We've suffered multiple miscarriages in the past year, and this school year 5 coworkers announced their pregnancies. I'm surrounded by pregnant women, and there are days that it just kills me. HUGS.

And normal is such a relative term anyway. I'm sorry that you've been forced to deal with such heartbreaking and overwhelming crap as of late. Just remember that we're all pulling for you :). xoxo Stupid medical bills and even more stupid life shit that you’re having to deal with. And normal is such a relative term anyway.

Sometimes I mentally shake myself - if that makes any sense - trying to remind myself how lucky I am, how much I have. But it doesn't help some days. Especially when something like with your mom's co-worker happens. One of my co-workers announced her pregnancy last week and I. Lost. My. Shit. (not in front of her). I hate how random things can bring back all the pain out of nowhere. Well, that was certainly a cheerful comment. Sorry. Dude, I’m sorry. I know what you mean.

I'd advocate face-punching, which is rarely the right course of action. I’m the wrong person to ask because I’m in an angry place right now.

I hope you can figure out something that will help you start to feel better, but don't force it. I’m sorry you’re feeling down, but I think it is normal to feel the way you do.

I'm so totally not going to send you some upbeat music right now. Because that would be illegal. Right RIAA? That's right! Ok, enough of that nonsense. Emails on the way. Oh Pants, hang in there.

I wish I could just slap people who ask anyone if they're pregnant or having kids. First off, you never ask a woman if she's pregnant. Second, the whole kids thing really isn't anyone's business, and anyone who knows you well knows about your kid status anyway. That question just crosses a social boundary, and a lot of pain could be avoided if people would just not ask. So, if you have a bicycle, I think it's fun to take a bike ride at the Jordan River Parkway. There are miles of trails, and the freedom to ride car-traffic-free! Now that the weather is possibly shaping up to an acceptable spring level, outdoor exercise should prove easier. Ugh.
