Pokey has started - Lucrin phrase 1

I am totally in love with my no-pay leave.  It is the best decision that I have made.  My pace of life has slowed down and I am spending more time appreciating things around me and enjoying the present moment. Surprisingly my days are quite packed, possibly because of the year-end festivities and my 2-week holidays.  And now it is chinese new year preparations!

I am still seeing my TCM doctor and my pulse has consistently strengthened since I stopped work.  I even joked with her that I am allergic to work =)  Well, I am getting more sleep and rest.  I feel more at peace with myself.  I don't control my diet that much these days, having a coke once every 3 days.  However, I am drinking more ginger+red date+longan drink.  I got those from Taiwan which supposedly has very good ginger =P

2 days ago, I started my Lucrin injections and it will last for 2 weeks before my next appointment in mid-Feb.  Walking down the dull coridoor of the IVF centre instilled a sense of fear and uncertainty in me.  I am definitely not looking forward to the daily jabs, the operation and the more intense bout of OHSS.  But whatever will be will be.  It is all in God's hands and his plans for me.

On a separate note, thankfully I don't have strong side effects from the Lucrin jabs.  I do get a bit of bone aches but nothing serious.
