AW: Pity party for me...and then some cheers [loss mentioned]

I've had a rough couple of months but I'm about ready to re-start on the whole TTC adventure again. I had a MC back in September. To all who have experienced that, I'm sorry. It's not fun. Then in Oct DH and I decided we needed a pattern-interrupt to get out of feeling sorry for ourselves. So we decided to go do something we love that we aren't be able to do if I'm pregnant -- we went dirt bike riding which I've been doing for years. And I crashed and broke my clavicle and had to have surgery to fix it. That happened the day after I gave notice at one job which meant that I got to start my new job with my arm in a sling while still needing narcotics to control the pain.

But now I'm a couple weeks in to the job, I am starting to be able to move my arm around a bit, rarely taking pain meds and most exciting of all: after my next AF I'm cleared to start TTC again which means that I'll be able to have a fun Holiday Season and start the new year feeling like I've got my normal life back again.

So -- pity party for me for just a minute because of the tough 3 months I'm just getting coming out of and then cheers for a fun holiday season and the start of a hopeful New Year.

Anyone else feeling hopeful? Please share why! I'd like to cheer you on too.

Oh no, you poor thing! I hope it was a truly epic dirt bike ride before the fall.

I'm glad the timing works out well for a good holiday break. Welcome, and good luck!

@Iputketchuponketchup Thanks for the tip. I guess that would have been the right thing to do from the beginning. Sorry 'bout that.

@triathlete23 Wow! you do have some exciting things to look forward to. I'll definitely be cheering you on! That's a very cool thing.

@rainbowbridge14 I'm sorry your hopefulness generator is broken. Sometimes that just happens and it's just the way it is, hu? I'm sorry. I wish for you to find some hope, but I know that's not always an option so instead I'll wish for you some really fun events and experiences to distract you from all this for a while.

@bunnyberry I don't know if it was exactly epic to watch but I was having a really fun day and figure it's better to do it that way than falling out of bed or something lame like that (which is what I did when I was 3 years old.... )  I think the universe thought I needed a better story than falling out of bed and gave me a motorcycle crash instead.
