dont know if i can help much, my AWW (awesome wonderful wife) LOL says im kind of odd in how i handle things. as i stated in another post in here... things are the way they are and no amount of fretting over anything will help. we are somewhat TTC but fall short of any heroic measures. im sure everyone is different but me personally im an extremely pragmatic person in my thinking. i dont know if nik will obsess over this or not, i can say with me that she doesn't. if it comes up as a relevant part of a conversation then okay fine... but its not something we discuss frequently as its impact on our lives and relationship is quite insignificant. i have a moustache and full beard, the sky is blue, she has PCOS... so be it.

there are times i can tell it gets her down. i dont allow those moments to last long. i have this uncanny ability to act like five year old in such a way as to make even the most puritanical prude bust out laughing. the kid issue gets to her sometimes too and i feel like a broken record sometimes reassuring her that i genuinely dont care. she doesnt need to have a child to make our lives complete. we have each other and thats more than enough. if indeed we were to be blessed with such then hey... awesome,,, but if not... oh well.

focus on today beacuse thats all that matters. you have no guarantee that tomorrow will even come so why waste the effort on fussing on the hypothetical and that upon which you have no control.

think of the serenity prayer, i know its become cliche' but it helps.
and if you must replace the God with whatever you choose, be it a tree, a frog, the little garden gnome statue in your flower beds outside... no matter...

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change,
the courage to change the things that i can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.
