okay have a sweet tooth and like my chocolate!) and felt a "twinge" or muscle spasm in the right side of my face. Right between my jaw line and ear, and its still hurts! If I eat anything too "hard" or have to chew it too much it starts to ache and is swollen. I paniced at first when I saw how swollen the side of my head was, but my husbnd insisted that i take these muscle relaxors and that it would help. Thursday at my day job, I managed to only be able to eat 1/4 of my bowl of cereal because it hurt, took two musle relaxors and then felt "stoned' the morning while I was at work. I could not really remember much, walked around in a daze and just felt really out of it! Learned my lesson! lol

That morning had told my daughter and my husbnad that my head felt stuffed up (because fo the swelling) and my daughter said "then dont eat anymore" thinking stuffed=full belly idea!

I took my daughter to an amusement part not far, and she and I took pictures of each other. They are located on the side bar to the right:) Check it out!

Best wishes to you all:)
