Unexpected Things In Life
So it's Valentines Day........for everyone else =( For me it's my husband's Birthday! Didn't do much....he got enough spoiling from my Mom. I decided to stay with tradition and cook him "mee yuk gook" you know, seaweed soup. I still don't know why Koreans eat that for their first meal on their B-Days.....And we just had a quiet night at home, plus we were tired from our weekend trip to Vegas.
Some of you may already know that Jhonnie and I have stopped using...ehem....protection. We're married now, so we decided it wasn't needed anymore. However, I recently signed on with Honda Corporation of America as a contractor to be their Korean Interpreter for a project they're doing.....so I will be traveling to Korea frequently in the next few months (first trip is this Saturday). Because this is such a great opportunity for us, we decided to hold off on the whole "baby making thing"......up until NOW!
Last month, we tried this conception calender thing we found on the internet, and just for fun we follwed it religiously. Due to some past medical history, it's a little harder for me to conceive( so I was told) So we weren't really expecting any results form this "conception calender". I also had a pregnancy test (Clear Blue or something like that) sitting around in our medicine cabinet, and since I'd never taken one, I thought it would be fun to try one out, besides I had to pee really bad so the timing was a bit convenient. I peed in the cup, and dipped the stick in the pee, and waited....not really concerned cause I wasn't expecting it to come out positive. Not even 1 minute (the directions say to wait a whole 3 mins), and I see the word PREGNANT. What the hay? That can't be right....that REALLY can't be right....I'm leaving for a business trip on Saturday, and we decided that having a baby right now would just get in the way of things. Plus, I still have a lot of growing up to do myself, that can't be right.
On the other hand, I was also a little concerned, because I had just had an x-ray of my tooth, and was on Vikatin and Mycin for a couple of days......I'm kinda shcared! So, I'm a mess right about now. I have this great job, job of a lifetime with lots of dollar signs, and I might be pregnant? I don't know for sure, gonna have to start calling around to see which doctor has an immediate opening to see me, and then, I guess I'll have to go from there.
It's just uncanny to me, when were trying, we weren't getting any results, and now that we've put it on hold to pursue my dreams....we may be unexpectedly pregnant. Sometimes, I just don't know what to do with these Unexpected Things that life throws at me. Don't get me wrong, If I am pregnant, it'll be a wonderful blessing, but at the same time, I thought this new project with Honda was a wonderful blessing. I guess I'll find out for sure sometime this week, but as for now......Honda doesnt have to know, so sshhhh!
