Taco Salad

Last night Troy and I were not up for cooking at all but the idea of facing a fast food anything was daunting and made me sick to my stomach just thinking about it. We had ground turkey meat thawed so we need to use it and some lettuce that was going to go south pretty soon if not used. So I thought to make taco salad! Here was what was in it:

1 lb ground turkey
1 head of lettuce
1 can of kidney beans
salsa
shredded cheese
sour cream

Troy grilled up the turkey and seasoned it with all seasoning salt, threw it on top of a bed of lettuce, added heated kidney beans, cold salsa, cheese and sour cream. It was delicious and I didn't even add any dressing on it! The toppings were perfect! I would have liked Avocado on top as well but didn't have any of that on hand.

I have been reading so many blogs lately from other people who suffer from some kind of infertility or fertility problems and I am feeling relief. I am following this one blog who had a different kind of infertility as mine and paid over $100,00 before she conceived her twins. Then she tried to get pregnant again with the rest of her frozen eggs and conceived one baby that sadly miscarried. A few months later after giving up and being satisfied with their twin boy and girl... they got pregnant  by themselves with another set of twins! Boys! I couldn't believe it. She has funny antics about being infertile, life with 2 sets of twins, and being married and dealing with health issues. Although it is reassuring that it will happen for me too it is scary to think that it cost her $100,000, money which I do not have the luxury of spending on IVF. But alas, there is hope.

I am also hoping that I am PMS'ing right now. This may sound strange but I have had the most terrible mood swings and if looks could kill Troy would have been dead three days ago. Mood swings, anger, and emotional outbursts of anger and tears for really no great reason. "Troy, you left the light on in the kitchen! How could you do this? You know this costs money, which we don't have. You want to see the electricity bill? Do you ever listen to me?!".... seriously... over turning off the light. I am also hoping to be PMS'ing so I can have a period and start my treatment plan. Patience is the hardest thing to have.
