You are so awesome! I absolutely love your updates. Fresh, raw. Real!
Hahaha you make me laugh! I hate that dang thyroid pill in the morning too! Has so many rules of when it should be taken and what it can't be taken with! Have you tried an ice pack before the PIO? That saved my backside BIG time!!!
Sounds about right. Hang in there!
Shew no wonder you're exhausted! The mental energy alone to do all that!
I'm so impressed you made it until 10pm!!! 😉
That's what I was going to say, LOL
This sounds totally normal! Thanks for your honesty and humor!
I just found your blog. Congratulations! I absolutely love that you lovingly called your husband "assface".
