overdue (but not the way you think)
See, I couldn’t put this title without a clarification — according to FemCal my period is due today, but given how much my luteal phase length varies depending on vitamin B6 (on), progesterone (off) and perhaps other factors, that doesn’t mean particularly much. No, the thing I’m waiting for is an answer regarding money I’ve applied for, work-wise. The estimated date for getting back to us isn’t really long ago, so it might not mean anything that I haven’t heard from them… but I’m kind of hopeful, nevertheless (and scared that blogging about it will jinx my chances) — see, it’s just like with the bloody period.
I haven’t been around much, and it likely won’t change for a while, as we’ll be moving soon. Lots and lots (and lots) of stuff to do, I kind of don’t know how my head is supposed to handle it all. While sorting through my clothes I found a cardigan… a maternity cardigan. Bought in blissful times when I though I’d be glowing and happy. Years and years ago, when I was still on the pill and far from married. I had forgotten about it. And, maybe, forgotten about the carefree girl I once was.
I decided to keep it, just in case.
I’m hopeful… For the overdue period, for the overdue money, and for that cardigan. I hope you can wear it soon…
Definitely keep the cardigan. If you liked it enough to put it away all those years ago, you should hang onto it. Hopefully you’ll be wearing it soon!
I hope you get the news you are hoping for on all counts. I think it’s great that you held onto the cardigan. You WILL need it.
I think it’s wonderful that you kept the cardigan! There’s not a thing wrong with a hopeful symbol.
Good luck with all the stuff you’ve got to get done–you’ll manage it just fine!
Any word on your period? Hopefully it’s stayed away with good reason!
I’m glad you kept it. It was the right thing to do. Am crossing fingers for a positive answer, and also for your move.
