Anyway… This weekend was interesting for me and My Guy. We sat down and had conversations about parenting and such. I want to send the kid to private school. My Guy thinks private school will make the child a sissy. I’ve always intended to give my children, at least everything I had. My parents weren’t rich, but there weren’t broke either. All that struggling you see black people doing on TV really didn’t apply to me. We were a lot closer to the Cosby Show than to Good Times. I expect to give them at least that and a few more of the things I’d wish I had. Every generation makes their own improvements. My intention is to evolve not regress.
I see now why people wait until they are married before having children. There is no reason for My Guy to want to please me about anything. When I was married, my husband wanted my happiness. More than that, he didn’t want to live with me when I was angry. Since My Guy doesn’t live with me, there is no motivation to compromise. I really have to accept that there will be no assistance, at least in the way that I would want, from this man unless I marry him. Deep.
I’ve begun a cleansing fast. I love when I can kill two birds with one stone. I really needed to fast prior to conception. I usually do it for 3 weeks. It screws with my ovulation dates. Since I’m currently menstruating and fasting my ovulation date will fall some time amidst August 22- September 5. That’s a long time to be sexing, but I’ll make the sacrifice. The second reason for fasting is my church has called itself to fast one day a week for 7 weeks. I knew when the pastor called the fast, I wasn’t going to be with it, but now I can attach it to my current reasoning and do it all at once. People leave you alone when you say you’re fasting for God, much more than when you’re trying to cleanse your body.
I’m reading the pregnancy books now. I’m loading up on information. I’m still going to remain a vegetarian while pregnant. Maybe not so raw (50:50). I’ve purchased liquid prenatal vitamin tonic. The books say to start taking it prior to conception. I’m drinking red clover tea (expensive). That’s supposed to be good for fertility. I’ve begun to wean myself from smoking. I’ve said only pregnancy will make me stop. It’s hard to smoke while fasting, it makes me sick. Usually when I undertake a long fast I give it up completely until the fast is over. Doesn’t bother me to give up smoking for a time when I know what the resume day will be. So I’ve dropped down to about 3/day. I’m feeling good about things, right now. Who knows what tomorrow may bring.
