Clomid Day 1

It's day 3, and that means time for clomid!  I've been loving the way my body has felt without clomid for the past few months, and so I am kind of dreading this part.  But if this is what has to be done... so be it.  Today I feel pretty good.  I exercised this morning (despite being tired after having some wine last night) and am going for a walk with a friend this evening.  I've eaten healthy most of this week.  I've been trying to get enough rest, and that makes a huge difference!  I've even been limiting my caffeine intake to 2 cups per day (one coffee, one tea).   I spoke to the ladies at the fertility clinic and we are a go ahead for this month!  They even said I don't have to come for the baseline scan since I live so far away (3 hours).  I'm going in on day 11 for a check-up to see how it's progressing, and then hopefully back a few days later for the IUI.  I am super stoked!

AND... best of all, DH got into go-mode today!  We are having a garage sale this weekend to de-clutter our house.  Today he finally insured our unused car (we're selling it), put in a new battery, put on a new tire (since one was flat), and arranged to take it into the shop for a check-up.  Then he told me that he's planning to take one of his weeks of holidays to do things around the house!!!  Just maintenance like painting the deck, staining the fence, etc.  Holy moly!  I asked him to explain to me how he works, because I just didn't get why he was totally "into" this all of a sudden.  He said it was simple.  Before he can start a job, he has to take the whole thing into consideration and come up with a plan of action.  Until he has that plan, he won't start the job.  He will contemplate and think about it, but not do it.  Once the plan is in place, he starts and gets things done in record time.  And that's that.  Hopefully I'll remember this and take it to account next time we need to get something done around the house.  :)
