May 31, 2001
Hello ladies!
I cannot believe it is May 31st already! This year is flying by! It will be Christmas before we know it, yikes!
Today is cd13 with a high reading on my monitor. My first test was cd9 with a high reading right off the bat, so I am still unsure if the monitor is even working at all.
I took the 100mg of clomiphene cd3-7 like clockwork without even missing a dose. That is a miracle for me because I am the queen of forgetfullness! I have not had one symptom of ovulation, YET! Yet is the key word here. I am not going to lose hope this cycle although I did take a big step yesterday. Oh heck, it's a leap for me.
I scheduled my first appointment with the RE. Last month my doctor asked me if I was ready and I said "one more month, let's try the 100mg first" so he agreed. I guess in the back of mind I am hoping I will be able to cancel the appointment if we are successful this month. Wishful thinking huh?
Anyway about the RE, the lady I spoke to when scheduling the appointment was very kind. You know how you can tell by someone's voice that they are genuinely kind, well that is the impression I got.
I have to get on the ball tomorrow because I need to light a fire underneath my OB-GYN and hope he will be able to handle the insurance referral with my primary care physician. I have to get copies of all of my records and I will visit the RE on June 15th.
I got a tear jerker card from a friend whom I have lost touch with in the past few years.
Before I met Rob, Shawn and I used to country line dance several nights a week. I have to admit I do miss it because I was in such good shape and most of all I miss her friendship. I have tried to call her twice tonight but she hasn't been home. I feel like such a bad friend because she lives about 30 minutes away and I let so much time pass. I really wish there were more hours in the day and not for work. Between my job, families, household responsiblities and so on we seem to never have enough spare time in the day to just sit down and catch up with an old friend. After reading her card today, I have realized I need to make the time. Who cares if my laundry gets a little behind and so on time is precious and I intend to take full advantage of it. Ok, I am just about in tears now so I will have to change the subject.
Just like Nino, Laura and Sheryl W I have been very busy with my herb garden. Over the last few weeks we have had so much rain her in Ohio that I cannot keep up with the weeds. I finally broke down and bought some wildflower seeds with fertilizer and just filled in the open spaces with the seeds. I am hoping the wildflowers will hide the weeds so I won't spend every night bent over trying to keep up with the weeds. I cannot believe all of the volunteer tomato plants that have sprouted in my herb garden. I have never had tomatoes on this side of the yard. Last year I planted a few ~habanaro~ pepper plants in there but they did not come back. If anyone likes habanaro please let me know! I will send anyone dried peppers. Our freezer is full of frozen habanaro.
Rob is going out of town this Sunday for Microsoft training in North Carolina. We have always talked about buying land in North Carolina so he is going to check the area out and see what the job market is like. I myself being a Police dispatcher can find work virtually anywhere and I am sure Rob won't have any problem either. The IT/Networking field is growing leaps and bounds. We have been talking about putting our house up for sale after the new roof is put on in a few weeks and seeing how things pan out. I would really miss my family but we would only be 12 hours or so away. I cannot decide between the mountains or the ocean! HMMMM decisions, decisions, decisions!
Any North Carolinan's out there? My true dream is San Diego but between the ever rising power cost's on the west coast and being SO far from my family I think North Carolina will win.
Well I have already written a novel here! Sorry I jabbered on and on! To end my entry I would like to wish Tammy lots of luck and baby dust and tell Tricia I admire how you are keeping such a great and positive attitude. It will happen for each and every one of us! Whether it is natural conception,drug assisted, IVF, IUI or adoption I know that each and every women on this diary board will be a fantastic mother!
Hugs,
Carmajo
