project execution

on sunday july 17th, i went to spin class with stephie.  i worked out hard and felt like fainting at the end.  during class though, i kept thinking about being two days late.  since i've been tracking my periods, i noticed that i'm pretty regular (29-day cycle).  i also noticed that my nipples have been so painful in past few days.  we had plans to go to a friend's place for poker and there will be lots of alcohol for sure.  i thought i should test myself just in case since i'm going to be drinking again.  lately i've been drinking less vodka since it gives me a headache but drinking more wine to de-stress from work.  before i took a shower, i took a pregnancy test.  had to look at the instructions several times just to be sure.  that sure looks like a plus to me.  i told myself to calm down.  mik was in the living room watching tv.  i didn't want to say anything yet.  i wanted to do a 2nd test after my shower - maybe there's a glitch.  during the shower, i had mixed emotions of fear and happiness.  i found myself smiling at times but really freaked out at the same time.  after the shower, i took another test (good thing i drank a lot during spin class!) and again, it's clearly a plus.  i put them side by side then started to scream "aaaaaah!!!  honey, come in here!!!!"  mik comes in.  i point to the tests that i laid out on the side of the tub.  he's like "what does this mean?  i don't even know what this means?"  he looked at the instructions next to them.  then we hugged... and cried...  tears of joy.  we're so happy but haven't really absorbed all the information just yet! 

today is the vineman half ironman.  my bff chrissy is currently on the run portion.  i signed up with her but i pulled out.  the paris marathon is my goal this year and i already checked that off my list.  my next goal was a baby.  ironic that i would find out i'm pregnant on this day. life is funny sometimes.  couldn't be any happier.
