It Should Be Official Soon

This has been as bad as dealing with infertility treatments! We signed the contract with some agreed upon changes on Tuesday at 8 AM, but the other party finally signed for the changes last night. They made one last change last night, that is being sent over to us to initial right now via fax. This does still have a 30-day (expires 4/20/06) contingency on them getting a contract on their house. They have to do the home inspection prior to 3/31/06. The closing date will be 5/10/06. The realtor said we should be fine moving all the furniture after the home inspection is over, so I'll be calling to setup a date for the first week of April.

On the other front, AF started today, right on time.... Ack! I didn't expect any different. Tom and I were fighting a lot during the big O timeframe this month. All moving stuff. Just want it to be done. We're all better now.

And we got our Phoebe back on Tuesday night! We missed her so much! It's so nice to have her back with us. She starts her next session of ice skating tomorrow, right after we meet with our accountant...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head. I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true. This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either. Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure. I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week. This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...
