What do you do to relax? - Infertility Message Board

when I get too stressed out with all this infertility thing, I like to take Yoga and body-rolling (self-massage) classes, take a pleasant bike ride with DH, read a book, chat with my TTC buddies on the Internet, and sing on my kareoke machine..

What about you?

Hi Minouche,

Believe it or not, cleaning my house relaxes me! sounds weird but I love doing it. Also, I workout a lot and have been going to the library and getting cookbooks to try out new recipes. BTW, I saw on another post that you speak portuguese. My ex-DH (definitely not dear) was 1/2 portuguese so that makes my DD part Portuguese. She is so proud of that and is always on the internet looking up things about her heritage. Still trying to locate my coconut water!

tmerone,

Does your DD speak/understands portuguese? I think Portuguese is such a beautiful language..

I totally understand your DD...My grandpa was Chinese (my mainden name is Chung), and I am always interested in anything related to China...my dream trip is going to China and visiting the Great Wall of China..

I´ve always loved learning about other languages and cultures (I started learning English when I was 8, French when I was 18, and Spanish at 25)..

I just love it!

Minouche,

No, unfortunately she does not speak or understand any portuguese. Both her grandparents were deceased before she was born. I have always wanted to learn another language and now since my second DH is Italian and his whole family speaks to each other in Italian, I was thinking of taking a night course. Another question- can you send up some of that nice florida weather? It has been rainy and cold here all week!!!! how depressing.

Learning how to relax has always been difficult for me . I'm doing yoda at least 1x a week .
